It's great to see a nice in-depth guide for all 3 characters, and it's so refreshing for a RUclipsr to show there funny fails and deaths in a run and talk about them and explain what they did wrong. Kudos for that, bud.
This may sound cliche, but you learn so much from mistakes. So of course I would put it in a how to video so that people can hopefully learn from me and avoid those same mistakes haha
For anyone running this: the final boss currently has a game breaking bug where you are not able to dunk the symbols in their location after you get deepsite. This results in a wipe as you cannot get rid of the vestige. Had this happen to me 2 phases away from killing her. I’m done until they fix it.
I ran through it last night with some of my clanmates. There was a bug during the final boss fight where I couldn't see the symbol in the room near the right hand. Even when I got the Vestige, I couldn't see where the others had dunked theirs and I couldn't dunk my Vestige at any of the parts. I ended up dying because I couldn't dunk it. We didn't wipe and just kept going. It remained bugged for the rest of the fight, but another teammate came over and did mine while I killed adds in the main room. Granted, we only had two damage phases left, it was pretty confusing when it happened.
That's not correct. The bug simply makes the symbols disappear. You can still bank the vestige once grabbing deepsite, you just need to have remembered where you need to put it.
For those using legend of acrius(which I highly recommend as it allowed me to easily 4 phase ecthar with felwinters helm hot swap on warlock) it is crucial to know that you never need to stop to reload. The fire rate is the exact same even if you're reloading between every shot just spam shoot and reload for this effect with a melee mixed in every 3 shots. You run through all your ammo during your well duration. I also took the time to take a swim in the water after every dps phase to swap around my build back to sunbracers since it's totally safe down there while the boss is in the main room.
Thanks man, this is just what I needed. Last season I solo'd my first duneon ever, was a pain but I accomplished it. A couple days ago I saw a clip of Salts solo run with titan and damage ing the first boss with bonk hammer. Decided just to jump in for fun. I did 5 phases on the first boss, only 3 of which I actually did any damage at all, and got a little over 10 mill damage, half health, then died. tried half a dozen more times and didn't even get cloose and bailed. With this though I think I can do it with a little patients. It's doable at least for me I think, thank man, you earned a sub today.
You should try Briar's Contempt (ideally with Surrounded for 40% extra damage) for the final boss, the origin trait gives 33% bonus damage against lucent hive (which the final boss is) when paired with another weapon of the same origin trait! Throw on Acasia's Dejection with Incandescent for ad clear (also makes the moths super easy) and you should be good to go, works especially well on solar titan. Briar's has more ammo, is more forgiving due to being a 3 burst, and should out-damage Sleeper. This also frees up your exotic slot to use for Arbalest to pop the boss's shield, and you can swap to either Conditional Finality or another RoN weapon to get another 10% damage from the origin trait!
I had 3 final boss pulls earlier today, all 3 wiped due to the moths. Honstly, anyone attempting this, KEEP WATCHING HER.. there are only 2 circumstances for her to spawn the moths. 1. Like explained in the video, after watching through the rings 2. If you are too slow during the rune part then she might or might not spawn some moths, so if you feel like you're going slow: Check on her. Good luck. Thank god it's done.
Great guide. Just FYI for the second encounter, if folks don't have that random sword the seasonal craftable sword The Caretaker they can get Enhanced Surrounded with either ammo regen of your choice. It's one of the rare craft weapons I made two of, one for the sort of vanilla damage and one as a block heavy Stonghold utility piece. PS: I've also had some Loadout quirkiness happening over the last week or so, not equipping transmog, and not changing mods if I'm using the same piece of armor in the currently equipped and the Loadout I'm swapping to. Was really annoying during Kalli clan runs, as I had a few times where I had my 10th loadout saved as a kind of temporary spot, and throughout the week had to keep manually redoing it when me and the boys were squeezing in runs.
I definitely recommend a trace rifle over an smg for final boss. Running a double special setup making heavy rain everywhere is useful, but the icing on the cake is the rpm trace rifles have for reliable moth swatting. Post-note : Hollow denial has been my main trace purely for lead from gold ammo economy, highly recommend.
Hollow denial is good but I think Path of Least Resistance is the best one, since it can get voltshot, which is great for ad clear / ammo conservation, and you can use it to proc jolt on boss for passive DPS It can also get shoot to loot which autoreloads all weapons and can grab any from anywhere in the arena, great for dps phases
the reason why the transmog doesn't carry over when you swap loadouts is because if you have a different mod (like a reduced cost perk on the artifact), that whole armor piece doesn't update or change at all
Been doing this dungeon throughout this week as im on holiday for a week been trying for like 5-10 times a day to solo flawless it. Ive been close twice as only needed 1 more dmg phase to get the triumph one. So far this is the most detailed video ive come across to see if ive been doing wrong and get good tips to make my life easier. Im gonna try again tomorrow and hopefully i can do it and escape this hellish torture ive been putting myself through.
