My friend, im 200 hours in, ive searched hi and low for videos, watched upteen builds, you, are by far the best! thanks for really really good info, keep it up, please post more stuff
Thanks! That actually really helps motivate me, do you have a specific guide that would help you out? I can add it to my list of videos I planned to make
@DovazX thanks for replying, maybe best way to grow deviated food. Would love to see you solo other content, I used your tactical stuff in your video, I didnt quite solo lea but made a huge huge difference, the spiderweb potion is excellent! Props again my man 💪
Amazing solo effort, wish I found your video earlier. Would love to see your build videos on your weapon/gear, I have 3 star Last Valor and 2 star Boom Boom but my damage is always lowest of my team, I don't know why 😅
my biggest issue with the first boss is how sharply the homing attacks can turn. I Sidestepped one and it did a near 90 degree turn and smacked me still. Not to mention the area of the damage when it hits either you or environment. Personally find that many bosses in this game has some good ideas, but they mostly boil down to lol dodge stomp/homing shit and making that stuff harder to dodge + delay from latency or something, feels clunky to dodge stuff. Open world part of the game is great but for some reason chooses to focus on it's, in my opinion, biggest weakness, bossing. Also durability works fine as is in open world or the simpler bosses where you can dodge shit. But holy hell in a dungeon like this where you're forced to tank some hits it works about as well as brushing teeth with sandpaper. They either need to disable durability damage in instances (preferred if they want us to grind them) or make the deviant repair item repair all your equipped gear for the same crafting price.
I make it to last shield phase solo without anything other than buff food with my shrapnel build. But straight up cannot get past last shield phase. The adds get out of control so fast... Finally got a friend to help and even though the overall fight was much easier and faster... Still couldn't handle all the mobs for last shield phase. I can't wait to test out some of your strats. This is incredibly well thought out. Thanks!
The weaver whim will definitely help with the adds. The dogs are the biggest hitters and they just get trapped in the web allowing you to either run or take them out without worry. All while trying to keep yourself positioned to not get laser beamed by the Disciples. Ideally only keeping one disciple alive at a time as they are locked to only respawning if both are dead. Another tip I discovered when soloing it again on the hard mode server is that you can toss your turrets onto the side of a pillar. They will stick to the wall. This keeps them off the ground so they don't really get killed. They will still get targeted by projectiles but most will hit the pillar instead of the turret.
Great video and well done. Honestly i've tried it several times, got to the last phase but i can't even do the mechanics cause there are way too many mobs, and even if you kill them they respawn, plus the thunders from the boss and all the sh** going on is crazy. Even using all whims, different food setup, tons of tactical items, still the same result, the last phase is now legit unplayable. What is sad for me is that i understand it doesn`t need to be easy, but it is not even fun at all to grind it. It is just an annoying and unfun fight. To put as challenge to do it solo, when it is ment to played in group, for me is truly an awful decision from the devs. At least for me, it ruined a lot what i thought positively about the game. Made me realize that so many combat aspects(using tactical items is so slow and bugged, the fact that melee weapons are absolutely useless in any end game content, many times is buggy and when you use an item it doesn't even work and so on) are not well coded. For the most part this game is great, but combat wise, probably the worst ive played for those kind of content.
Yea, hard content really causes you to see flaws in gameplay. LEA itself is a bit silly since I'm confident unlike all other content there is no scaling for 1 vs 4 players so its just annoying solo. Hopefully they can take our feedback and make improvements on it. On the bright side, the better your gear, mods etc that you get as well as practice, the more you feel it in LEA. My first attempts were god awful. But by the end of the season my better mods and build had me doing way more damage than in the video and it felt good to notice my character progression.
