Solo Crota's End

Anyone attempted this or completed it solo? If so, what type of setup worked best for you? Using a void hunter with the dont touch me gauntlets and the zhalo auto rifle, I was able to get to the bridge but thats it before the mob thrashed me. Would Red Death be a more viable weapon for this? Ive watched a couple of videos and some people are just awesome but Id like to hear some ideas on strat for this.

  • Hey there. I know it's not the hardest content anymore, but I love solo'ing Crota. To be honest, all I would suggest for setup is to max out your agility. When I run it I cheese the lamp section and the bridge. From there I run it fairly normal. To cheese you'll need Bones of Eao to add a 4th jump to triple jump so that you get on the ledge at the 2nd lamp and also to make the bridge jump. If you don't want to or can't cheese the lamp section, I'd suggest the don't touch me gloves, and run a Telesto as your special. Shoot the ground as you're running and the purple plasma rips up the thrall chasing you. Again, max agility to help you move fast. In a panic you could teather the ground to give you a few seconds to recoup health. Once at the end you find a high perch (I like the rock beside the lamp) and wait for the abyss bridge to be built. Bridge: hit the plate, kill the sword knight and make the jump. No need to worry about the thrall. Once across get onto a rock and kill the wizards and ogre. High impact snipers for the ogres and a couple rockets to the Wizards. Hallway: shoot the first shrieker before entering the hallway and then get onto the 3rd slab to your left just inside. Rocket the 2nd and run like hell. Drop an invis smoke bomb to help if you need to. Deathsinger: I start on the right side and use Invective. Use primary I kill knight, shotgun wizard, rocket shrieker, exit room. Circle back to left side, shotgun wizard and rocket shrieker, exit room. go back to the right side room and start clearing up the knights and adds and wait until the deathsinger starts the countdown. Once they have they stop moving which helps. Teather the deathsinger and rocket her to death. Once dead exit the room and start clearing up all the add. Make sure you get all of them. Crota: clear both side adds, arm a shotgun and drop down to go for the swordbearer. Grenade the sword dude after he exits his room, shotty him, grab the sword and shift to the rock on the right. Here you've got a few options, but solar weapons are the way to go. Exotic sword, dragons breath Y2 with the flame barrel, Y2 rocket with cluster bombs, or Y1 Gally. With sword you have two swords per run, rockets only one sword. So if you go rockets you'll need 3 sword cycles. It's all about timing here. And you'll need some practice. I've run it solo lots of times. There's a flawless raider solo on my twitch highlights if you want to review the above in practice. Good luck.