Man, I’m from Cali, Colombia, and want to thank you for the way you made this video, and if I get my flawless I’m sure this knowledge will be part of the success
I went in today on a bonk Titan and got to first boss without a hinge. My issue was locations of runes and getting axed down below 😂 Thanks to RUclips algorithm, your video was recommended and baddabing, you had a map! Thanks this will alleviate most of my frustration. New subscriber 👍🏻
Glad it helped! Good luck with the run! The more your run the runes, the more you get a path down that works for you. I can run it super quickly now thanks to repetition
Bro your guide is by far the BEST guide I've ever seen for a dungeon like you covered everything, answering every question I had during your explanations thank you seriously this is an amazing guide, I give it a 15 outta ten thank you God bless
Might have to give Sleeper a shot. My first clear I was running Arbalest and Cataclysmic and it was a 10-phase. Most of the phases were sloppy, because I was running Arc Hunter and she kept teleporting out of my Gathering Storm, but it was brutal.
Sleeper is great for consistency, he didn't mention xenophage in the video but provided you have radiant up, it's also very consistent, allowing you to miss headshots and still get enough damage in. It'll be a 5 phase most likely, but it's what I've been using as it feels more comfortable with ads getting in the way
When aligning the TK symbols in the final boss you dont have to shoot them, just look at the right position, this helps a bit in staying aware of mobs and the boss
Got a new sub! Great information here! TY. I actually almost did it with Arc Warlock, then I died cause I reached a submerged area that I wasn't supposed to reach. Joining allies in 4...3...2...1...DEAD 😊😂 I think those platforming sessions shouldn't count for a solo flawless, only the encounters and bosses. It's so frustrating.
I believe the reason as to why it does that is because of the artifact mods, as soon as I got the discounted arc, void, and melee mods it counts them as entirely new mods and makes them “unavailable” since they’re “new and so you have to reapply them and it shouldn’t do that again unless if it only doesn’t change your transmog because personally it wouldn’t change the currently equipped transmog and the mods trying to be equipped
The first time I ran the dungeon I used an ahamkaras spine build. Granted we had a full team, but I was shredding everything. It's an s tier build for Both ad control and dps, 100% reccomend Edit: forgot to mention good survivability too since you heal on every nade kill
Thank you! I will make a fashion video at the end of the year. I used bonk hammer for duality on my first solo flawless as well. Was so good. 3 phased both bosses and never really had to worry about dying
One change id recommend is swapping the smg for a trace rifle. It drastically increases your heavy drops so you’re guaranteed to not worry about ammo and it fires even faster so it’s easier to hit moths. I recommend the one from RON since it also deals bonus damage to lucent hive
“contraverse holds or sunbracers work really well” yes but you can use arc warlock pretty well if you keep moving and have an arc soul. geomags is what i went with for melting lucent hive, plus a fusion rifle, coldheart, and a rocket launcher. speed is underrated imo, worked fantastically. also, it’s important to use your super/heavy weapon too. in the first encounter, don’t be afraid to melt the lucent hive or veilbearer wizards with rockets.
most importantly: Arc gets a lot of free damage resist this season between the artifact mod and the dr fragment. I've actually had an easier time surviving on Arclock than on solar with resto x2 bc sometimes you can get killed through resto (specifically when dps starts on the first boss) whereas on arc you just take a fraction of the damage you would otherwise recieve.
The transmog issue is because of last season's authorized mods. If you look closely the mods on that saved loadout arent there as they were completely different mods than their base versions. And now that authorized mods for last season is gone you need to resave your loadout again for the transmog.
@@itztizzle yeah, in addition to that, all mods you had socketed won't apply either, I'd advise that (provided they don't make a change) just before the end of the season equip your build, reset your artifact, and check to see which of your mods are Grey'd out, and resort your stats and mods then resave the build. You'll have to do that to every build you want to keep, then after you're done, just don't buy any of the authorised mods in the seasonal artifact, seeing as you'll only be a couple of days away from the end of the season. It's a pain, but to stop all of your builds being fumbled in the future it's what you have to do if you end up buying the authorised mods (or just straight up dont buy them, which is what I'm doing from now on). Trying to tell as many people as I can about this as I caught this last season before it ruined all my loadouts, seems you ran into the problem I avoided
I've only done 4 or 5 attempts 2 of my deaths were on decent runs: On my most recent attempt in the first boss it was almost a 3 phase using t cannon bonk titan, making sure roaring flames was up 100%. Super to break shield aswell. Sadly died killing last lucent due to a crazy back-to-back hammer whiff skill issue. Got to final boss, got it to half health in 3 phases using xeno triple solar surge and radiant from hammers. But sadly forgot after doing the ring puzzle, it spawns more moths. Silly mistake on my part. This dungeon is definitely a challenge, and a fair bit going on + alot of room for errors. Best of luck to anyone trying!