That’s exactly what I felt, I’m on a PvP server and I felt the flaws super quick, accepted them (even if they hurt the base elements of the game) and hoped they will be fixed quickly. Oddly enough, this PvE fight was more annoying than everything I’ve experienced before, the fight is not hard, it’s every little/big issue with the game all stacked together; I’ve encountered unpickable purple orbs, 10times harder raven(those flying mobs, almost unkillable), 3 lightning pillars (insane design , as it’s random), stumps not working, movement lag, inability to jump, cookies breaking immediately or taking too long to activate) On top of durability loss .. some of the bugs happened at the end of the fight.. And the funny part that the dog phase of the boss, is a single magazine for me. This actually describe how the game fails in the most basic ways, while this is the core of everything and yet .. the game is still fun, the potential is great but we are not potentially playing.. 😢
For the first pair of mini-boss, I boost jump to the second floor of the room. No buffs needed, no minions that can reach me, no shockwaves, no homing projectiles. You can hide at the back if you need to regroup and recover or if you need to step away from your computer for a while. The only thing I need to look out for is the black goo they smear on the floor, which is easy to dodge. I lower both of their HPs and only jump down to the element circles when it's time to finish them off.
jesus christ, I came to doctor and elementals, got destroyed. Thinking, yea, its doable, hard but I know I can finish him... little did I knew before this video. 1st stage... Well at least is something to look forward to. Thanks for the video bossman!
As far as I've seen her loot box has the highest CHANCE at 7 stats into sub rolls of the mods that drops. So like a purple blue blue grey sub rolls, or purple blue green green. But the solo challenge is specifically for a season goal. I highly recommend not trying to solo farm her, as if you can get 3 others it becomes infinitely easier and way faster.
First of all I want to say thanks brother. Yeahh that's right Thank you!!! Hahahhaa I fvking pissed I tried that lab for 10 or so tries and can't beat it. Then I did some research and found this video on discord and yeah it's a success. At first I used fast gunner no wonder I've been having a hard time dealing with em then I copied yours which is bounce grind grind grind for bounce and max ups then challenged it again and yeah awesome it worked hayss...
Me & my hive are STRUGGLING with the Mom of Life phase 😹 but I think we can bring in some turrets, use the whims (weaver esp for some crowd control) and maybe even first get our gear upgraded)
@@mahiraskirata LEA is the current hardest content. Make sure to be prepared. Full calibration on gear with a gold calibration and everything else in the video. You can do it with some practice, then it'll feel easy after a few runs!
It's definitely a tough fight. Abuse the weaver whim, turrets and transform cookie as much as you can but practice and getting better mods/gear is the key. You can do it!
Tried to run this today solo and the number of enemies is not even close to this. I'm getting about 10 times more enemies. Endless adds, homing projectiles that come out of nowhere, and the vampire guys are lasering ALL the time and flank me on each side of cover. I drop things fairly quickly, but they are just too many spanws. What I am seeing on the video is not even close to what I am seeing in game. Either the smoke grenades were bugging the hell out of the spawns or something, I am using a Power Surge Smg and not even that can handle all the mobs that snag you from every direction. So, something must have been patched out or rebalanced here. There is no way a sniper could handle this solo at the moment, especially in the 2nd invuln phase of mother.
There's been a couple comments mentioning a lot more adds. There's no official patch notes saying any change was made, and im in Season 2 (hard) phase 3 so I can't even go check myself. One poster mentioned that they patched the portals to continue to respawn enemies though. Instead of being able to wipe them out and have a breather. So that's probably the main cause. If they just keep spawning endlessly. I might have to make another video in about a week when the Hard Server season difficulty LEA is out and maybe can give tips and address the changes. The only advice I can give is full food buffs with the stacking sub passives, the upgraded turrets, the weaver whim to snare and transformation cookies to break aggro on her special attacks. Kill 1 disciple at a time as they should be a linked respawn, clean up adds and position yourself to use walls as shields for projectiles. After that it's just going to come down to builds and mods.
I run power surge with high status damage, SOCR for distance and Corrosion as the secondary for up close. I have the perk where turrets can be used 5 times and also the perk that gives 1 extra use on turrets and other items from, that work bench, so each turret can be used 6 times. I carry 4 on me, and use living armor with the Gel Deviant. I just duck behind the Gel when there are too many things shooting at me.
@@DovazX it's a nice damage dealer, and it works a little different from the other surge weapons. It deals shock but it doesn't apply the power surge status. So you can pair it with the mod that does +30% power surge DMG for enemies not affected by the PS debuff. So every shot carries the +30%. But it's for the helmet and since I'm also using the SOCR, I'm using the thunder clap with mayfly googles. But if was just the shotgun, I'd use that other mod.
