Has Anyone Completed This Event Solo?

[Nira]

I've got to 13 on my own but think I may have to join some others to get the last two runs. I've been doing stealth runs with Loki Prime plus Dread, Despair and Glaive Prime, but virtually no shields, halved health pool and three seconds of invisibility (down from about 27) aren't really a viable option. I also used Frost Prime (mostly for the armour rating and freeze abilities) and Trinity (for obvious reasons) but found them just as hard going.

 

I'm curious, did anyone get all 15 on their own? If so, what did you use?

I've done it solo. I used a Loki, but no ability mods. Anything and everything to make me move fast.

solo with rhino prime, boltor prime and energy restores

My usual Valkyr with Rage/Life Strike build. Since armor and life steal aren't affected by the reductions, and Valkyr's Armor with Steel Fiber allows her to tank even with just 200 health, I managed to solo all 15 points.

 

Edit: Best thing is that I used Valkyr because I needed to level her up after putting a Forma in. So she was only level 25 when I got that 15th point.

Playing with ppl for too long makes me feel insecure to play by myself these days. All of them are done with pugs, I'm ashamed ._.

I just finished my 15th run solo.

 

I did the first 10 with a strength + duration Nova and then the last five with a health and shield based Zephyr, with the last five you really need to optimise your weapons as your warframe itself will not carry you in any way.

I finished mine solo

I used a loki on my runs, e 3 second invis was only used for running away really lol. My loadout was paris prime, akbolto, dakra prime

Pretty sure if I tried that I'd fail pretty horribly :P But props to ya.

 

I considered Zephyr but with the range and duration debuffs I figured Turbulence would be all but useless. Looks like Valkyr and a half-decent hitscan weapon are the way to do it. My frame rate isn't very good (playing on a laptop) so trying to land Dread shots on the twins on the Ceres tileset was never gonna end well :P

 

I'm sure Rhino would be a good option but I don't enjoy using him, really not my style.

if solo also means just joining and leave your pc solo then yea, i guess lots of people did that

Solo'd mine. You're now at the dreaded 13th exposure point, where things get REALLY frustrating. Grab a frame with good HP and stack the two HP mods if you have them... dash past the Infested, cower behind boxes during the portal sequence, and pray to the gods when you fight the bosses... ... ... corrosive+explosive Brakk and Boltor Prime ended up being my setup. 

...go for the sniper lady first, because you can easily dodge the melee one, but the sniper shots will wreck you if you don't stop her. I died several times and had to switch my frame for the final run to get another 4 revives...(used Oberon for the 14th run and Zephyr for the 15th XD)

Hehehe. Funny 'cause it's true.

You just described my last two runs quite accurately :D I actually found myself getting quite frustrated for the last few. Probably something to do with being reminded we're not invincible in this game, though it often feels that way. I didn't enjoy having my @ss repeatedly handed to me by the sisters and her cronies, but I did quite enjoy using cover and having to place myself tactically and make every shot count.

 

So, the Sheev! But that's for another time.

I did my runs solo, first 10 with Zephyr, last 5 with Rhino. It helped that I was using the Phage; took only a few hits even at the highest levels to kill the jetpack twins. :P At around 12 runs I started doubting if I could make it, but I resorted to speeding through the level and finished just fine.

1) Going melee with Reflex Guard helps a lot

2) Armor mitigation isn't reduced (hint hint Valkyr)

3) Rage+QT works as expected (Not amazing without lots of Vital but QT still provides lots of ehp)

4) Handspring makes taking the bosses out easy as you're back up before they're out of their stagger