for any arc hunter doing the first boss if your willing to do some armor swaping you can use assasins cowl before the damage phase and then put on liars handshake for damage with the tractor cannon and one two punch shotgun it will do a lot more damage plus you wont have to keep killing little enemy's during damage cause the liars handshake heals you or you could use lament for damage as it also heals you and is pretty easy to use just do two charged light attacks into a charged heavy attack then two non charged light attacks repeat the cycle until damage is over you will ne a lucent blades mod on your chest armor to maximize the damage from lament
I haven't had a ton of time to run this- i'll bang out my solo flaw this week on my day off..Not sure how you said you control where you do damage from.i have'nt run it too much- but is it not random when you go in the water what symbol will appear ? Thus it could put you DPS'ing from random locations? Also i've dropped dead randomly a few times- Not sure why. Once i think my timer ran out to dunk Vestige..i need to experiment a bit more make sure i have the mechanics down..
A tip if you wanna optimize your dps on Warlock: You can finish the knight that initiates dps with Felwinters Helm for a free 30% debuff that lasts 20 secs.
Transmog won't swap if the mod setup can't swap. I noticed this before I updated a couple gloves from last season's mods. I had the old 1 cost grenade mods in the loadout.
I think the health is fine for a 3 man but it definitely needs to scale down some for solo. That or maybe making the damage phase a little longer in the last encounter cuz she moves a lot.
Banged my head against this dungeon for two days solo, using a void titan build (volatile and devour with no back up plan) . Lorely for more on demand/emergency heals. I shall return to my original form now though… Syntho Bonk. With tractor because I gotta debut Ecthar somehow. Honestly, i feel like he is the harder of the two bosses. The Necromancer is mainly like you said; a war of attrition. These shields are WAY TOO BEEFY though…
I wish you talked about fouble special some considering its pretty much the best for solo content. Especially with this ad density ill have 10-15 bricks laying around at the end of encounters.
The RoN fusion with surrounded is a bit better than cataclysmic at the moment its origin trait makes it do more to lucent hive. Surrounded is also a bigger buff than bait and switch and youre always surrounded in this dungeon.
Actually I have a void necrotic warlock with non stop vortex grenades . Always healing , amazing ad clear . Also I used tractor cannon to suppress the boss and give my team a damage bump. It's not the typical fragment setup .
@@jacobbruch7854 could be a long message , but I'll do my best . Usual mods on armor . Ashes to assets, grenade kickstart fire power . Resist mods on chest , stacks on stacks legs and innervation . Reaper and I can't remember theod for gathering orbs . But it's honestly the combination of devour , kickstart and the fragments that does it . Feed the void , child of the old gods for aspects . Echo of instability , echo of undermining , echo of expulsion and the one that really makes it all happen is ( echo of exchange ) . With the necrotics and devour and a glaive forgot that you have grenades in seconds while slaying out
Bungie hates their players to put us thru this dungeon solo and bosses with so much health. I died way too much on arc hunter i will try solar titan but I'm about to give up ive spent a whole day on the dungeon along with gettjng kicked for inactivity because i kept dying so much.
My problem is that the first boss keeps one shotting me with the shield throw and i have no idea what to do about it. He's killed me through any amount of restoration with it, he's killed me through a well, he's oneshot my bubble and then killed me on the goddamn bounce with that shield throw. I even tried limiting my frames to 30 and i still get one shot by the shield throw and i have no idea what to do about it
Any advice as to how to stop moths from just 1 shotting you? I streamed my 2nd to last attempt and punched an acolyte at full hp in 1st encounter and just got NUKED by a single moth, idk wether its just something to do with syntho’s lunge hitting the moth? Idk but i feel like moths are just hitting me way too hard (i had 100 resil, arc resist | i think concussive | and maybe even a second arc resist)
Yeah way it goes sometimes. Happened to me too. My advice is when killing any enemy shielded by a moth, try and kill the moth when it flies out. They are a huge pain in the ass
I honestly don't think this is very difficult (with the right build re: healing/survivability). The bosses just have a lot of health so it comes down to staying focused and doing the mechanics over and over. I have solo'd them, all quite a few times minus spire. I think Duality is the toughest solo. It has the most unforgiving mechanics of the bunch and the psions in boss room during damage are quite deadly. This one is probably the longest to solo though. But when you have a good rhythm not bad at all
Kill everything before dunking the final vestige. Then thrall will spawn in when you do that. On titan they just die to my sunspot. On other characters you have to kill them
I’m still trying to figure out how to many burning maul work on the first boss; I tested yesterday and did 2.2m on a full damage phase on bonk Titan with tractor and jolt, but I swapped to hammer of sol and did 2.6m. Obv just one test but do I spam the melee attack or the cyclone slam?