Ya as jja0518 mentioned, the wolf (+43%) + cradle with deviant out for +50% (this cradle may or may not work on this boss after the update, I moved to season 2 so i cant test it right now) + crit food (+15%) + mark mod/mark (+16%) and the rest is stacked up weakpoint or crit damage on mods and the main sub rolls are purple/gold with those stats too. definitely more ways to optimize it as well I only recently made the set to try out bingo sniper
@@DovazX I’ve been using the wolf for some time now. It just seems when I try to stack everything it comes up short on the damage. I’ll look back at those things. Thank you
i know this sounds controversial but me whose running predator with 89k dpa clear this solo no problem lol... u only need to know the mechanic and thats it... for the mobs or disciple if u can just gun them down so fast and having ruthless reaper as in 1 of ur mod ur good
Nah not controversial, the guide is to help teach people mechanics and gives tips for those struggling. The more progressed you are, with better mods etc the more damage you do as well as practice, the easier this gets. But a lot of people with less time than us to grind mods, make proper builds or are new to these types of games can struggle since before LEA most content had no mechanics or repeating swarms of enemies. I haven't seen anyone use predator yet in my server. Maybe I'll give it a try
@@DovazX am myself just basically goes in at lea solo and my buff is basically only living armor and the corn ale for sanity drop prevent even then said living armor is unused bring the repair artisan one and just kill everything with fully half decent predator u can clear this dungeon alone without help as long u understand the mechanic granted the mod is the hardest prt but arent all build the same anyways ps : for info am using steel ammo and alr having 75 -77k dps
Dude this is wild, I was struggling with her last 20% hp and the only change I did was swap my boots mod for ruthless reaper and the fight became a cakewalk. You're a fucking legend, thank you
All these mechanics,loot,buffs,materails,and bunch of top tier gear used for this mission make me laugh on myself when i tried to do it with a level 4 calibrated kam frank along with rustic armor, 2 fruit tea and 6 activators🤣
I try to stick with generalized helpful items with my guides that any build can use to its fullest. Damage based food is based on the viewers specific build. So crumbly for weapon damage users. Maybe stargazy pie for Crit corrosion users. There's status DMG specific food and drinks for those builds. I wanted to make a video specific for all of those food enhancements on their own instead just haven't got around to it.
The smoke granade nerf make it impossible for my build... Last phase on solo its just 2 much... Dogs, 20 mobs and thous flaying vampires, and on top of that mothers barrage... If You don't have AOE clear in Your kit don't even try this challenge...
You can get away without AOE clear if you have really high single target damage. You have to abuse "The weaver" whim though to snare every enemy that runs at you, especially the dogs. And use the turrets to help with damage and drawing enemy attention as much as possible. If the boss starts using her barrage at you, try to use a transformation cookie to break her aggro on you and it cancels the volley. You may not survive that first barrage though if you don't see it in time. You can do it! I believe in you!
@@mjtaladua1881 abuse the weaver whom to share the enemies. Use turrets to take attention from the big enemies and transformation cookies to break aggro. You can do it, I believe in you!
NEED HELP: this seasonal solo challenge needs to do in 1 run? or u can continue, for example if u fail at mother of life, u come back later, does it still counts?
@@Bobbie_Lee84 yes you can leave and come back. As long as each entry is alone. But when you get downed and use the rift adrenaline, it's used for the entire run. So if you get downed in the first fight. Leave and come back. That usage is still counted. So you'll have less lives for the final fight
I thought i was at the final boss with 2nd boss.. and that's annoying as hell.. now i'm just not gonna do it... i'll wait and see if a full group pops up at some point..
As he said, I did wolf on pro difficulty probably over 100 runs with friends and thats the best wolf we got. worth it though. This wolf is cracked for its own damage and the damage amp to your entire party
There's also a food you can make which gives you +1 on your Deviations when you get them, so if you find a 3/3 or a 4/4 they'll go up by 1 automatically.
They help, because there is a lot of little adds. But honestly I think The Weaver (whim) and having 3 super turrets out at a time while running is the 2 best things to keep the little guys from taking you down now after the smokes were nerfed. The transformation cookie to temp break aggro so they switch to your turrets should still work.
You get increased time with 2 specializations. one is for the "Kitchen Set: Gourmand" for +50% duration and the other is "Iced Treat: Brain Freeze" for an additional +200% duration on iced drinks.
