Solo Flawless Root of Nightmares on Console @hoboonwelfare_

Hobo On Welfare What can I say, this is the hardest challenge I've ever done and I'm super happy to be the 2nd one to complete this especially while being on console, GGs to Xemo for being the first do this you're insane, special thank you to Sam for the thumbnail and thank you to everyone for the tips and for all your kind words I appreciate you all.

I've probably spent around 180 hours in this raid solo but only 60ish hours doing solo flawless attempts, I would've had this done way sooner if I didn't troll so many runs and wipe due to me 3 orbing into my death xD, it took me 4 tries getting to Nez to clear with 1 final stand wipe which was heartbreaking since he was 1hp.

I honestly don't see more than 10 people doing this with the season ending soon and the upcoming nerf to Starfire which will make this super difficult since both bosses rely heavily on its damage and ability to spam proc Demolitionist, the first 2 encounters are very chill and Explicator is really the wall for this solo since there's a lot that can go wrong compared to the other encounters, yes there's a lot that can go wrong at Nez but you can avoid MOST of it unless you get really unlucky during final stand.

If you're wondering about the cut before I start Nez Xbox can only record for an hour long so I had to start a new recording, and yes before you say it I know I AM THE WORST WELL SKATER OF ALL TIME but to be fair I wasn't expecting to clear on my last attempt since it was 4 am and I was half asleep during the first 2 encounters, but GG I don't think anything will ever top this for me in terms of accomplishments it really is the pinnacle challenge of Destiny.

Day 1 Vespers Host (27th)

Hobo On Welfare 2024-10-18 | Really good day 1 and dungeon, our pacing for the first 2 encounters was insane and way ahead of everyone even with no scout but we just couldn't execute and finish strong :(

Still an awesome experience and probably my best day 1 performance ever, maybe next time :)

Solo Templar Challenge on all Characters Back to Back

Hobo On Welfare 2024-09-09 | HOORAY.

This was pretty fun, Titan is the only hard-ish character to run on due to the horrible movement, and the damage not being as free as the other characters, this took me longer than it should've due to the inconsistencies of the encounter like desynced detains/cleanses and a few unfortunate incidents(my controller died on 3rd character) 😭

If you're running Templar Challenge I would 100% use Parasite on Titan and Warlock over Dragons Breath, the insane total damage and burst make it the perfect weapon for this. I'm probably done with Templar and VoG in general so I might get into some DSC solos but we'll see, GG.

Solo Master Templar Challenge on Titan

Hobo On Welfare 2024-08-25 | HOORAY.

Took me around 17 hours, super happy to have this done as this is by far the hardest version of Templar Challenge but I actually don't think this is that bad if you have the Hoil Contact exotic class item which is what I used and a damage perk on the rocket, if you don't then this is a very tight damage check, both my GL and my Rocket didn't have a damage perk so I was basically healing the boss and had to rely on farming supers with Anti-Praetorian.

Shoutout to @Enskeria for crafting the loadout used and the tips he gave me, I probably wouldn't have even attempted this without it

Solo The Witness

Hobo On Welfare 2024-07-17 | Freedom.

Took me around 40 hours total, before the new mods this was probably one of the hardest solos ever but after the mods it's still hard but not terrible with final stand being the major wall, I'm fortunate enough to own the Cascade Bait Edge Transit so it made final A LOT easier but it's still tight.

The execution of this solo is very fun but all of the things that can prevent you from clearing that are out of your control made this so unenjoyable towards the end but I'm very happy to be done this challenge, I had come very close to clearing multiple times before this but had many throws, scams and the game deciding to wipe me, it doesn't matter how perfect a run you have or how godly you're playing the game decides if you clear or not which sucks.

I may try and clear this again without using the artifact mods since I came literal pixels of health away from doing it but we'll see, GG.

Solo 2 Floor Master Caretaker

Hobo On Welfare 2024-05-29 | WOOHOO

Super happy to get this done, with this I have completed every version of Master Caretaker.
This isn't the worst thing in the world but it's very annoying, final is very tight since you need max special, 3 heavy and surges to kill and even with all that it's still tight.

It's sucks that Master Caretaker won't be possible after this season with all the nerfs and the loss of Solo OP but hopefully prismatic introduces something broken but we'll see, GG.

Solo Master Caretaker on Warlock

Hobo On Welfare 2024-05-27 | Karnsteins Tech is powerful, took me around 2 hours.

This is basically normal mode but you take a little more damage and there's overloads, the other runs I saw of this they weren't getting stun because you took way too much damage but Karnsteins makes surviving free allowing you to stun making this a very consistent challenge, I even had bad damage on 1st floor and missed an entire plate of damage on 2nd floor and still cleared comfortably.