Yeah what virus said. I truly don't know which does more damage. But they cyclone did well for me so I went with it. 3 phased doing the cyclone and then bonking it, so it is obviously decent. I found throwing hammers does less personally
great vid helps a lot thanks. but on your warlock build you say you get restoration x2 iv copied your build to the letter and cannot proc restoration at all only radiant im confused lol
Activate heat rises first. Then do a Phoenix dive (resto x2) and get a solar kill to extend the duration of resto with ember of empyrean (2 second window to get that kill). Then you’re good to go
@@itztizzle alternatively, you can do Actium War Rig + Xeno, although it's gonna take a little bit more time to pop the shield because your super is no longer buffed by Synthoceps. Not the highest dps set up but I find it comfy.
I'm honestly gonna wait till they tune the bosses and make them more dungeon-friendly. At least I won't have to worry about getting paragon this season anyway since it's a waste of time
This was the toughest thing i did in this game and i used Rockets on Ectar... I couldnt stay alove being close to him and didnt blow myself up at all. Dont dismiss the strat
Thank you! I will make a fashion show video at the end of the year. Sorry to make you wait so long. But my transmog is a bit messed up right now so I gotta fix it all. It is a combo of a ton different ornaments. So stay tuned for the fashion video haha. Glad you like it! Titan specifically on solar, I use that new black shader erbos glance I believe it is called
Liar's is great too. Assassin's cowl is better for survivability IMO and if you are going for flawless, I think it is the safer play. But if you are comfortable with liar's, go with that
@@itztizzle Maybe I’m misunderstanding something but at 9:52 you flatly state that kinetic weapons do 15% more damage with no mention of strand or stasis. So it’s hard to decipher if you mean 15% more damage than previously, or more than energy weapons, etc. No worries. Ty for the video. It’s very helpful.
Dude I knew you could 3 phase with bonk hammer before. I was just trying bonk hammer and I did everything right and I was confused why it felt like I did so little damage compared to the first time I tried. I think they either gave ecthar more damage resist or the gave him more health in recent updates. I’m really upset about this because I had a hard enough time with the final boss and now you have an endurance test on both of the last two encounters if you want to solo the dungeon. This is ridiculous. I don’t want to sit in the same spot repeating everything for 2 and half hours just to solo this stupid dungeon.
did mine with karnstein armlets + a demo/adrenaline nezareks whisper to be full health 1 shot all ads and able to run chilltide in primary slot + xeno = ez gg , dont have to balance resto x2 timings
Great guide! I forgot to pay attention to the symbol on one of the hive lightbearers on final on my flawless and well you can guess how that went but yeah. On arc hunter I did use arbalest and cataclysmic for damage and just had a trace rifle for the moths and the double special just constabtly gave me heavy
Oh I also tried using the god roll apex predator with arbalest on echtar but it was soneehat slow for damage and took me 8 phases. Overall witg rockets you just jump away and damage from afar and worked fine and felt super safe but it's slower than 1 2 punch
Food for thought. Run risk runner during the final boss and use load outs to swap to your dps loadout before killing the final lucent hive. Grab some ammo.
Def a good way to play extra safe as long as you are conscious about where your ammo is. Riskrunner and an ammo finder also help to make heavy bricks easily
@@itztizzle additionally, once the lucent hive spawn, that’s when I switch to double special and leviathan. More heavy and you spend a lot less time exposed to the boss.
second encounter as hunter is a nightmare ive been practicing for days and the 1-2-punch method feels like absolute RNG depending on if there are small enemies close to quickly get health from with cowl or not you may die or do no damage you spend over half the damage phase on like 10% health just waiting to be killed and his shield alone has like 400k health so it eats most of your super damage
Very true. Liar's handshake heals you on a melee attack. Maybe try swapping to that for damage phase. I just tried to avoid loadouts where you had to make swaps mid fight. But it is a very handy skill to utilize in this dungeon
hmm thats a neat idea my last test was actually using witherhoard and rocket for damage, missed some damage without tractor, but felt much safer, but liars is another good idea ill try, so far im just doing one phase to see how the damage is to figure out my approach :)
You dont need assassins cowl for the first boss. Use the amplified damage resist mod from the artifact and liars handshake, you'll never drop below half hp if you keep meleeing ads
Dude this guide is phenomenal. Thank you. Its not often someone goes through an in depth guide for all 3 classes. Super helpful.
Thank you! It was a lot of work but people seem to have really enjoyed it and found it helpful and that was my goal!

I'm genuinely impressed. Found this tough as a 3 man just to complete.
On master, I assume? Yeah, master is a bit tougher than we expected.
It's always that way the first time or two and then when you get used to it it becomes cake.
