Prophecy is impossible to solo without taken barrier.
I’ve been trying to solo prophecy for months but I can’t do it regardless of which mods or weapon setups I use. Even with double concussive dampener and max recovery or resilience even behind cover or in a rift I get absolutely melted by the knights. It takes me 1-2 hours just to pass the first boss encounter. Why does bungie have to make everything so damn difficult. I just want the ghost. I hate that loot is locked behind soloing activities in a cooperative multiplayer game. I can get prophecy done in 20 minutes or less and flawless with a group but I can’t even get past the first boss solo. They need to add a difficulty modifier or something for soloing it so it’s at least possible for those with average skill levels. Or at least make it possible to use taken barrier in prophecy. I know I could beat it if I had better damage reduction but max resilience with double concussive dampener isn’t enough.

If you think taken barrier is the main thing prohibiting you from beating it go and get taken barrier and surely you'll be able to bang it out quick smart

3 RepliesPurely cosmetic loot is locked behind being a skilled player, stop whining

Just use hunter invisibility and witherhoard

Well then get better at the game, get taken barrier, or just don’t solo it. Easy fix. If you really want a (purely cosmetic) reward for completing a challenging activity by yourself that was made to be difficult for three people, then it is going to be incredibly difficult to complete. I do not understand why that would be so confusing, it is basic logic.

1 hour at the first boss, really? You aren’t ready to solo it yet.

5 RepliesMy friend did it solo without taken mods just because people kept telling him he needed them. Lol

Not impossible, just difficult. I died twice at final boss and never attempted it again. I never got taken mods so it was just that much harder, not worth it for a meaningless emblem.

Edited by Kepler ツ: 9/10/2021 12:21:10 AMHonestly I find prophecy easier on a titan. Bottom tree sunbreaker, icefall mantle, utility finisher was what I used all the way through it. For weapons, I used Crown-splitter, a blinding grenades gl and fatebringer for the first boss. I used a sleeper and wrath of rasputin everywhere else. Throughout entire dungeon, I always kept survival in mind and always had a spot cleared out so I can regen and reload. If you keep banging your head against the wall trying to do it, take a break and come back refreshed.

It's supposed to be hard. The sparrow, ghost and emblem won't mean anything if they're a handout. This game is already too easy for the most part. There should be things that some players just can't get. Try rocking solar resist on your chest as well as concussive. Witherhoard is also killer. Hope you get it mate

Someone in my clan managed it after like 4 hours. They used devour for the whole thing.

4 RepliesGot a Solo Flawless completion on my Warlock in Season of the Splicer, and I can regularly solo my way to the final encounter on both Warlock and Hunter (haven’t tried on Titan) with few to no deaths. Rat King with catalyst helps tons thanks to invis plus healing. Paired with either Well of Radiance on Warlock or Way of Trapper using Sixth Coyote further increases survivability thanks to additional emergency healing or invis respectively, as well as the ability to bump your damage output against bosses. Using Particle Deconstruction paired with a good Fusion helps with taking out Knights or dealing damage to Bosses as well. If your loadout isn’t working out for you, just try switching things out. You can do it (even without the Taken specific mods people had access to when Prophecy went live), it just takes a good build and practice. (΄◉◞౪◟◉｀)

5 RepliesI’ve soloed it many times simply for fun, yes the Taken mods made it easier but it’s not impossible by any means. Now to be completely honest but I’ve never tried it in a warlock I’ve always used my hunter, but it’s seems to me your prob isn’t lack of resilience it’s mobility. Try cranking up your mobility, the secret is to never stop moving, if your using a rift your staying in one spot and that’s death. You need to shoot and scoot.

Edited by Blaster Dark Diablo: 9/10/2021 3:15:03 AMIt's easy to solo even without taken mods just get a better loadout and know what subclass to use on each character. you don't need much to complete the dungeons you can pretty much solo everything in under 40 minutes. So better your skills because even the best loadouts are useless with a worthless player. This game is about adapting and having good loot. So better your skills and have a better loadout. Because even a below average player can still manage to complete it within 4 hours. An average player can do it in 2 hours. I am an above average so I can solo it within 40 minutes like the rest. Pros can do it within 20 minutes. So just get good and know what to do. Prophecy is an easy solo dungeon just learn how the damage phase works.

4 RepliesEdited by Malaia: 9/10/2021 2:51:47 AMI did it back when it first came out with invis Hunter with the sixth coyote, without taken barrier. Try that. It allows you to take your time more with things

Just don’t die

2 Replies99.9% of this game is painfully easy and boring. Please don’t ask for the few somewhat difficult things to be easier. That’s the last thing we need lol.
-
Did you check out any guides? So many have completed it before you. Maybe your skill level isn't there? I don't have the skill or patience, so I don't bother with solo.

Blinding grenades, your welcome. I was farming today to get a well rolled Judgment, i was the only one using ignition code, those 2 had an easy time, no deaths.

5 RepliesI never used the taken mods. I used Thundercrash for the Phalanx and camped Sunbreaker with Ashen Wake for the rest of the dungeon.
