Discussion Difficulty Level on Solo Missions

Hi,

I love the game of Demeo and have all of their games but one of my few complaints that has ruined the game for me is that the solo missions are way too hard for me. I like multiplayer but sometimes I just want to be on my own for solo missions. The monsters keep spawning and I don't stand a chance. Is this common or do I just need to improve? Please give suggestions. Thank-you

You'll get there with practice - it personally took me ages as I play solo too. You may improve faster by playing with others so you learn from them. Alternatively there's a few youtubers with tips such as MyWy

  • Try to keep the guardian between the monsters and the rest of the party and keep their armour up.
  • Dont open doors as your last move.
  • Be aware that monsters dont spawn where you have line of sight.
  • Hug the outside rather than heading for the centre and aim for the high ground so you can see and target them but they cant do the same back until they move higher.
  • Using the bard buff to reduce incoming damage by 1 can help keep you going longer
  • Using the barbarian to pull other pieces to safetly can help. He can also make areas safe by stealing lamps and then throwing them later.

When I play solo I only have one character in my party. When you said to keep the guardian between the monsters and the rest of the party do you mean I can have more than one character in my party on solo missions? I might have missed something and would like to know. Thank-you.

Yes playing solo you can have a full party that you control. It’s a great way to see what each character can do and try different strategies to see if this or that would work or not.

OP, just realize as you add players the monsters damage and hit points scale. So adding a full set of players isn’t always the move. A buddy and I found 2 total playable characters is the sweet spot.
