Your Last Solo in Whatever

thank you yup, the recoil thingie plus the mag upgrade with a top tier incendiary sprinkled on top. not much in the way of getting up close and personal or the overall finesse, just the good ole spray and pray mixed in with the cheesy-cheese-cheese for all the armour. seems to have done the trick. i generally don't mind them bugsies much, sure like them better than certain other factions, and the challenge being quite interesting overall but it still gonna be a while before any rerun attempts... just the hurrdur gave a few sudden flashbacks back to the n7.1

wave 7 8 and 9 are real nightmares, primes are cross sniping me even behind cover (i got shot while at full cloaked speed as soon as i left cover around a corner, fucking cheaters), waves take forever
W10 is going to hell, i lost all but 1 gel, no ops, nothing but few miracles, fucking primes camp, all missiles
w11 spawns on my trench coat, gives me an edge for the first 30 sec but i got crushed later on, gel, instant crush and instant stomp with 10 sec left... 57 mins felt like 100

God, that s my worst

Felt good enough today to try for my unicorn (a flawless Platinum solo TGI/Harrier vs trollectors on Giant). The result was not so bad given the huge pause I've taken...

82 minutes   I once had a 80+ Platinum Reaper solo on Condor with a Phaeston Cabal and it felt exhausting. 

It's a little above the average for an old scrub like me :




I beg to differ, TNS, compared to my other tries this was quite easy and I would have probably done it except the target Banshee on W10 was the shy one, took me almost 45s to get to her... 

Platinum Collectors wave 2 deserves a nuke, doesn't it? I'm fed up with triple scions in Glacier's tight corridors.

No. Take your time with collectors. It's so much more satisfying that way!
Tight corridors make it even better!

Be prepared to take it from all sides, then.

Tried to speedrun. First try: Old Glacier/Cerberus/Gold, near acceptable gameplay, 18:57. Second try: same but on the new Glacier and with abysmal gameplay, including not a single good nuke. 18:27. Idk. What's the best nuking strategy? Should I nuke big enemy groups on sight or rather cleanup? On which waves?

QFI, Crusader. Is it better to try and force spawns or to wait for the things to unfold? What are the details of the nuking corner you discovered? Should I stand right in the corner or a bit to the right? Look right forward or at an angle to the side or below?

Here we go. Didn't even have to grind. Newton (?) said that we see far because we stand on the shoulders of giants. Establishing this time feels that way. The nuked spawns weren't the best possible, but I believe better than what I'd have without the trick and I needed to keep the basement. During the extraction, my heart was beating so strong that I barely could aim. Never speedrun hungry XD.

And Crusader, my God. Even as an SP scrub unaware of this weapon's power, I kept equipping Tali with it so that she stays at long range (that's how the squadmate AI works). Now it's like a roleplay. 10 WS is like a cherry on the top.
