Solo ITF on my Crab.

Took me 3hrs 19 Min and 12 sec, with 18 deaths, but i might just be the 1st VEAT on our server to solo the ITF.

Ok, since it was in the middle of my night when i posted this, i didn't feel like writing a story for it.. so, here goes.

1st Mission, no real issues.
1st time i died was cause i couldn't get my heal off in time. 2nd time was on top of the mountain, tried pulling one but the whole mob (and then some) came, used a wakie thinking i was clear but got ganged up on again.
After i got up again it was easy.
(No temps used, no Lore used)

2nd mission, no real issues.
figured i'd be smart and save the ambushes for last. I'd take the crystals down to about 500hp, and move to the next one.
Pretty simple tactic, only got in over my head a few times. Also waiting a split second to long with healing can, and it did, kill me a few times.
(No temps used, no Lore used)

3rd mission, squishy mode.
1st few generals were fine, even the general with the Minotaurs and Cyclopses. Even though mobs kept coming, and coming, and coming, and coming. It took me a while to get them all down, really annoying when u almost have the last two EB's down and a patrol with a few healers decides to help out.
The next general however was a PITA, well, not him, just the amount, and type of EB's got the best of me.. several times.
Up to the puter: Used lore for the 1st time at 2nd stage. I got killed just before 10% mark. Got back in, and was a swift ending to the cpu.
Used Raptor pack to fly up, pick out Requiem. Fight at ground level. Fight was pretty simple, he couldn't really damage me, however i did need to use the temp power 'Recovery Serum' to keep my end up from the continues attacks.
Up came Romulus, and my god, he is a PITA.
His main attacks could kill me in 3 blows, and he did..several times. Worst yet, he is a freaking runner. 1st dropped 'Back Up Radio', Romi started running, never seem my back up again >.<. Lore came back up, so i dropped it, same as my 1st 'Shivan Shard', decided to just start running circles around him, and that tactic worked better. I'm glad for some reason he stayed focused on me, and not my Shivan, since i couldn't really do much melee damage like i did with Requiem, my Shivan was picking up my slack.
(Temp powers: Recovery Serum, Back Up Radio, Shivan Shard. Lore used 2x)

4th Mission, mixed feeling.
Started off bad, real bad. Got killed twice before i even hit the bridge.
This actually ticked me off so bad that it made me focus more. From there it was smooth sailing.
Always nice to see my Ion Judgement used on the platform.. was thinking about a pic, but was too late, next time.
Nictus Romi: Saw he was doing the same thing as previous mission.. run.
Dropping my Shivan was, uhm.. yeah, at least my temp pets kept the nictus busy >.<. Again using my own running tactic to keep Romi in place, while Shivan, and now my HVAS are keeping nictus busy, i had to try and keep his regen low. I was prepared tho... Nukes, Hand grenades, Molotov Cocktails, gabriel's Hammer and Envenomed Dagger helped me kill him.
Once he died, my pets got mezzed, and instead of attacking nictus, the attacked Romi, chasing him up the south hill where he died for the 2nd time. Then it happend....
He didn't rez! Both nictus' went back to Romi's spawn point, and i didn't know what to do. Looking around, i didn't see Romi, and the Nictus was now AV type. I attacked the Nictus, hoping it's death would bring back Romi, no luck. 2nd time i killed it, the 'Beat Romi' disappeared from my nav bar. Killed the remaining 25 tritors and TF complete.
(Temps used: HVAS, Shivan Shard x2, Envenomed Dagger, Gabriel's Hammer, Molotov Cocktail, Hand Grenades, Nuclear Missile, Enchantment of Serafina, Biological Missile. Lore 1)

Overall, not bad. I could speed things up, but at the risk of placing my self at risk.
18 deaths: A few might also come from two people farming the wall while i was on the 1st 3 missions.
Nictus Romi: Kinda left me with a bad taste. It wasn't Romi, it was Nictus, and Nictus doesn't really attack.

Conclusion...
I will do this again, and improve my time, and my death count.

Congratulations!!

{Insert Obligatory "PL Meh" Statement Here}

Man, two more hours and I could have been there when you did it too . . .

Congratulations DE. And yes, when Rommie dies out of LOS of the Nictus, he does not revive and you can simply kill them. One alternate method is to kill the Nicti (Nictuses?) one at a time, then drop Rommie.

hehehe you can see the tells between us, I'm glad I wasnt saying anything bad haha

Congrats to you.

Wow! Very impressive Neph - gratz! What diff were you on? 0x8?

Good job.

wow, Gratz!

Congrats on the solo!

I just have one question... according to the Ouroportal page... you spent 26 Billion on one build? I don't see how that is even possible unless all he has in him are PvP IOs.

color me impressed.