How to solo LEA: Get the luckiest, most impossible to find Specializations, and probably have 3 or 4 friends who can craft things for you. Okay, bro, just tell me I won't be soloing LEA, thanks.
LEA solo is the hardest content the game has. You can't go in unprepared and expect to win. Specializations are randomized with a set amount to promote a community driven experience to trade with others and to make friends/hives/warbands. If you want to solo without a community to fill in specializations you didn't get, or if your server is dead. The only recommendation I have is to use all of the same stuff, but without the specializations. It's just going to cost more resources and you won't get the passive healing of shellbreak food. The most vital things to bring in the guide (after the smoke nade nerf) is "The Weaver" whim to trap small enemies, iced tea (coneflower) for movement and sanity protection, turrets to hold aggro and transformation cookies to break aggro on you. All of these things are available with no specializations, but can be enhanced with them. Other than that, lots of practice. You can do it, and when you do you'll feel that much more accomplished if you didn't have the specializations.
Dont have the turret specialization. Id rather pick better perks than the turrets.. I play PVE server so need that Biomass missile and Red Plasma yield+ Perks.. And acid or stardust perks.. Not wasting on that turret perks..
To each their own, you don't have to have the perk, can have a friend with it or trade with someone to craft them. But something I didn't mention in the video because im not sure if its a bug or intentional. The turrets proc your weapons specialties, while also bouncing with that specialization. Example, using the Last valor the turrets will bounce and shrapnel. Or Icy Rain will bounce and frost vortex. Use the meta bingo and now they bounce, and mark.
@@DovazX Its rare to see people choose that perks unless they dont have a choice.. asking randoms to give it is not an option either, unless i buy it and usually they sell at an absurd amount.. id rather just use the weaver potion and the wolf to take aggro off me.. when i ask world chat its just crickets nobody responds..
That's unfortunate, I seem to have been blessed with our PvP servers population. It felt very alive and I made a lot of friends along the way. We had full bartering, daily vending machine shopping sprees and everything. I took barely any of the tools specializations, including these turrets. I was the chef, and I just traded for tools/turrets/etc. We also beat each other up testing builds at basically every cargo scramble. We just communicate often in global chat to get people to the same world for events.
@@fomori2 I found it entertaining to figure out the mechs and complete the first time. After that the fun came from figuring out how to go faster with friends. We got lea down to a 5-6 minute speed run where it was enjoyable and good loot. Until your gear is at that point though it is a bit more annoying than fun for sure
@@DovazX Different play styles I guess. I am pretty much low effort, low motivation, when it comes to ARPGs. I only want to farm gear OR improve my skill in that particular game. When content requires me to do both, I stop playing. I just dont care enough.
With the smoke grenade nerf I lean way heavier on "the weaver" whim. When all those dogs and stuff rush at you, you can roll away and it webs them up for like 8 seconds. Allowing you to free shoot them or get distance and take care of bigger threats. Other than that, tossing 3 turrets out at a time and use transformation cookie even if only for a second or two to swap aggro off of you if you being overwhelmed. Good luck, after some practice I'm sure you'll get it!
ya guys so..... dont be like me and just get into a lea solo. i got cooked way to hard. I have basically drained most of my materials to repair my stuff, atm my gear is dead. my guns almost broken, almost out of my heals.
bruh belive got nothing to do with lea lab lol i killed the first two guys and went to the dr and there where i found out the harsh truth lol i didn't get to remove even the first line his beams and the miniens and his HP is another story lmao
I'm in hard mode servers now with all new dps set gear, way better mods and everything. At first it felt finally easy to farm. HP wasn't too bad and Hard server doubled the amount of minions but I use frost vortex to group and kill fairly well. And then last patch (Sept 12th) they were like ya the bosses aren't strong enough so... 10x HP added. Now it's worse than in this video when I was on novice server with tank support gear. Having soloed it again on hard server both before and after the nerf, my advice is the same. Upgraded turrets, the weaver whim to trap minions, run and shoot as much as possible. And artisan hands or duplicate gear sets to switch to when armor/weapons break mid fight. Vortex grenades can help stop adds as well if your not using frost vortex with vacuum chest.
I've been thinking about this comment all day. I can't figure out what it means. I think I'm an old man now because of it. Thank you for my existential crisis.
