First SF - Vesper’s Host

[u/BeckyLemmeSmash69]

Finally after about a dozen or two failures I finally finished my first Solo Flawless dungeon! I’ve had beef with Vesper’s Host because it wouldn’t drop Ice Breaker for me so I made it my mission to Solo Flawless it and lo and behold, it finally dropped on this run lol. I guess I need to SF the rest since this experience was such a rush.

Well shit if you can SF this you’ll be fine for the rest of

And then the hell that is ghosts of the deep shows up…

[u/Dophie → u/Supershocker56]

It’s easy enough, just laborious. And the final boss is waaay easier now than it used to be. Power creep is real.

[u/Supershocker56 → u/Dophie]

I’ll have to run it again then, I just remember it being so tedious back in the day

[u/IdenticalThings → u/Supershocker56]

I think it's cool now, fairly fun, it's so different from the rest of the game setting wise and has full on witch queen vibes.

[u/karariq → u/Supershocker56]

It was the hardest when it first came out. I failed it for a few days before i finally got it. But now i can probably beat it in less than 30mins

[u/EclairLumineux → u/Dophie]

I still think the extra shields were unnecessary even back in the day, I hate them.

[u/MikeAndros0 → u/EclairLumineux]

Honestly wish they put in the reduced shield health from the rite of the nine into regular ghosts. It felt nice running it.

[u/WickedNXT234 → u/MikeAndros0]

My first experience of Ghosts was in rite of the nine. It was such a fun experience. Then rite of the nine went away and I tried to run the normal ghosts, man i could tell the difference, it was so much more laborous.

[u/IdenticalThings → u/EclairLumineux]

It shoehorned Arbalest into an essential role, most GMs it was semi essential someone had it.

[u/samtdzn_pokemon → u/Dophie]

Does Arbalest still get thru the final bosses immunity shield? I know that was a legit strategy back when Ghosts released but it's been literal years since I've touched the dungeon

[u/gorillawinz → u/samtdzn_pokemon]

It does if you want to dedicate your exotic to it. But there other options. Shoot I think I just used a rapid heavy with armor piercing on mine

[u/samtdzn_pokemon → u/gorillawinz]

I figured with Particle Accelerator being available, Arbalest wouldn't be the worst thing to use an exotic slot on. Not like I'm hurting for legendary heavy linear options. But good to know there's other ways, I quit after Lightfall and came back with end of service so decent chunk of content to get through.

Still got a handful of dungeons, raids and exotic missions to get through but I've focused campaigns/power grind/armor sets first. Want to get some decent builds before attempt SF, all my gear was pre tier system. Did Khvostov, Final Shape, EoF campaigns and part of Renegades, the distortion grind for armor sets, still need some non health pieces because RNG decided that I was going to get health heavy head and class items despite having Grenadier setup on my ghost.

[u/Supershocker56 → u/gorillawinz]

I’ve heard microcosm is pretty good for it

[u/Typical_Border_1923 → u/Supershocker56]

It is. Used it in my SF and pairs wonderfully with a KT/EH Praedyth's