He forgot about one main tip: Buy a PC tha has best modiffications ever😂

That's not correct. The bug simply makes the symbols disappear. You can still bank the vestige once grabbing deepsite, you just need to have remembered where you need to put it.
@@owendrungle There are multiple videos of people having the bug happen to them, it definitely exists alongside the issue you are detailing.
@@owendrungle Just happened with me where we were unable to dunk in a fireteam and we had to wipe. So you are wrong.
This shits mad dumb the vestige glitch happened to me like bro what
Thank you for taking the time to make this video. I learned a lot and I think it's going to help me get my solo flawless.
That's the goal! Hope it helps! Good luck and let me know if you beat it!
For those using legend of acrius(which I highly recommend as it allowed me to easily 4 phase ecthar with felwinters helm hot swap on warlock) it is crucial to know that you never need to stop to reload.

Last season I solo'd my first duneon ever, was a pain but I accomplished it. A couple days ago I saw a clip of Salts solo run with titan and damage ing the first boss with bonk hammer. Decided just to jump in for fun.
I did 5 phases on the first boss, only 3 of which I actually did any damage at all, and got a little over 10 mill damage, half health, then died. tried half a dozen more times and didn't even get cloose and bailed.
With this though I think I can do it with a little patients. It's doable at least for me I think, thank man, you earned a sub today.

You need both conditional and briars plus aishas to get the 33 percent. Having less than 3 weapons with the origin trait is not worth it.
I had 3 final boss pulls earlier today, all 3 wiped due to the moths. Honstly, anyone attempting this, KEEP WATCHING HER.. there are only 2 circumstances for her to spawn the moths.
1. Like explained in the video, after watching through the rings
2. If you are too slow during the rune part then she might or might not spawn some moths, so if you feel like you're going slow: Check on her.
Good luck. Thank god it's done.
Bonus tip: use a trace rifle for the moths it’s makes life so much easier.
Also, sometimes it is so good to run Riskrunner for damage resist, I run it in the last encounter, and that little guy helped me a bunch
Great guide. Just FYI for the second encounter, if folks don't have that random sword the seasonal craftable sword The Caretaker they can get Enhanced Surrounded with either ammo regen of your choice.

I like this but use a solar trace on warlock
Hollow denial is good but I think Path of Least Resistance is the best one, since it can get voltshot, which is great for ad clear / ammo conservation, and you can use it to proc jolt on boss for passive DPS
It can also get shoot to loot which autoreloads all weapons and can grab any from anywhere in the arena, great for dps phases
Path of least resistance with voltshot + shoot to loot is goated too
Every other class: “yeah use this gun paired with this exotic to to massive dps”
Titans: “bonk”
the reason why the transmog doesn't carry over when you swap loadouts is because if you have a different mod (like a reduced cost perk on the artifact), that whole armor piece doesn't update or change at all

A neat tip use risk runner on the final boss it works. I would pair it with throwing hammer super to pop the shield then use a linear for dps.
I would like to amend this did my solo flawless and if you use risk runner in between it's great, but use arbalest for damage phase.
Man, I’m from Cali, Colombia, and want to thank you for the way you made this video, and if I get my flawless I’m sure this knowledge will be part of the success

i feel a little more confident in attempting this. i did duality solo and bonk hammer was SO much fun in that dungeon. btw your titan drip is fire
Thank you! I will make a fashion video at the end of the year. I used bonk hammer for duality on my first solo flawless as well. Was so good. 3 phased both bosses and never really had to worry about dying
@@itztizzle backpacks and boops disagree
Unless you did yours after the change to physics based damage
One change id recommend is swapping the smg for a trace rifle. It drastically increases your heavy drops so you’re guaranteed to not worry about ammo and it fires even faster so it’s easier to hit moths. I recommend the one from RON since it also deals bonus damage to lucent hive
“contraverse holds or sunbracers work really well” yes but you can use arc warlock pretty well if you keep moving and have an arc soul. geomags is what i went with for melting lucent hive, plus a fusion rifle, coldheart, and a rocket launcher. speed is underrated imo, worked fantastically. also, it’s important to use your super/heavy weapon too. in the first encounter, don’t be afraid to melt the lucent hive or veilbearer wizards with rockets.
most importantly: Arc gets a lot of free damage resist this season between the artifact mod and the dr fragment. I've actually had an easier time surviving on Arclock than on solar with resto x2 bc sometimes you can get killed through resto (specifically when dps starts on the first boss) whereas on arc you just take a fraction of the damage you would otherwise recieve.
The transmog issue is because of last season's authorized mods. If you look closely the mods on that saved loadout arent there as they were completely different mods than their base versions. And now that authorized mods for last season is gone you need to resave your loadout again for the transmog.
Thank you so much for this comment! I will go and fix that stuff! Appreciate it!
@@itztizzle np! hope your fashion is fixed now!