This game has a big problem regarding combinations of all because players really made some messed up builds that are just idiotic strong and if the game develops events for those players instead of nerfing all and forcing players to team up then i will quit this game. Far too many mmos do this and its just idiotic. Fix the buffs and move the bar up for gameplay skill instead of buffing the mechanics in a stupid way.
Was it the volume, or selection of music piece(s) that you found annoying? I'm always trying to improve my editing with each video including sounds and music
yeah , no i will just stop here this is so stupid, being level 50, doing level 60 content, what did were the devs thinking? to me it's all kinda stupidness, to gate "STORY" behind pro, give your heads a shake, like i know this is live beta, but use your heads. and the durability in here is stupid, needing to repair after a 10 min fight is outrageous, until they fix this" BETA" i will just not play, it's also kinda boring anyways so this is a good stopping point.
Sorry to see you go! Hopefully your concerns get addressed in the future to bring you back. I definitely think there's improvements to be made to things like durability loss as well. But I'm addicted and overlook a lot of the issues by treating them as challenges. Except the recent lag... oh god the lag...
It's like Dark Souls style fun, in the sense that the game presents a challenge to overcome and you feel good when you overcome it. Unlike Dark Souls though, after that first completion you really don't want to go back into LEA again.
why do u got all these background weird noises, just tryin to listen to u explain the guide and im distracted with all these weird noises in the background, sound effects, music etc isnt needed. specially when explaining a guide to a game. encounter.
I try to have my guides be Edu-tainment. A lot of viewers have expressed enjoyment from the background music and it helps keep the guide from getting dull. I also set it to -20 decibels lower than my voice so I'm surprised that it was an issue. However I only used infographics, no outside of game sound effects, so I'm not sure what noises there were outside of the background music. Hopefully it wasn't too distracting for you and you were able to take away the tips you needed to beat it. Good luck!

The only advice I can give is full food buffs with the stacking sub passives, the upgraded turrets, the weaver whim to snare and transformation cookies to break aggro on her special attacks. Kill 1 disciple at a time as they should be a linked respawn, clean up adds and position yourself to use walls as shields for projectiles. After that it's just going to come down to builds and mods.
I was thinking the same thing I can melt the bosses with the outerspace smg but the mobs just eat me alive.
I run power surge with high status damage, SOCR for distance and Corrosion as the secondary for up close. I have the perk where turrets can be used 5 times and also the perk that gives 1 extra use on turrets and other items from, that work bench, so each turret can be used 6 times. I carry 4 on me, and use living armor with the Gel Deviant. I just duck behind the Gel when there are too many things shooting at me.
I've been wanting that corrosion shotgun. I tried out a dropped one and it was kind of nutty for not being calibrated.
@@DovazX it's a nice damage dealer, and it works a little different from the other surge weapons. It deals shock but it doesn't apply the power surge status. So you can pair it with the mod that does +30% power surge DMG for enemies not affected by the PS debuff. So every shot carries the +30%. But it's for the helmet and since I'm also using the SOCR, I'm using the thunder clap with mayfly googles. But if was just the shotgun, I'd use that other mod.
How are you doing that much damage with your sniper? If you don’t mind explaining that
His Deviation (the wolf) causes him to do 43% more weapon damage to targets that the wolf attacks. He mentions it at 2:32.
Ya as jja0518 mentioned, the wolf (+43%) + cradle with deviant out for +50% (this cradle may or may not work on this boss after the update, I moved to season 2 so i cant test it right now) + crit food (+15%) + mark mod/mark (+16%) and the rest is stacked up weakpoint or crit damage on mods and the main sub rolls are purple/gold with those stats too. definitely more ways to optimize it as well I only recently made the set to try out bingo sniper
@@DovazX I’ve been using the wolf for some time now. It just seems when I try to stack everything it comes up short on the damage. I’ll look back at those things. Thank you
thats low dmg in fact for bingo hahaha i can deal 140k dmg with 1 hit... he is building for crit dmg and bingo its for weakspot dmg hahahhaa
keep it up mane
i know this sounds controversial but me whose running predator with 89k dpa clear this solo no problem lol...
