Gryffindor did it in 15:48! Definitely worthy of being in the hall of fame.
This is very suspicious. On PC you can reduce enemies damage output multiplier and increase your damage multiplier. He/she should have died from Ascendants orb numerous times, also health leeching is too fast and Flak Cannon is dealing too much damage to armor with stun evo.
I agree, looks like some hax going on there. Sub 20 platinum solo is very very hard to do, everything must go pretty much perfect.

I had to be very careful to manage my consumables throughout the match so that I had enough to survive whatever came on Wave 6 and at Extraction. This was a tough match for me to solo with the hovering Turian Havoc Trooper. I think Kett is the hardest faction for this hovering Turian because the Ascendant's Orb attack is so damaging by virtue of ignoring your character’s damage reduction.
A Power Efficiency Mod III and Turbocharge 4A Recharge meant I could cast Turbocharge every 10.8 seconds instead of the usual 16.7 seconds.
For the moment, I'll stick to the current, compact form, but if/when we reach certain milestones (such as 100 solos, 1000 and so on), I'll add new things, like statistics, completionist categories, more search functions, and eventually the division by classes like in ME3 PHOF.
Hope you like! As always, all feedback is very welcome (though it might take me time to implement big changes).
Great job. I'll go about getting my earlier solos recorded here so you can add them to the list. Thanks for your hard work getting this up and running!

If your lists of gold and plat solos have all the info that normally goes into a submission, I can just archive them directly from the links in your signature? Of course, if you want to post them here anyway, you're more than welcome.

Yes, all of the info is there, although you'll have to click on the description link (under the character name) to find the date of the submission. Thanks!

OK, finally got lucky with objectives and finished Platinum solo earlier today. :exicted: I screwed up with recording and pressed instant replay instead manual recording, so screenshot must suffice...

i.e. how much dumb crap can I pull in w10 to ensure that I missed sub13. Not interested much in grinding andromeda solos though so I'll just leave it be. I really just wanted a gold solo entry on current patch, unlike the ancient stuff I posted upthread.
Tried a few plat solos on sandstorm but got w6 uploads three attempts in a row and just couldn't be bothered to do anything but quit.
I remember watching ur plat solos in me3mp times..dear lord, i soloed a lot i mean lot of me3mp plat, but never got even closed to ur times..so much respect from here

Congrats! To be honest, soloing in MEA seems much more daunting than soloing in ME3, so in my eyes this is a great achievement. And I'm sure it won't be your last.

Thank you. It's those damn Uploads and Hacks, with good movement and Siphon variants enemies aren't that hard. About another Platinum solo... Time will tell...

My first Andromeda solo, I guess. I couldn't find any games via quickmatch. I actually want to play this game more than ME3 MP, for the time. I especially like this human commando kit. But almost never being able to find online matches is a serious hindrance.

Welcome to MEA HOF! Good to see you here, even if soloing wasn't your original intention. What you say is pretty discouraging. I've been thinking about giving this game another chance myself, but what's the point if it's dead?

In fairness I think this game seems to have region-based matchmaking of some sort. So I think that's my issue more than anything else. If you live in the NA/EU it might not be so dead.
If I use a NA/EU VPN then I get a bit more luck with finding matches, but then it's difficult to play because of the poor connection quality.
I do think the game is fun for what it is. Initially I didn't like it and put it down, but I gave it another shot and it grew on me.

Nice time. What region are you? If you aren't far from Europe lag shouldn't be bad.
Middle East. European hosts can be kind of a mixed bag for me.
My turkish friend said the same about my hosting lobbies. Sometimes he had great time, sometimes he had some lag problems..

