Loramin moved page Solo Artist Challenge to Solo Artist Challenge (Work in Progress)

New page

Do not edit this page unless you are making an effort to improve it for everyone. (This applies to the entire wiki, but this page in particular has recently been the subject of an "edit war".)

'''NOTE: This page is a work in progress; currently no "official" Velious-era Solo Artist Challenge exists.'''

The solo artist challenge is a self-enforced "competition" by players at the highest level to determine which of the most challenging mobs on the server can be soloed (and/or duoed or trioed). To see a list (or add yourself to the list) of previous challenge winners, see the [[Solo Artist Challenge Hall of Fame]].

The original Solo Artist Challenge was started in [https://www.project1999.com/forums/showthread.php?t=80165&highlight=solo+artist+challenge this forum thread] by Loraen (and there is a wiki version too: [[Solo Artist Challenge (Kunark Era)]]), but a new version which incorporates Velious is now being worked on. A copy of the Kunark-era challenge is included below to serve as a starting point for the Velious-era challenge. Please feel free to edit it, so long as you are being respectful of the conversation [https://www.project1999.com/forums/showthread.php?t=278600 here]

==Solo Artist Challenge (In Progress)==

===Rules===
The community cannot agree (so far) on the exact rules/structure/tiers of soloing. For example, there is disagreement whether different types of "clickies" (eg. unlimited, charged, or potions) should be allowed during solos, and if so how much their use lowers the "rank" of that particular attempt.

As a result, there are no official standards, and any individuals attempting to simply force their opinion of what standards should exist (by editing this page) may face wiki suspension.

For the time being, all that can be said is that the following factors make a solo easier. However, ''how much'' easier is debatable: for example, the original challenge rules allowed melees to receive buffs from other players (but not casters) and allowed pull assistance.

<ul>
<li>Using "strong" clickies (permanent or charged) such as {{:Puppet Strings}}, {{:Donal's Chestplate of Mourning}} (pre-nerf), {{:Manastone}}, {{:Soulfire}}, {{:Reaper of the Dead}}, {{:Wooly Spider Silk Net}}
<li>Using potions or other weaker clickies
<li>NOTE: The community agrees that using an excess of {{:Potion of Stinging Wort}} is similar to using strong clickies
<li>Receiving buffs from other players
<li>Help pulling the mob or clearing other mobs in its area
</ul>

===Exploit kills do not count===

Please note that any attempts abusing a major exploit (examples: using water to negate damage on fights like fungi king or to avoid dragon breath AOE) do not count.

===Ranks===

Again, the community has yet to reach a consensus on ranks ... but once it does, the following "rank rules" will likely apply (they come from the original challenge, and no one has contested them).

To complete a rank, you must kill 50% of the named on that rank, and that 50% must include names from all major areas (i.e. soloing the Sebilis Crypt itself does not make you a Solo Master, you have to do HS South too). Completion of prior ranks is not required. Solo kills will result in the title of of 'Solo Disciple/Master/Grandmaster'; likewise with duos. Killing everything on the list from Grandmaster on down will result in the title of 'Legend'. Achieving a solo rank implies the previous duo rank, since they are the same mobs (a Solo Master is automatically a Duo Disciple, since they could achieve the same results while powerleveling some noob).

Artists will be sorted by maximum solo/duo score, secondary solo/duo score, and time of achievement. If you feel like you have met the requirements for a rank or you have killed a god-tier mob, post it on the forums to be added to the wiki page (formerly Loraen/Sakuragi/Dramor was tracking it). Screenshots and videos are highly encouraged but not required; it's still cool to read verified field reports of epic fights.