u only need to know the mechanic and thats it... for the mobs or disciple if u can just gun them down so fast and having ruthless reaper as in 1 of ur mod ur good
Nah not controversial, the guide is to help teach people mechanics and gives tips for those struggling. The more progressed you are, with better mods etc the more damage you do as well as practice, the easier this gets. But a lot of people with less time than us to grind mods, make proper builds or are new to these types of games can struggle since before LEA most content had no mechanics or repeating swarms of enemies. I haven't seen anyone use predator yet in my server. Maybe I'll give it a try
@@DovazX am myself just basically goes in at lea solo and my buff is basically only living armor and the corn ale for sanity drop prevent
even then said living armor is unused bring the repair artisan one and just kill everything
with fully half decent predator u can clear this dungeon alone without help as long u understand the mechanic
granted the mod is the hardest prt but arent all build the same anyways
ps : for info am using steel ammo and alr having 75 -77k dps
Dude this is wild, I was struggling with her last 20% hp and the only change I did was swap my boots mod for ruthless reaper and the fight became a cakewalk. You're a fucking legend, thank you
Like my friend alway say just start it. It ends normally really bad or some time okay
All these mechanics,loot,buffs,materails,and bunch of top tier gear used for this mission make me laugh on myself when i tried to do it with a level 4 calibrated kam frank along with rustic armor, 2 fruit tea and 6 activators🤣
Everyone has different skill levels. Better gear just makes it easier.
Really surprised you didn't mention crumbly bread/shattered bread
I try to stick with generalized helpful items with my guides that any build can use to its fullest. Damage based food is based on the viewers specific build. So crumbly for weapon damage users. Maybe stargazy pie for Crit corrosion users. There's status DMG specific food and drinks for those builds. I wanted to make a video specific for all of those food enhancements on their own instead just haven't got around to it.
@@DovazX Oh alr I mean what do I know im still new to the game
if i need to repair can i leave dungeon come back and it still count as solo?
@@spacejam41390 yes as long as each time you entered it was solo. Progress saves.
The smoke granade nerf make it impossible for my build... Last phase on solo its just 2 much... Dogs, 20 mobs and thous flaying vampires, and on top of that mothers barrage... If You don't have AOE clear in Your kit don't even try this challenge...
You can get away without AOE clear if you have really high single target damage. You have to abuse "The weaver" whim though to snare every enemy that runs at you, especially the dogs. And use the turrets to help with damage and drawing enemy attention as much as possible. If the boss starts using her barrage at you, try to use a transformation cookie to break her aggro on you and it cancels the volley. You may not survive that first barrage though if you don't see it in time. You can do it! I believe in you!
Yea feel like a normal FF Dungeon, nice musik
Love to play solo but i think i can't finish this silo in one go solo. 😢
@@mjtaladua1881 abuse the weaver whom to share the enemies. Use turrets to take attention from the big enemies and transformation cookies to break aggro. You can do it, I believe in you!
NEED HELP: this seasonal solo challenge needs to do in 1 run? or u can continue, for example if u fail at mother of life, u come back later, does it still counts?
@@Bobbie_Lee84 yes you can leave and come back. As long as each entry is alone. But when you get downed and use the rift adrenaline, it's used for the entire run. So if you get downed in the first fight. Leave and come back. That usage is still counted. So you'll have less lives for the final fight
I thought i was at the final boss with 2nd boss.. and that's annoying as hell.. now i'm just not gonna do it... i'll wait and see if a full group pops up at some point..
You are able to leave, repair, resupply etc and come back in and continue where you left off. But it's definitely tough.
where did get a better lone wolf I have run both hard and pro and they always come out 1/1?
It's all RNG. If you really want a stronger one, you'll just have to keep grinding Shadow Hound
As he said, I did wolf on pro difficulty probably over 100 runs with friends and thats the best wolf we got. worth it though. This wolf is cracked for its own damage and the damage amp to your entire party
@@BreadSticksHobbies keep going, got a 3 3 o 3rd go
There's also a food you can make which gives you +1 on your Deviations when you get them, so if you find a 3/3 or a 4/4 they'll go up by 1 automatically.
Smoke grenades still viable after patch? Sounds like it just works for minions now.
