Pretty cool. 
When I planned to do the STF on a melee character, I was thinking about Hover/Jetpack on a second build, and epic ranged attacks slotted for range, hopefully timing whatever ranged AOEs I'd get just right to kill the repairmen. If you can position yourself far enough it doesn't seem like Recluse can hit you. Another option would be to mix it up - taunting LR for the -range, throwing one attack on the tower, but that'd probably be incredibly tedious as soon as you get below 50%hp on towers.
All of that being complete theorycraft and extrapolation from experience on teams, I never got around to actually try it.
Even if you end up using temps, I think a solo STF would be by far the most impressive thing a melee character has ever done in this game.
What on Earth is the build you're running!? If my SS/FA Brute could do that...
Too many alts to list.

JK, impressive work. Look forward to your success.

I know that tier 3's will give you a huge huge boost in fights like that but if this is the same 300dps build you whacked a pylon with I would love to see it posted some day

SS/FA Brute with tons of inspirations. I don't see why yours can't |

So I got a bit of time...
Red and Blue Tower down... almost there
This is probably the last day I'm trying this... if I don't get it done I'll give it up, but I now know its at least possible 
Nice job, makes me wanna try this with my SS/Fire if I ever have the time.

Gratz dude.
I think i gave up on soloing TFs after the LRSF took some 20 hours on my dom haha

@Caucasiafro
20 hours??? That's it???
Down to the green tower... quick question here before i jump on it. When all the towers are down, could I take a little break to refill without worrying about the repairmen coming in and reviving all of them back up?
Yes, as long as all the repairmen are dead, they don't spawn after the tower is destroyed.

Good news.... Thanks!!!
Not too hot at taking pictures....
but here you go...
LR left
Reeally nice. Cool stuff.
After what seems like 3 weeks of in game hours...... it's done
OK most of those hours are just "idle" hours. Just didn't want that mission to reset...
Tons and tons of inspirations was used and used my in-game email for additional storage
So there you have it... I might get some good sleep tonight
Thanks guys!!!
Amazing stuff Iggy.
Grats.
Idle time included or not...99 hours.
That's some Iron Man stuff right there.
Now do it without inspirations.
Well done.
Why Blasters? Empathy Sucks.
So, you want to be Mental?
What the hell? Let's buff defenders.
Tactics are for those who do not have a big enough hammer. Wisdom is knowing how big your hammer is.
Wow. Just... Wow.
Congrats! That is an amazing feat.
Words to the wise aren't necessary- it's the stupid ones that need them.

Love the pic with the "Impossible ..." bit.
Awesome.
Wow. Nice work!
Thanks!!!
Just noticed "0" Defeats on that.....
Weird... My rough estimate on deaths would be a few more than a whole lot
Maybe it resets after so many?
It doesn't count defeats unless you set a challenge for it.
And nice job!

I used tons and tons of tier 3 inspiration to get here, and at the end it looks like I have to give this one up. Ran out of patience and time last night and eventually had to log.
Any ideas to make this a tiny bit easier? Gonna have to give it another shot when i find a few hours of playing time
This is solo and I have not used any Shivans, HVAS and the likes. I was thinking it could get done with out those, but its looking like I might have to get some.
