Was doing a solo run of spire, went well for the most part nevermind the 9 phase akkelous but once I reached Persys, I literally just couldnt pull if off.
#How to solo Persys

I was running grand overture on a void subclass for hunter so I could go invis and run if in trouble and I still couldnt ever kill him. Closest run was like 4.4 million damage or something like that.
How much health does this thing have? And what can I do to be able to finish the solo run whenever I retry tomorrow?
To add: I dont have thunderlord so I cant use that.

two tailed fox is best imo (if you have cata)
you can take as long between damage phases to get more ammo as you need (assuming survival isn't an issue)

can't finish from checkpoint tomorrow, has to all be in 1 go, start over at beginning (whomp whomp...)
for solo runs, it's all about:
- maximize survivability, death = SIGNIFICANT time lost
- Increase damage output as much as possible while maintaining survivability

I do have it, but was worried about running out of ammo for some reason

Ya, ik. I was gonna finish the boss with friends for the chance at the bow and then restart one
I was running void to try and have a get out of jail free card up fairly frequently with the vanishing step. Obviously that didn’t work out.
I also saw someone one shot the dude with arc nades or something like that which is interesting, but i don’t really want to cheapen my first solo of the dungeon with that lol

i feel you gamer, it took me a while as well. i found the thing that worked for me was witherhoard then a RL with demo and explosive light. if all else fails there’s always the cheese…

naa it'll be hard to empty ALL the shots in 1 dps phase, and takes 2-3 bricks (with scavs) to refill
taking out the hydras/minos with void (bricks from beyond) helps
brazen barn
when i beat him i had to do i think 4-5 dps phases? im void hunter and i used my sidearm with repulsor brace for more protection (1/2)
and for dps i used regnant and witherhoard so i could do tick damage and do more burst damage with the gl cause the dps hpase is pretty short (2/2)
honestly tho with the solo dungeons, focus on living first and dps second lmao when i finally got the garden harpy boss done in spire i was probably close to double digit dps phases

Ive been using my GG smg with repulsor brace perpetual motion.
I did a few more runs on him as essentially practice for when I restart tomorrow
closest ive gotten is a second and third 3.4ish mil damage run

osteo striga with any void class works great with devour, for dps leviathan

I used Sleeper for my solo and my later Solo Flawless, just gotta hit the crit but it’s decent

honestly my suggestion is to watch some speedrunner do it
try xemo or someone like him
hezen + starfire + well
solo speedrunners like him optimize for damage so copying their loadouts rarely goes wrong
especially since all mods are available now
terse gust
speed runners are the best people to watch when trying to learn anything
why my akelous only took me 3 phases

I wanted to do it on my hunter as I really dislike the jumps on other classes and seem to find creative ways to fail even the simplest parkour with warlock for example.
It’s why I prefer playing hunter almost all the time
Otherwise I certainly would have tried it
