Solo Imago Loop Farm Method/Guide

[b]edit: Faster solo method on Titan can be found here: [/b] https://www.bungie.net/en/Forums/Post/211753783 ---------------------------------- Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gWYC3cZidFA There's quite a few guides and posts about how to farm the Imago Loop now that Undying Mind is the Nightfall. However there's no Solo Guides for farming it [i](probably for a good reason)[/i]. So this is to show a method to do it by yourself if you wanted to. Speed-wise this will be slower than a group method for sure, and there's a lot more personal responsibility. But if you wish to farm it on your own for whatever reason, don't have others to play with don't trust others to land their shots; this method will show you how to do it Solo. First you need to clear up to the boss on a Nightstalker Hunter. It's relatively simple if you play it safe, I have a solo run through here for reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SwwgV8iTDf8 Once you get to the boss, the following requirements are needed: -Nightstalker Hunter (spec into Max Recovery, Vortex Grenade, Vanish in Smoke and Lockdown) -Void High Impact Sniper (1000 Yard Stare, LDR, Longbow type etc) -Mid Impact Scout Rifle (I went Hung Jury here, others can be used but they may require different shots) The strategy is exactly the same as the group method but in a different spot to make up for the time it takes solo: Getting the boss to a certain threshold from a safe spot, jumping down and popping Vanish in Smoke, running right under the boss while invis and Vortex Grenading at your feet. How many exact shots you need to hit on the boss are: -21 Sniper Precision Shots -1 Sniper Body Shot -4 Hung Jury Body Shot - in the video I hit 5, but 4 is much safer so that the boss doesn't die too early Note: These are the same amount of shots you can use to hit in a group too, ideally you'd split them up. Once you hit these, jump down from the safe spot, use Vanish in Smoke and run underneath the boss. Kill yourself with a Vortex Grenade under him, and he will die with 1-2 sec on wipe timer too. Once you've respawned his loot will be there and hopefully will have dropped an Imago Loop. Doing this I was able to kill the boss 10+ times in an hour and received 3 Imago Loops and 2 Titan Butt Carpets. Just to reiterate, the benefits to doing it solo vs a group are very minimal/non-existent being completely honest. [b]This is only for those who don't have a group or don't trust other people to hit their shots and only want personal accountability. [/b] It's much faster with a good group, but the solo method is available for those that want to. Hopefully this is helpful to some - any questions feel free to ask!