@@itztizzle yeah, in addition to that, all mods you had socketed won't apply either, I'd advise that (provided they don't make a change) just before the end of the season equip your build, reset your artifact, and check to see which of your mods are Grey'd out, and resort your stats and mods then resave the build. You'll have to do that to every build you want to keep, then after you're done, just don't buy any of the authorised mods in the seasonal artifact, seeing as you'll only be a couple of days away from the end of the season. It's a pain, but to stop all of your builds being fumbled in the future it's what you have to do if you end up buying the authorised mods (or just straight up dont buy them, which is what I'm doing from now on). Trying to tell as many people as I can about this as I caught this last season before it ruined all my loadouts, seems you ran into the problem I avoided
@@sydious_s_snake I will def be doing that in the future!
very clear and thorough explanations, thank you!
7:15 the dam zavala smile in the background made me spil my water
I've only done 4 or 5 attempts 2 of my deaths were on decent runs:
On my most recent attempt in the first boss it was almost a 3 phase using t cannon bonk titan, making sure roaring flames was up 100%. Super to break shield aswell. Sadly died killing last lucent due to a crazy back-to-back hammer whiff skill issue.
Got to final boss, got it to half health in 3 phases using xeno triple solar surge and radiant from hammers. But sadly forgot after doing the ring puzzle, it spawns more moths. Silly mistake on my part.
This dungeon is definitely a challenge, and a fair bit going on + alot of room for errors. Best of luck to anyone trying!
Kudos to anybody with the patience and calm to solo. I can't get there with how easy it is to die to some shit.
Fantasic guide Thanks for your hard work!
Thank you!
gonna lv up my titan do do this but your video gave me confidence to do solo flawless
for any arc hunter doing the first boss if your willing to do some armor swaping you can use assasins cowl before the damage phase and then put on liars handshake for damage with the tractor cannon and one two punch shotgun it will do a lot more damage plus you wont have to keep killing little enemy's during damage cause the liars handshake heals you or you could use lament for damage as it also heals you and is pretty easy to use just do two charged light attacks into a charged heavy attack then two non charged light attacks repeat the cycle until damage is over you will ne a lucent blades mod on your chest armor to maximize the damage from lament
Amazing guide. Well done!
Thank you for all your hard work.
I haven't had a ton of time to run this- i'll bang out my solo flaw this week on my day off..Not sure how you said you control where you do damage from.i have'nt run it too much- but is it not random when you go in the water what symbol will appear ? Thus it could put you DPS'ing from random locations? Also i've dropped dead randomly a few times- Not sure why. Once i think my timer ran out to dunk Vestige..i need to experiment a bit more make sure i have the mechanics down..
A tip if you wanna optimize your dps on Warlock: You can finish the knight that initiates dps with Felwinters Helm for a free 30% debuff that lasts 20 secs.
Transmog won't swap if the mod setup can't swap. I noticed this before I updated a couple gloves from last season's mods. I had the old 1 cost grenade mods in the loadout.
Congrats on the video poppin off!
Thanks dude! Feels good!
I think the health is fine for a 3 man but it definitely needs to scale down some for solo. That or maybe making the damage phase a little longer in the last encounter cuz she moves a lot.
I always play dungeons duo with my father. My strat on ecthar is 1 tractor and 1 telesto. Do you think its good idea?
Shinobows vow is so good for second encounter, don’t sleep on those gauntlets
I got to the final boss with bonk but didn’t have time to complete it , was thinking of using sleeper , yout vid conferred it
I'm not sure but in the first boss isnt it better to use the heavy attack of burning maul because it does more dmg?
Enjoyed this. Thanks. Thus old lady wants to get her solo on!
Good Luck!
Banged my head against this dungeon for two days solo, using a void titan build (volatile and devour with no back up plan) . Lorely for more on demand/emergency heals. I shall return to my original form now though… Syntho Bonk. With tractor because I gotta debut Ecthar somehow. Honestly, i feel like he is the harder of the two bosses. The Necromancer is mainly like you said; a war of attrition. These shields are WAY TOO BEEFY though…
Is stronghold still bugged to where you can be essentially unkillable or did they patch it already?
Briars Contempt with seasonal mod for harmonic resonance and surrounded plus arbalest it was so easy for me
I already solo flawless this dungeon but I love to see how others did it.
I wish you talked about fouble special some considering its pretty much the best for solo content. Especially with this ad density ill have 10-15 bricks laying around at the end of encounters.
Great video.
Thanks for the tips.
The RoN fusion with surrounded is a bit better than cataclysmic at the moment its origin trait makes it do more to lucent hive. Surrounded is also a bigger buff than bait and switch and youre always surrounded in this dungeon.
If youre already using Arc like the Arc Hunter suggested here the speed boost you get from Arc applies in the water too.
