LR learned, from so many people using that trick in his service, to not allow himself to be taken that way. He can't be slept until yellow (orange?) tower is down.

I too want to give props to the OP, great achievement!

The tower only gives him hold/imob/stun protection

Not to say that he can be slept like anything else as I've never taken a power analyzer or anything, but if has sleep protection, he isn't getting it from the tower.(That tower buff is linked in game with [Dispersion Bubble Real]

It's the green tower that wakes him up every few seconds with that heal, I think. Another problem with the sleeping strategy is until whatever tower gives him high defense goes down, you have a low chance to hit him.

Yeah, I've been trying to develop a strategy that involves something other than a Mind Dom. Even with the towers down, you can't permahold or permaconfuse Recluse and while they are up, you won't be able to sleep him.

I hate to ask a question that might be a bit off topic but i recently tried to do a solo an ITF on my Mind/fire dom, i figured it might be good "practice" before I try an LRSF, but when i would kick the last filler the TF would disband and kick me as well. Is that supposed to happen? And if so, how do you get around this in order to solo a TF/SF?

You keep another character in the TF, logged out.

Congrats and I hate you

Really cool stuff.

Xhris funny enough I have a low level mind energy myself. I think you might have a slight advantage with power boost. Wouldn't power boost help increase the confuse or sleep effects ?

I'm wondering exactly how that works.. Time for a new thread.

It would, but I think it would generally be unneeded since confuse and sleep durations are already long, even more so with a level shift.

But thank you for the answer.

A combination of increased damage and controls is what let me complete this. I've soloed a LRSF without a level shift before, but had to use temp powers in order to put out the necessary DPS while keeping Numina permaconfused.
from the purposes of stats that aren't dependent on enemies - like HP, enhancement slotting, buffs, resistance, defense - your stats are lvl 50. any stats that take into account enemy lvl, you are a lvl 51 - so your tohit, base damage, debuffs and status duration/resistance and the enemies tohit, damage, debuffs and status durations/resistance are all modified.

this effectively gives you a higher % to hit, higher damage, stronger debuffs and control duration while theirs are lessened. truly being lvl 51 would increase our HP and reduce SO effectiveness and probably break everything in the game.

Yes, you can cage both LR and his towers. You may, or may not, need a Hami enhanced cage, depending on your AT.

Great job on the solo RSF F. Enforcer! After I saw this, you inspired me to give a try on my mind/psi, and to my surprise I succeeded! Thanks for posting your results on the forums--I probably wouldn't have even tried if you hadn't.

Keep up the great runs!

First, amazing accomplishment.

I've never played the Mind Dom, so I'm not sure if it can work, but what about drafting some of the other AVs to battle him while you take out the towers?

Sadly, all the Patrons have to be defeated before Lord Recluse will spawn. Besides normal minions the only other thing on the map at that point will be towers or the Flier.

Congrats.

While many may suggests that soloing like this is not WAI, the funny thing is that this is completely in-genre.

How many times have Marvel and/or DC used the story "Hero X vs Hero Y The fight you never though would happen" and it turns out that one of the two is Mind controlled/A Duplicate/Robot/Alien/Alternate/Future version.

I can just see the issue title "Minx pops her claws... and takes down the Vindicators???"
With the silhouette of Fiery-Enforcer in the far right of the frame.

Or "No more Ms nice Numina" With a wide eyed crazy look on Numina's face looking at her bloodstained hands and cackling.

Something like this:

It seems to me that any Mind/* dom could solo the LRSF in this manner (using confuse). Do you have to have /fire as a secondary to pull this off to finish off the last AV?

This thread would be so much cooler if it had an actual build in it lol. I've had a mind/fire stuck at lvl 48 for the longest time, and now i'm about to respec and finish her off but have no clue what to do with the new I19 builds etc etc.

/isjealous
/wantsbuild

Good job mayn, very impressive!

You don't need to be /Fire, just you have to be able to put out enough DPS while keeping the AV's perma mez'd. In the last mission, Numina took about a half an hour to take down. For a lower damaging secondary, a masters run might not be possible.

I went with the spiritual alpha boost and could have only one slotted Hasten, but I made it more level friendly. If you're not comfortable with the end usage, cardiac will solve that.
