Gold Solo Speedrun Hall of Fame (Under New Ownership)

One word. Bees.

You never can tell with bees.

My go to Huntress build is power amped and fitess free. Bees become a nuisance in solos, still manageable, unless you get pressed for time. But since i succumbed to the dark side and started using cyclonics i guess that will again be a nt so much of an issue. But i think my first redo will be vs Rippaz anyways they're underrepresented at the mo.

DistigousForest , come on bud join the fun and run one yourself. dis never enough Claymoared Huntress i reckon. also if you knock about 11 minutes off the current time you'd move your platform up the ladder too!

That's because they take forever and they're units are worth shit, though Huntress won't be so bad with DC and Warp and Warp IV on Ravs and Brutes. Not as bad a Geth so you've got that going for you.


I'll give it a go again because Xbox is terribly represented there. I had a few sub-30 runs with the Crusader last year, but all got screwed by wave 10 Devices. GS, Cyclonic IV is the way I'm gonna go. Oh yea, and CLAYMORE.

Congrats bud, very decent runs! well done you!! I know what you're saying about the AJA run and i'm sure you can close the gap with ease. Hack glitch or no hack glitch. And yeah there's quite a few categories that are so uhm... _tight_ by now and with some insane times across the ladder. Places someone like me out of contention inb4 even trying. Sort of is the whole purpose of course. So. Either me needs to git gud, which ain't gonna happen i know that i hit my skill ceiling and quite a while back too, or keep skirting about rummaging for some left open spots to claim heheheh

OK, I have to ask. Is in-game profiler use allowed?

i would say it s intel written on screen or even more ? Anyway i havent noticed anything in your vids burningcherry ?

I'd say no. Part of the meta of solo speedrunning is managing spawn budgets and being aware of enemies left on stage, so having that information available in a readout gives an advantage over a solo player not using a profiler.

I have no particular opinion for or against it so I'm good either way if we all agree.

I also assume that anyone who can speedrun a solo pretty much have the wave budget memorized so I don't know how much help that overlay actually gives. In case someone is still missing some info, here are some pics of Cyonan's wave budget spreadsheets:

I updated this thread. It may not be frequent, but I do in fact still update this thread.

Also, someone please do a human soldier solo, there are still only nine entries.  I'd just do it myself but I don't know what that is, the only soldiers in my game seem to be Turians. 

do it sub 25 so that i could kick that scrub Loufi out of it (loufi not on here ? not really funny then)

I don't think he's been here for a while now. Anyway, it'd have to be 2 sub-25 solos to boot him since there's only 9 there now.

Because this matter was brought up in another thread and I'm unsure... technically, all my submissions here were done with the use of two Coalesced-level key rebindings. One is the standard omni key split, the other works on the same principle and defines a key that immediately fires the heavy melee command (you can see it in action in the QMI run at 3:15). Now I don't know if this doesn't invalidate my runs and it's probably your decision.

_{BioWare was o.k. with the first modification and I believe the second one allows for a better synchronization of turianhugs if that's an argument}