Going to try and get 2 floor master done, GG.

Solo Pantheon

Hobo On Welfare 2024-05-23 | Yippee, took me around 40ish hours with most of that being on Caretaker.

Caretaker is really the only challenge here but it's a mighty one, I was super close to completing this the first week but I couldn't put in as much time as I wanted, it's definitely a lot easier this time around because of Strand + Solar surge but it's still challenging and definitely the hardest version of Caretaker ever.

The other 3 encounters are basically the same as normal you just take more and deal less damage, but still a very cool challenge and I'm very pleased to have done it, my game also froze at Atraks so I had to reload it from a checkpoint so that's why the time resets if you were wondering.

I might do a few other solos I haven't touched before TFS but we'll see, GG

Solo Master Templar Challenge on Hunter (no infinite cleanse)

Hobo On Welfare 2024-05-21 | Cleanest run ever.

Quite difficult, very happy to get this done especially no infinite cleanse and no goldie chunks, took me around 23 hours but I could've cleared a lot sooner, most wipes were to ammo RNG or bad tps.

I wanted to do Titan but I just didn't have enough time this week but it is what is, GG.

Solo Legend Onslaught on Warlock

Hobo On Welfare 2024-04-25 | Xenophage sweep.

Very happy to be done with this. Warlock is much, much harder than Hunter due to worse ad clear, no invis and not really having anything to melt augments like Hunter has.

I used Xeno over Dragons because it cooks with machine gun surge and Xeno just felt better to me, shoutout to @BogOnMyDog for the original loadouts and all the info about Onslaught I learned from him. Special thank you to @vvyrin for the thumbnail. If Titan ever gets theory crafted then I will definitely do that next, GG.

I used this checklist I made to keep track of enemies and augments during my runs feel free to use it-

Solo Legend Onslaught on Hunter

Hobo On Welfare 2024-04-20 | Not that bad of a solo on Hunter, almost all of the Augments are 100% consistent and stress free on Hunter unless you get screwed by decoy/turret spawns, I wouldn't've done boss cheese but I just wanted to be done with this because I wiped on wave 49 to a bug a few runs prior to this, I'm probably going to go for Warlock next as that's much more challenging than Hunter, GG.

And excuse the brain rot yapping going on in this it's the only thing that made this boring solo somewhat enjoyable, thank you to @vvyrin for the thumbnail.

Solo Master Templar Challenge on Warlock

Hobo On Welfare 2024-02-11 | Took me 24 hours, pretty difficult challenge but painfully RNG.

I didn't really enjoy this because of how many things can scam you like not getting ammo, not having ads to melee, getting one shot by minotaurs when going to cleanse, minotaurs teleporting in front of ads as you melee, melee tracking, teleport RNG, and how inconsistent damage can be, but I'm very happy to have this done. I'm not really interested in anything in the game right now, but I might go for solo 2 floor master Caretaker, GG.

Hobo On Welfare 2024-02-04 | Cool challenge, didn't take me that long so I had fun with it but I'm so glad to be done with RoN,
pretty happy with my runs and how fast this was.

I wasn't even planning on doing this it was just a spontaneous decision I made after I cleared Titan and Hunter 4 days ago but it's just too easy, probably going to go for Solo Flawless VoG next, GG.

Solo Flawless Root of Nightmares on Hunter

Hobo On Welfare 2024-02-01 | Probably the most enjoyable of the 3 classes, slightly more difficult but not by much.

This was actually my 2nd clear of this but I never recorded my first because I cleared on my very first attempt which I was not expecting but just goes to show how mickey mouse solo raids are this season with the broken mods, I'll either go for B2B2B or get into solo VoG stuff next just depends on how I'm feeling, GG.

Overall a very easy challenge, only took me 3 hours with the hardest part being 2nd Warp death timing, I figured out the lineup quickly and it was free after that. This solo looks intimidating at first but I honestly think it's one of the easiest in the game, GG.

Solo Caretaker on All Classes Back to Back (no wipes)

Hobo On Welfare 2024-01-04 | Pretty cool challenge overall, didn't take me long at all because I'm just so consistent at solo Caretaker. I've had the idea to run B2B2B for awhile I just never got around to it because I was doing other stuff but recently I've been having a ton of fun running this encounter with having completed Master and all the different versions being possible at the moment, I just love solo Caretaker.

I started with Hunter first because it's the least consistent of the 3 classes because of the slower running and not being able to leave early on first floor since damage is the worst of the 3 classes, this was my first attempt at this past Hunter, Titan and Warlock are so consistent with running and damage that they can be cleared with ease if you're experienced enough.