Actually I have a void necrotic warlock with non stop vortex grenades . Always healing , amazing ad clear . Also I used tractor cannon to suppress the boss and give my team a damage bump. It's not the typical fragment setup .
I would be interested to see that? How is that setup, mods to recharge melee with grenade damage and aspect to do the same?
@@jacobbruch7854 could be a long message , but I'll do my best . Usual mods on armor . Ashes to assets, grenade kickstart fire power . Resist mods on chest , stacks on stacks legs and innervation . Reaper and I can't remember theod for gathering orbs . But it's honestly the combination of devour , kickstart and the fragments that does it . Feed the void , child of the old gods for aspects . Echo of instability , echo of undermining , echo of expulsion and the one that really makes it all happen is ( echo of exchange ) . With the necrotics and devour and a glaive forgot that you have grenades in seconds while slaying out
Thank you! I'll try it out when I get home
@@jacobbruch7854 no problem any questions just ask .
Bungie hates their players to put us thru this dungeon solo and bosses with so much health. I died way too much on arc hunter i will try solar titan but I'm about to give up ive spent a whole day on the dungeon along with gettjng kicked for inactivity because i kept dying so much.
My problem is that the first boss keeps one shotting me with the shield throw and i have no idea what to do about it. He's killed me through any amount of restoration with it, he's killed me through a well, he's oneshot my bubble and then killed me on the goddamn bounce with that shield throw. I even tried limiting my frames to 30 and i still get one shot by the shield throw and i have no idea what to do about it
Jump up after you kill the knight. Usually can jump over the shield
Great explanation, thanks
im on a warlock, for final boss would a sniper and sleeper work? I dont have the best roll on my cataclysmic
Yes should work well
IV seen the same thing with my hands not sure how to fix it but resaving it does not work
How the hell do you get restoration on warlock without the healing grenade?!
If you wanna get through the opening enc ez just slap on Zeno and a heritage for blitzing the symbols(on warlock atleast)
Any advice as to how to stop moths from just 1 shotting you? I streamed my 2nd to last attempt and punched an acolyte at full hp in 1st encounter and just got NUKED by a single moth, idk wether its just something to do with syntho’s lunge hitting the moth? Idk but i feel like moths are just hitting me way too hard (i had 100 resil, arc resist | i think concussive | and maybe even a second arc resist)
Yeah way it goes sometimes. Happened to me too. My advice is when killing any enemy shielded by a moth, try and kill the moth when it flies out. They are a huge pain in the ass
could u link these loadouts in the description? thanks
That picture on the right for the rune room was creepy as hell lmao
gg! How did the difficulty level of solo flowless compare to other labyrinths?
I honestly don't think this is very difficult (with the right build re: healing/survivability). The bosses just have a lot of health so it comes down to staying focused and doing the mechanics over and over. I have solo'd them, all quite a few times minus spire. I think Duality is the toughest solo. It has the most unforgiving mechanics of the bunch and the psions in boss room during damage are quite deadly. This one is probably the longest to solo though. But when you have a good rhythm not bad at all
How do you not have adds shooting and spawning in final boss?
Kill everything before dunking the final vestige. Then thrall will spawn in when you do that. On titan they just die to my sunspot. On other characters you have to kill them
As a hunter For first boss my weapon of choice is lament, and the final boss I’m just using a cataclysmic with arbi.
Transmogs aren't saving correctly in loadouts. Mine don't swap my styles or shaders if it's a shared piece on another build
Yeah very frustrating haha
The transmog glitch just reapply and overwrite it. It keeps happening to me and never once fixed itself
I’m still trying to figure out how to many burning maul work on the first boss; I tested yesterday and did 2.2m on a full damage phase on bonk Titan with tractor and jolt, but I swapped to hammer of sol and did 2.6m. Obv just one test but do I spam the melee attack or the cyclone slam?
Cyclone and when it's almost out the slam then into bonk
Yeah what virus said. I truly don't know which does more damage. But they cyclone did well for me so I went with it. 3 phased doing the cyclone and then bonking it, so it is obviously decent. I found throwing hammers does less personally
great vid helps a lot thanks. but on your warlock build you say you get restoration x2 iv copied your build to the letter and cannot proc restoration at all only radiant im confused lol
Activate heat rises first. Then do a Phoenix dive (resto x2) and get a solar kill to extend the duration of resto with ember of empyrean (2 second window to get that kill). Then you’re good to go
@@itztizzle ty il give it a go l8rz :) tried it worked ty again for my new go to build
All these guides throw the word easy around way to… easy
Lmao wtf that Zavala face freaked me out
Great detailed vid
Im just wondering for the final boss xeno or sleeper better? Im running on solar titan
I like sleeper. Hate the long reload on xeno. Use a solar loader for sure
@@itztizzle alternatively, you can do Actium War Rig + Xeno, although it's gonna take a little bit more time to pop the shield because your super is no longer buffed by Synthoceps. Not the highest dps set up but I find it comfy.