They help, because there is a lot of little adds. But honestly I think The Weaver (whim) and having 3 super turrets out at a time while running is the 2 best things to keep the little guys from taking you down now after the smokes were nerfed. The transformation cookie to temp break aggro so they switch to your turrets should still work.
How did you get 99hrs drink buff, I usually get 30-45
You get increased time with 2 specializations. one is for the "Kitchen Set: Gourmand" for +50% duration and the other is "Iced Treat: Brain Freeze" for an additional +200% duration on iced drinks.
How to solo LEA: Get the luckiest, most impossible to find Specializations, and probably have 3 or 4 friends who can craft things for you.
Okay, bro, just tell me I won't be soloing LEA, thanks.
LEA solo is the hardest content the game has. You can't go in unprepared and expect to win. Specializations are randomized with a set amount to promote a community driven experience to trade with others and to make friends/hives/warbands. If you want to solo without a community to fill in specializations you didn't get, or if your server is dead. The only recommendation I have is to use all of the same stuff, but without the specializations. It's just going to cost more resources and you won't get the passive healing of shellbreak food. The most vital things to bring in the guide (after the smoke nade nerf) is "The Weaver" whim to trap small enemies, iced tea (coneflower) for movement and sanity protection, turrets to hold aggro and transformation cookies to break aggro on you. All of these things are available with no specializations, but can be enhanced with them. Other than that, lots of practice. You can do it, and when you do you'll feel that much more accomplished if you didn't have the specializations.
nice vid, too bad u cant do it anymore. sadge.
Smoke grenades may have been nerfed but in their place the weaver whim, transform cookie, and turrets can carry you to a victory with some practice.
GG
Dont have the turret specialization. Id rather pick better perks than the turrets.. I play PVE server so need that Biomass missile and Red Plasma yield+ Perks.. And acid or stardust perks.. Not wasting on that turret perks..
To each their own, you don't have to have the perk, can have a friend with it or trade with someone to craft them. But something I didn't mention in the video because im not sure if its a bug or intentional. The turrets proc your weapons specialties, while also bouncing with that specialization. Example, using the Last valor the turrets will bounce and shrapnel. Or Icy Rain will bounce and frost vortex. Use the meta bingo and now they bounce, and mark.
@@DovazX Its rare to see people choose that perks unless they dont have a choice.. asking randoms to give it is not an option either, unless i buy it and usually they sell at an absurd amount.. id rather just use the weaver potion and the wolf to take aggro off me.. when i ask world chat its just crickets nobody responds..
That's unfortunate, I seem to have been blessed with our PvP servers population. It felt very alive and I made a lot of friends along the way. We had full bartering, daily vending machine shopping sprees and everything. I took barely any of the tools specializations, including these turrets. I was the chef, and I just traded for tools/turrets/etc. We also beat each other up testing builds at basically every cargo scramble. We just communicate often in global chat to get people to the same world for events.
I wish the end game content wasn't so dull
The immunity phases on Giant and LEA really start to grind at you when trying to farm them overgeared.
Insert "Your aether is miiiiine"
Omg I hear Legend of Dragoon music too!
Sir, your selection of music has earned my sub. I hear 11 music in here too!
i solo'd LEA without any turret, smoke bomb, scouts or transformatioan cookie lol.
@@chengx02 nice, congrats on the solo clear
This looks utterly unfun, either for a group and especially solo.
@@fomori2 I found it entertaining to figure out the mechs and complete the first time. After that the fun came from figuring out how to go faster with friends. We got lea down to a 5-6 minute speed run where it was enjoyable and good loot. Until your gear is at that point though it is a bit more annoying than fun for sure
@@DovazX Different play styles I guess.
I am pretty much low effort, low motivation, when it comes to ARPGs. I only want to farm gear OR improve my skill in that particular game.
When content requires me to do both, I stop playing. I just dont care enough.
Its just sucked at the last phase of mother of life so much enemies and bombardment plus disciples my god my 2 stardust regulators can't keep up.
With the smoke grenade nerf I lean way heavier on "the weaver" whim. When all those dogs and stuff rush at you, you can roll away and it webs them up for like 8 seconds. Allowing you to free shoot them or get distance and take care of bigger threats. Other than that, tossing 3 turrets out at a time and use transformation cookie even if only for a second or two to swap aggro off of you if you being overwhelmed. Good luck, after some practice I'm sure you'll get it!