I really don't have anything else to do with this encounter, I've done every iteration of this and there's nothing left so this might be my last Caretaker video for the foreseeable future until a new version of this is found, GG.

Solo Master Caretaker

Hobo On Welfare 2024-01-01 | What can I say, this is the hardest challenge I've done in this game. This took me around 40 hours of actual attempts and I'm super happy to have this done after only starting to learn a few days ago.

Special thank you to @vvyrin for keeping me sane in VC during this challenge and for the fire thumbnail.

This is the hardest version of Caretaker ever for a few reasons, the biggest one being light level, I ran this at only 1798 so I was -42, then all the other BS that can happen like your mountaintop blowing up early, symbols not accepting, bees blocking and moving the grapple point, plates bugging out and losing out on damage and thermite grenades being shot out of the air, on top of all the mountains of RNG with getting heavy ammo and symbols during running, GG :3

Thank you to everyone who watched and followed for the few days I attempted this on stream.

Solo Caretaker on Hunter (post YAS nerf)

Hobo On Welfare 2023-12-12 | Took me about an hour, this was actually my 2nd clear of this I just never recorded my first kill so I decided to run it back.

This is not that difficult, compared to old Hunter this is suuuuuuuper free, this version you can clear on very scuffed damage because of Dragons Breath final and there's 0 ammo RNG involved since all your damage comes from Lucky Pants and Blade Barrage, overall still the hardest version of Caretaker currently until Master comes around, GG.

Solo 2 Floor Caretaker

Hobo On Welfare 2023-12-12 | Took me 2 tries, literally. This actually used to a bit a bit challenging last season due to the ammo RNG needed for final but with this seasons mods and Dragons Breath for final you really only need 1 Thermite Rocket combo to kill it's that easy, shoutout CRACK for believing, GG.

Hobo On Welfare 2023-12-02 | Awesome Dungeon, was very pleased with it and it's definitely the best dungeon they've released in a LONG time.

Getting 16th was nice but losing almost 6 minutes to a soft lock on 2nd boss costing us 5th place definitely stings but still GGs, shoutout to JAMIE and Cookie for being goated teammates :D

Solo Caretaker but I Skip 1st Floor Damage

Hobo On Welfare 2023-11-30 | Season of Mickey Mouse out in full force. Pretty fun and goofy challenge showcasing the broken artifact mods in Season of the Wish.

Apotheosis buff goes crazy for Vow content allowing you to get 5 grenades off in quick succession, pair that with Into the Light and Thermite grenades and you just do insane DPS, in fact you can kill Caretaker on the first plate in final stand if you push threshold which is just bonkers and the first time this has been possible without bugs, GG.

Solo Atheon in Season of the Witch

Hobo On Welfare 2023-10-27 | Took about 24 hours, this solo really isn't that hard it's mainly just RNG. I attempted this a bit during the crafting bug but I never got to damage but these new strats make this 10x easier, I got scammed a lot during this and had a few chokes but this is pretty free you just need to 2 phase, GG.

If you're wondering why I switch inputs during this it's because on controller I can't turn my camera when I do the finisher so getting into the right spot for oracles is much harder forcing me to use MnK.

Solo Ir Yut, The Deathsinger

Hobo On Welfare 2023-10-03 | Only took me 3 hours, I had a lot of fun with this solo, it's not too bad the only really hard part is getting the wizards to cooperate with you but luckily I didn't have that many issues with that.

This run was so scuffed with me starting 1st phase late and a lot of my melees whiffing, I also could've 2 phased but I ran out of ammo during 2nd damage but 3 phases isn't all that bad you just need to be really quick at baiting the wizards and have good ammo, GG.

Solo Caretaker on Strand Titan

Hobo On Welfare 2023-09-15 | Took about 6 hours, this solo was hard until the Navigator strat was found and it is now VERY EASY.

Very similar to Void Titan with running being free with grapple and damage being insane, funnily enough I could've 2 floored this run if I swapped to Tractor Cannon on 2nd floor but oh well I will get around to that eventually, GG.

Solo Caretaker on Hunter

Hobo On Welfare 2023-08-27 | It's finally done man, after 4 seasons Hunter Caretaker is finally done, I've been wanting to get this done so badly and it's finally over, special thank you to Bless for the thumbnail.

Over 100+ hours of attempts in Seraph and 10+ hours of attempts this season, this solo is only possible with mods that increase your damage and even then it's very difficult to hit the damage and VERY RNG dependent on heavy ammo for final stand, this is probably the hardest solo I've ever done and my proudest achievement.

