A small guide to solo necramechs

[MomoButt]

Disclaimer, I'm not the greatest minmaxer, I don't like minmaxing either so this is just cobbled together with the equipment I have (altho they are all forma'd beyond belief and made for endgame)

There are possibly, probably even better ways of doing this, faster too, but this is the easiest I can find out of my strategies and works in 90% of cases, unless you get screwed at the 3 mech fight

 

 

Incase people wanna solo them, which i don't recommend at all but if you have the gear for it and just wanna do it alone

Loadout is precision, crit based, rapid fire weapons (tenora as primary for example, aksomati prime as secondary, whatever melee, prefferably good against tanky groups like a hybrid zaw)

Inaros (prime) with arcane grace and adaptation, max tonk build

A pet that gives ammo/ammo mutation, I use the digging kubrow as it generates loads of ammo in times you need to retreat and can be revived, recommend bleedout increase mods

 

Before starting the fight check every inch of the room you can for scintillants, I've gotten a few from just looking around, but they're hard to spot, if you can't find one or after finding one start the fight

Can also confirm mechs drop them, I have no clue on the chance tho, only gotten one to drop so far after the associated hotfix

 

Basic strat is to blow it's melee arm off, this makes it's slow unusable and makes it easier to target, then the gun arm, the weapon is actually quite weak and just procs grace and adaptation, regardless of shroud or not fire at their shoulders, it won't reflect damage (this is why precision is needed) and will eat up the shield doing so (operators work too but dashing locks abilities and their DPS is mediocre at best to the mechs)

After both arms are broken STAND RIGHT IN ITS FACE and aim between it's left grenade tube and it's left thigh, you'll see it's weakpoint stick out, the closer to the body the more DPS but the more risk of reflect damage when the shield activates, with aksomati prime you can take it down in roughly 20 seconds if it doesnt shuffle about too much, if it does shuffle, follow it like you're hugging it, once it's still again continue firing

Your dog will go down, this is why bleedout is necesary so you can deal damage and AFTERWARDS retreat and revive your dog

 

It gets messy with multiple tho, try to single one out by getting others distracted with infested or finding any opening at all, if low on ammo, retreat with your dog to gain it back, if the dog goes down before both arms are dead, retreat, let it TP by entering another room and revive it so it doesn't die

The mines are an issue but you should be able to facetank a barrage, and heal up between them with grace

Necraweb will always suck, wall piercing 50M radius 90% slow, this is why the left arm goes first but with multiple, specifically 3 you just need to either bite the bullet and deal DPS anyway or run away and regen ammo/health until it runs out

 

Now that the softlocks and void dash lock are fixed this is also much easier

 

I have also attempted with ash's invis and while it functions and prevents their slow and shield constantly being up they WILL activate their shield when taking damage, this ontop of their turn speed and erratic movement makes it so you'll probably kys on their reflect, octavia might work, haven't tried, but the same issue applies, inaros has the health pool with grace to tank the rapid fire hits

 

Magus lockdown is recommended now that the permalock is fixed IF you wanna do the vault door too, otherwise it's not that necesary, school tree I keep forgetting to change, madurai is probably the best for this or vazarin for regen, just remember that being near them will reset and lock abilities upon void dashing (they also have adaptive CC resistance similar to thumpers)