I'm honestly gonna wait till they tune the bosses and make them more dungeon-friendly. At least I won't have to worry about getting paragon this season anyway since it's a waste of time
I have experienced the transmog bug, you basically have to redo the entire loadout slot and save it again
Damn haha thank you
no problemo fam, hope you can get it fixed
Thanks man. I got solo flawless first try.
Way to go!
This was the toughest thing i did in this game and i used Rockets on Ectar... I couldnt stay alove being close to him and didnt blow myself up at all. Dont dismiss the strat
First boss is literally the only annoying part of flawless
Echtar is ridiculous. The endless mobs kill me instantly.
Solar Titan got me through the last 2 solo flawless. I guess he’s gonna be my first for this one too.
Since solar 3.0, it’s pretty much the best PVE class/subclass in the game
Solar titan is basically a cheat code for solo flawless dungeons
Bro what's that drip on your titan? Looks amazing
Thank you! I will make a fashion show video at the end of the year. Sorry to make you wait so long. But my transmog is a bit messed up right now so I gotta fix it all. It is a combo of a ton different ornaments. So stay tuned for the fashion video haha. Glad you like it! Titan specifically on solar, I use that new black shader erbos glance I believe it is called
You can put symbols in text chat on console also same thing
Oh nice. I haven’t played console since it came out haha. Feel like it would be slow to do mid fight but I dunno how it works lol
Why not liars handshake instead of assassins cowl?
Liar's is great too. Assassin's cowl is better for survivability IMO and if you are going for flawless, I think it is the safer play. But if you are comfortable with liar's, go with that
Unless I’ve missed a recent update Kinetic primaries do extra damage. Not special weapons.
Kinetic specials deal 15% more than stasis or strand specials
@@itztizzle Maybe I’m misunderstanding something but at 9:52 you flatly state that kinetic weapons do 15% more damage with no mention of strand or stasis. So it’s hard to decipher if you mean 15% more damage than previously, or more than energy weapons, etc. No worries. Ty for the video. It’s very helpful.
great video!
Dude I knew you could 3 phase with bonk hammer before. I was just trying bonk hammer and I did everything right and I was confused why it felt like I did so little damage compared to the first time I tried. I think they either gave ecthar more damage resist or the gave him more health in recent updates. I’m really upset about this because I had a hard enough time with the final boss and now you have an endurance test on both of the last two encounters if you want to solo the dungeon. This is ridiculous. I don’t want to sit in the same spot repeating everything for 2 and half hours just to solo this stupid dungeon.
Am surprised this made to my recommendation lol even tho am a warframe player😂
did mine with karnstein armlets + a demo/adrenaline nezareks whisper to be full health 1 shot all ads and able to run chilltide in primary slot + xeno = ez gg , dont have to balance resto x2 timings
Forgot to mention Karnsteins but it was definitely on my radar. Good call
do I need to go solo flawless to get the title?
Nope, just a regular solo
Great guide! I forgot to pay attention to the symbol on one of the hive lightbearers on final on my flawless and well you can guess how that went but yeah.
On arc hunter I did use arbalest and cataclysmic for damage and just had a trace rifle for the moths and the double special just constabtly gave me heavy
Oh I also tried using the god roll apex predator with arbalest on echtar but it was soneehat slow for damage and took me 8 phases. Overall witg rockets you just jump away and damage from afar and worked fine and felt super safe but it's slower than 1 2 punch
Food for thought. Run risk runner during the final boss and use load outs to swap to your dps loadout before killing the final lucent hive. Grab some ammo.
Def a good way to play extra safe as long as you are conscious about where your ammo is. Riskrunner and an ammo finder also help to make heavy bricks easily
@@itztizzle additionally, once the lucent hive spawn, that’s when I switch to double special and leviathan. More heavy and you spend a lot less time exposed to the boss.
second encounter as hunter is a nightmare ive been practicing for days and the 1-2-punch method feels like absolute RNG
depending on if there are small enemies close to quickly get health from with cowl or not you may die or do no damage
you spend over half the damage phase on like 10% health just waiting to be killed and his shield alone has like 400k health so it eats most of your super damage
Very true. Liar's handshake heals you on a melee attack. Maybe try swapping to that for damage phase. I just tried to avoid loadouts where you had to make swaps mid fight. But it is a very handy skill to utilize in this dungeon
hmm thats a neat idea
my last test was actually using witherhoard and rocket for damage, missed some damage without tractor, but felt much safer, but liars is another good idea ill try, so far im just doing one phase to see how the damage is to figure out my approach :)
You dont need assassins cowl for the first boss. Use the amplified damage resist mod from the artifact and liars handshake, you'll never drop below half hp if you keep meleeing ads