This is the first clear of Hunter Caretaker post Lightfall and 5th clear overall, with this I have officially done solo Caretaker on all 3 classes, I will go for solo 2 floor when loadouts are reenabled, GG.

Solo Caretaker on Solar Titan

Hobo On Welfare 2023-08-18 | Took a little over 10 hours, pretty fun challenge and imo the easiest version of Titan yet.

Was very surprised to see new strats for Titan that weren't using Strand but I'm very happy this was found, running on Titan sucks now with the shoulder charge nerf but with stun you should still be able to make it every time, Damage is insane for this version, Thermites grenade do A LOT and you should always break threshold as long as you you hit all of your grenades. Final stand still relies on heavy ammo RNG but it's not as bad with this version because of how much damage Thermite grenades do you just need to shoot bees and focus on getting a grenade off on each plate.

With this clear I have done Titan Caretaker on all 3 light subclasses which is very cool, hopefully in the future Hunter Caretaker will be possible as it's the only class I haven't done Caretaker on, GG.

Solo Nezarec on Titan

Hobo On Welfare 2023-07-25 | Took 13 hours, pretty fun and actually harder than I thought it would be, damage with Apex is super tight and very unforgiving, idk why the quality is so bad at some parts my bad.

Definitely the hardest version of Solo Nezarec but this is suuuuper easy if you have a Cold Comfort but it requires you to have 8+ loadouts which is annoying and I don't even have a rocket yet so I decided to clear with Apex incase I ever want to attempt solo flawless on Titan, with this being done I've officially solod Root of Nightmares on all 3 characters besides solo flawless Hunter and Titan, I'm still deciding if I want to do those but I'm very tempted to go for Titan, GG.

Solo Explicator on Titan

Hobo On Welfare 2023-07-21 | Took 7 hours, could've cleared a lot quicker if arm mods weren't disabled and I got the Stasis GL sooner than I did, imo this is the most enjoyable and easiest version of solo Explicator at the moment.

This challenge is pure ammo RNG, survivability is a joke with Devour and constant Overshield with Repulsor Brace, ad clear is a bit tricky at first but it's very consistent if you spam volatile with your melees and running is almost on par with Warlock. Damage is very forgiving since you have debuff for every plate and you don't have to worry about dying because of Helm of Saint you can focus purely on cooking, I even messed up damage on phases 1 and 3 but still managed to break threshold that's how insane Titan is, GG.

I didn't really have any fun with this challenge due to the ammo RNG and all the other bs that can happen, I may go for solo flawless but I want to attempt some stuff on Titan first, GG.

Solo Caretaker in Season of the Deep

Hobo On Welfare 2023-07-18 | Wanted to post a new clear of Warlock Caretaker with Sunbracers and the new final strat.

Warlock Caretaker is way easier now than when I first cleared it, the no stun strat makes running 100% consistent as long as you have good movement and Sunbracers do INSANE damage, this will always be my favourite solo and I hope one day Bungie will release a mod that makes Hunter possible :(

Hobo On Welfare 2023-07-07 | Very easy challenge, took me around 3 hours but could've gotten it sooner.

This is definitely the most chill version of Solo Nezarec and it probably will be for the foreseeable future, damage is super consistent to the point where you can do really bad damage and still clear, I might go for Solo Flawless Hunter just depends on how bored I get, GGs.

Overall I had a lot of fun with this encounter compared to Nez, not a lot of rng to this besides ammo and damage plate colors, Merciless Rocket strat makes this pretty free and way easier than Linears, don't bully me for my bad gameplay lol, GG.

This is the easiest solo boss challenge in the entire game and it's not even close, all you do is turn off your brain and spam Sunbracers on every ad spawn point and go damage him over over again, Solo Explicator is coming very soon, GG.

Solo Nezarec on Console

Hobo On Welfare 2023-04-08 | This took me 67 hours, man this solo is annoying but I'm so glad to have it done. I'm the first to do this on console which is pretty cool but I could have had this done so much sooner, the reason it took me so long was because I was using a Blowout with no Field Prep meaning I only had 8 rockets to use for damage when all the other clears are using a 9 or 10 ammo rocket.

This isn't a very hard solo just a ton of bugs and inconsistencies that make it a bit unbearable, I wiped in final about 20 times and traded with the boss 5 times, the game gave me some luck and pretty much gifted me a free kill with the extended final stand and the amount of ads remaining next to me, don't know if I'll try solo Planets or not just depends on how bored I get lmao, GG.

For my loadout see this screenshot: cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1084779192509530153/1093420336193753139/solo_nezarec_loadouts_png_final.png

Shoutout to CocaCola56 for the goated strat that makes this 10x easier.
