Thank you very much for those tips. I watched some of the videos and damn, it takes a lot patience to do a solo on Platinum. I am not on that level yet with my equipment and probably skills, for me Hacking and Upload even on Gold are just too hard, retarded Berserkers always know where I am even if i cloak at the other end of the map and run they always come and molest me with their flak cannon... Yes, patience is key with Platinum solos. With three objectives, you have to get lucky and hope for Retrieval or Devices, with the occasional Boss. Hacks and Uploads are almost impossible. With Gold and Berserkers, there are only two Berserkers at most on Waves 2-6 (unlimited on Wave 7), so one option is to get rid of them first before going to the Hack and Upload circles. Even still, you might get a circle where the enemies spawn right around the corner or have too many entrances for you to lock down.

Proud to join the solo survivors club, for the first time I made it alone through Gold and Kett. The Goddess of Objectives was very merciful as I had retrieval/devices/devices. I did it with Asari Huntress with PAW X and Rozerad X (siphon and concussive where are you?!), no boosters. I even had 2 self-revive packs left, no cobra, survival pack or ammo used. I am waiting for +200% weak point platinium mission to try to solo it So frustrating, I have been grinding for the PAW variants and Jumbo Premium Packs drops like 20 boosters, 1 common character, 1 common weapon an 2 consumables ;( The drop rate of UR is dramatically low at this point... Even UR characters got stuck at X (Krogan Gladiator is the only exception - V)...

At this point, the P.A.W. Siphon is the only one that I want at X, but it is stuck at VIII.

Oh yeah, silly me! Wave 3 and 6 is obviously 2 objectives, I have always been bad at math I am sure it was Gold and in that case Retrieval/Devices. Very easy with cloak. I researched it a little and I found out on some fandom that Unless my Krogan Gladiator reaches rank X i won't progress with my other Ultra Rare characters, some extra threshold they put. But yesterday I maxed out all the uncommon weapons (yes, since the beginning I have been buying only Jumbo Packs and that way my Rares were the first one to get maxed out) so hopefully the rest of Ultra Rares and Siphon/Concussive is coming soon! I always wondered about the Bulwark variant, I don't seem to see many people use it... Is it really worth anything?

Had nice Gold solo on Icebreaker. Wave 3 hack, wave 6 devices. Only used few Cobras for cleanup after finished devices, no other consumables were used.

If everyone hunkers down in one spot and if there are other characters that provide a bonus to shield regen, shields, or damage resistance (think Krogans in Rage), a Bulwark weapon might be useful. In most cases, however, it just means you have 10 more variants to drop from your packs.

Yeah obviously it's useless in solo since it provides it's effect only in proximity to other players. I was just curious how it feels, like do you really feel the kick to regen from it? I might try it out but I cant seem to get rid of my PAW / Dhan Siphon / Black Widow Concussive triio, those are my favourites! Then there is Inferno but I am still waiting for variants. I kind of gre to like the Rozerad recently too.

I kind of gre to like the Rozerad recently too. 100DR is 50% incoming damage reduction. Max DR with 3 players around and a Bulwark variant at X is 50. You'll feel it a little bit, but it's not your character is going to become a Juggernaut or anything. Your shields won't recharge fast enough if multiple enemies are targeting you. Not like it's going to happen, but Bulwark weapons should have given you a boost in max shields, shield/health regen, and damage resistance to make it a viable choice over Siphon and Concussive variants.

...yeah and somehow I am waiting more eagerly for PAW Siphon and PAW Concussive than Bulwark I wonder if there are some other predefined drop rate rules like the one that UR rank XI-XX cards won't drop until all your UR characters are at least rank X. It's been a very long while and a dozen of Jumbo Premium Packs since I got any UR variant and that's all I have left to max everything out (and UR characters of course).

The only ones that I know of that still are in effect are: - At least one UR for every 2 Jumbo Premium Packs - At least one UR for every 10 Premium Packs There used to be a 1 UR for every 20 Expert packs, but I believe that was turned off by Bioware several years ago.

Two Powers-Only (and Melee) solos for your viewing pleasure.
Turian Havoc Powers-Only Platinum Solo against Kett on Firebase Sandstorm
Features a tough Wave 6 Boss objective where the second target (Anointed) was playing hide and sneak.
Human Vanguard Powers-Only Gold Solo against Outlaw on Firebase Icebreaker
Features a Wave 6 Upload. Vanguard was specced as a glass cannon with just one point in fitness.