It seems that even with good host, if someone with bad connection is in the lobby lag spreads to all players. Happens to me when I play with US and Canada hosts with good internet speeds; all is good when we are in private lobby, but when lobby is public sometimes we experience heavy lag. There is also host's PC, if it isn't strong enough to process everything you can experience lag spikes.
Angara Avenger Madawot | 6 August 2018 | 49:53 | Icebreaker | Kett | Platinum | N7 Crusader Siphon and P.A.W. Siphon | Retrieval, Retrieval, Devices | Xbox
Here’s another melee-centric Angara Avenger Platinum solo on Firebase Icebreaker with the Dampened Powers mission modifier. I found this mission to be a little bit easier than my first melee-focused solo on Firebase Nimbus (https://youtu.be/v24BjYddmu4).
* Sticky Grenades: 4A * Stealth Grid: 4A 5A 6B * Avenger Strike: 4B 5B 6A * APEX Training: 4B * Bioelectric Defense: 4A 5B 6A * N7 Crusader Siphon III with Heavy Melee Mod * P.A.W. Siphon II * Grenade Capacity * Strength Enhancer IV * Power Efficiency Mod III
By isolating the infantry-level enemies on the map, such as Anointed, Destined, and Saboteurs, I could safely Avenger Strike and melee without fear of getting shot. Cast while cloaked, Avenger Strike 6A Disrupting Strike would strip shields and stun the enemy for several seconds. Two swipes from my Angaran Firaan, and the target would be neutralized. Berserkers took a few more swipes, but I could eliminate them before Disrupting Strike’s stun wore off.
Strength Enhancer IV and the N7 Crusader’s Heavy Melee Mod allowed me to dish out some serious melee damage:
* 3308 damage to shielded enemies under cloak via Avenger Strike. This was enough to strip the shields off of Anointed, Destined, and Saboteurs (1688-3037.5 shields for Destined, Anointed, and Saboteurs) * 2008 damage against health out of cloak (3375-3796.8 health for Destined and Anointed) * 4015 damage against armor out of cloak (6750-8437.5 armor for Saboteurs, 20250-25312.5 for Berserkers)
Ascendants (using the P.A.W. Siphon to get rid of the orb), Behemoths, and (for the most part) Observers were left until the end of the wave before being eliminated. The only time I had problems was when I cast Avenger Strike into a group of enemies. Once I came out of stealth, I would see an enemy do a 180 degree turn and mow me down. Even Bioelectric Ward wasn’t enough to save me from a Saboteur’s Ushior, Anointed, Soned, and an Observer’s red laser.
Taking a hint from monk, I sometimes positioned myself between my melee-target and other nearby enemies after coming out of Avenger Strike. The stunned enemy became a living melee shield (LMS) for me. And while it didn’t work as well as a Human Kineticist using Pull, I think it saved me from getting downed once or twice.
Objectives were a piece of cake for stealth characters. I almost got a Wave 6 Upload completed in a previous failed attempt; probably needed about 20 more seconds to go, but the timer ran out on me.
Angara Avenger - Cloak and Dagger Madawot | 8 August 2018 | 57:07 | Sandstorm | Kett | Platinum | P.A.W. Siphon | Boss, Upload, Hack | Xbox
Well, after the previous night’s disappointment with dying after completing a Wave 6 Upload and getting a network connection error while doing a Wave 6 Boss with my Cloak and Dagger Angara Avenger, I have a treat for you. Here is a Platinum Solo that features my Cloak and Dagger Avenger successfully navigating the gauntlet of tough objectives: Boss, Upload, and Hack!
Cloak and Dagger While a Cloak and Dagger build is decidedly sub-optimal compared to a Disrupting Strike Melee or Sticky Grenade Avenger build, I wanted to complete one Platinum solo with it. With Avenger Strike 6B Cloak and Dagger, if you dispatch an enemy using Avenger Strike, you get back one Stealth Grid charge.
One might question my decision to use the P.A.W. After all, if I’m using Avenger Strike as my primary weapon, would it be better served by using a shotgun or pistol with the heavy melee mod, along with a Strength Enhancer IV and Hydraulic Joints? Even with that build, the only thing you can one-hit kill on Platinum are Adhis.
I had to drain an enemy’s shields and whittle health down to a level where Avenger Strike (with Bleeding Damage) would result in a kill. The P.A.W. Siphon, coupled with an Assault Rifle Amp equipment (+20%), Assault Rifle Amp III (+30%), and a Universal Power Amp III (+15%), provided me with the perfect weapon to do just that. The P.A.W. gave me the control necessary to weaken the enemy just enough for Avenger Strike to do its thing and give me back that Stealth Grid charge. Other weapons (i.e. Black Widow, Kishock, Crusader, Rozerad, etc.) are just not as practical for this build.
Furthermore, on Waves 3 and 5, I primarily targeted Observers, which while heavily shielded (3375-3755) compared to Anointed and Destined, have far less health (2025-2278). Whereas I would have to take a Destined or Anointed to less half health in order for Avenger Strike to eliminate them, I would only have to taken an Observer down to 75% health for my build to work.
Thus, by targeting Observers, I could slowly whittle down the Wave Budget. Flash Strike gave me some degree of survivability whenever I used Avenger Strike into a crowd of enemies. I still had to be careful, since enemies outside the 5m radius of the target would attack me almost instantly when coming out of cloak. Because Observers are flying, I frequently dropped to the lower levels of Sandstorm immediately after hitting them with Avenger Strike. This further provided me with safety from the rest of the enemies.
Wave 2 Boss With no Grenade Capacity Gear, I had to rely on Avenger Strike 6B Cloak and Dagger and the occasional run to the the ammo crates on Firebase Sandstorm to replenish my 4 Stealth Grid charges. It’s a shame that Cloak and Dagger kills don’t also replenish Sticky Grenades because having only 2 at a time meant the Wave 2 Boss objective was much more difficult than it would have been for a Disrupting Strike or Sticky Grenade Avenger. I expended 2 of my Ammo Packs and every Cobra RPG in order to take down the Behemoth.
Wave 4 Upload For the Wave 4 and Wave 6 objectives, jump hovering seems to be the key to confusing enemies and allowing a stealth character to safely complete the objectives. I was able to confound the Fiend on Wave 4. It normally can smell the character and lumber right to the circles. By jumping up in the air, it must have thought I was on the roof or second level of the map. I had to use two more of my ammo packs to replenish my Stealth Grid charges during the Hack.
Wave 6 Hack For the Wave 6 Hack, I started at the far end of the map away from the LZ. Once enemies had converged on my position, I cloaked and ran as fast as I could to the circle. I had only one ammo pack left at the start of Wave 6 (used too many for the Wave 2 Boss), meaning I had my 4 Stealth Grid charges + 4 with the ammo pack + 8 more in nearby ammo crates for a total of 16. I was able to complete the Hack in about 2.5 minutes, and I are 6 available Stealth Grid charges in reserve. In cleaning up Wave 6, I was extra careful, since I didn’t want a repeat of the previous night where I died after completing a Wave 6 Upload.
Extraction was a piece of cake for the Avenger, and I Cloak and Dagger’ed a couple of enemies for style points. This was one of the more stressful Platinum solos I’ve attempted, but also one of the most rewarding. Please enjoy!

Would be nice to have the Roekaar as a selectable faction in Mass Effect Andromeda Multiplayer. While they are not too difficult to fight again, given the lack of Berserkers (Hydras are substituted for them), they are a change of pace from the usual Outlaw, Remnant, and Kett factions.

Another unintentional solo. This time on silver. I wouldn't post this, but it was Combotastic apex mission and I was only shooting to Fiends, Ascendants and cloaked Destined.
