Archeage Unchained - Mistsong Banquet - How to Solo Lane to Wave 18

Описание: I am playing at 180 ping. I only managed to solo to wave 18 because my pug team die. This is done using an low level alt, in other words, this method can used by literally everyone.

DPS crystal is not a priority, only pick it up if you got time.

On some waves, you can see me trying to skill 3 the mobs but sometime it doesn't work so I change to skill 4. The main goal is just to either delay them to cluster them up so the flame tower at mid can hit all of them and as long as possible and likewise the back towers will complement the delay with more cc. Clustering mob is a huge rng where one hope that the shock tower will shoot at the correct time, what you can do is try your best to cc the front mob into correct position. Upgraded frost will slow the mob noticeably longer. At times you might need upgrade one shock just to make sure the mob cluster up properly.

For wave 14, changing the center flame tower to shock tower is more efficient against the mobs. You should do this if you have bad crystals rng, resulting in little thunder towers.

On wave 19, change all lasers back to thunder. Then change one 2nd row's frost to shock tower. When the wave start, change the first row's shock tower to frost after its first shot. Then do the same for 2nd row's shock tower. Hopefully, all your frost tower will slow each mob. If doesn't, use frost arrow on the mob that is missed.

On wave 20, upgrade all to thunder (include mid) or rapid canon (if not possible to thunder). You don't have to do anything more, just run to center and wait for wave over.

There are other solo layouts but I use this because the back tower is much more easier accessible and most importantly, the layout is simple. The max towers are near the 3 crystals spawn and I can change the tower immediately after I grab the crystals which also means I got time to pick up any crystals at the pillar. Most importantly, as solo, you must always consider the possibility of you leaking thus these back towers are in range to dps the mobs that reach the statue.

Bug: Sometimes you see me patrolling alongside the mobs. I do this because there is a bug where when the mobs drop more than one crystals close to each other, you can only pick up one while the rest disappear. The only workaround is to pick it up as soon as it drop.

Exploit: In banquet, there is a bug that allow you to upgrade the last 3 stage of the towers at a lower cost. This bug is triggered when two person upgrade at the same time or when one person upgrade it rapidly while hoping the server lag during that time. Do note you can end up wasting crystals if two or more players upgrade the last stage at the same time.

Other bug not shown: Mage can deal high dps with fireball, so having them taking dps buff will boost their dps to a scary level.

Other exploit not shown: It is possible to upgrade one single tower to both laser and thunder. You just need two person doing it at the same time with each person choosing the different upgrade.

Another exploit not shown: Apparently it is possible to upgrade nearby towers (near a max tower) to thunder or laser without even maxing them though their damage remains at level 0. Personally, I think it is a meaningless exploit.