This is fucking crazy video holyyyy crap i can never solo this like you :D i am level 50
@@clausog2670 I'd definitely recommend finding a decent gear build and farm up some decent mods before making a solo attempt
ya guys so..... dont be like me and just get into a lea solo. i got cooked way to hard. I have basically drained most of my materials to repair my stuff, atm my gear is dead. my guns almost broken, almost out of my heals.
Definitely need a lot of prep work and then practice for this challenge
bruh belive got nothing to do with lea lab lol i killed the first two guys and went to the dr and there where i found out the harsh truth lol i didn't get to remove even the first line his beams and the miniens and his HP is another story lmao
I'm in hard mode servers now with all new dps set gear, way better mods and everything. At first it felt finally easy to farm. HP wasn't too bad and Hard server doubled the amount of minions but I use frost vortex to group and kill fairly well. And then last patch (Sept 12th) they were like ya the bosses aren't strong enough so... 10x HP added. Now it's worse than in this video when I was on novice server with tank support gear. Having soloed it again on hard server both before and after the nerf, my advice is the same. Upgraded turrets, the weaver whim to trap minions, run and shoot as much as possible. And artisan hands or duplicate gear sets to switch to when armor/weapons break mid fight. Vortex grenades can help stop adds as well if your not using frost vortex with vacuum chest.
WOAHHH LETS JUST REX BROSKI FUCKX
I've been thinking about this comment all day. I can't figure out what it means. I think I'm an old man now because of it. Thank you for my existential crisis.
The damn tree keeps kicking me off somehow. I didn't even get to this part yet....... I don't like the fact the game is not playable if not online.
Weird, some sort of bug?
bra this is too hard im getting a group 🤬
well, one season goal require you to solo lea, this is the guide for it
Too much effort for me. I want to see a dev solo it before putting up a solo challenge for it.
@@rjbenchs5399 haha that's a fair request. Would be really entertaining to see them try to do it on that mobile version they trying to release
This game has a big problem regarding combinations of all because players really made some messed up builds that are just idiotic strong and if the game develops events for those players instead of nerfing all and forcing players to team up then i will quit this game.
Far too many mmos do this and its just idiotic. Fix the buffs and move the bar up for gameplay skill instead of buffing the mechanics in a stupid way.
video is great, but that m, music is annoying AF
Was it the volume, or selection of music piece(s) that you found annoying? I'm always trying to improve my editing with each video including sounds and music
Trying to solo Lea was such a massive waste of resources It wasn't even funny.
Yeah, it's definitely best done as a one time, for the challenge / season goal. After that I find most people never want to go in again.
yeah , no i will just stop here this is so stupid, being level 50, doing level 60 content, what did were the devs thinking? to me it's all kinda stupidness, to gate "STORY" behind pro, give your heads a shake, like i know this is live beta, but use your heads. and the durability in here is stupid, needing to repair after a 10 min fight is outrageous, until they fix this" BETA" i will just not play, it's also kinda boring anyways so this is a good stopping point.
Sorry to see you go! Hopefully your concerns get addressed in the future to bring you back. I definitely think there's improvements to be made to things like durability loss as well. But I'm addicted and overlook a lot of the issues by treating them as challenges. Except the recent lag... oh god the lag...
He solo and i already 20times lose hahaha (4 people)
It's definitely tough! Needs a lot of practice and preparation to solo it
Good work, but dang that looks like some of the most un-fun crap in a video game ever.
It's like Dark Souls style fun, in the sense that the game presents a challenge to overcome and you feel good when you overcome it. Unlike Dark Souls though, after that first completion you really don't want to go back into LEA again.
why do u got all these background weird noises, just tryin to listen to u explain the guide and im distracted with all these weird noises in the background, sound effects, music etc isnt needed. specially when explaining a guide to a game. encounter.
I try to have my guides be Edu-tainment. A lot of viewers have expressed enjoyment from the background music and it helps keep the guide from getting dull. I also set it to -20 decibels lower than my voice so I'm surprised that it was an issue. However I only used infographics, no outside of game sound effects, so I'm not sure what noises there were outside of the background music. Hopefully it wasn't too distracting for you and you were able to take away the tips you needed to beat it. Good luck!
