History of Aphelion's Rest Flawless Solo Mastery
Revision 36589 by archivist at 2026-10-12 19:23:06
Aphelion's Rest Flawless Solo Mastery is a 5-point triumph for completing the Aphelion's Rest Lost Sector on Master difficulty, solo, without dying.
== The Lost Sector ==
Aphelion's Rest is a Lost Sector on The Strand in the Dreaming City, added in Season of the Lost. Enemies are mostly Taken (lots of Thrall, Acolytes, Hobgoblins, Psions and Phalanxes) ending in a Taken Knight boss.
== Champions and modifiers ==
- The entrance has one Unstoppable Phalanx; the tree encounter has two Overload Hobgoblins and an Unstoppable Phalanx; the boss arena repeats that with the Knight.
- Master has 3 Unstoppable and 4 Overload champions (Legend has 2 and 2); per-room counts vary between reports.
- Master modifiers listed: Surge (Solar and Strand), Overcharge (Shotgun), Threat (Stasis), Shields (Void), plus Attrition, which sharply cuts regeneration. Modifiers rotate by season; an older set included Overcharged Weapons and Epitaph geysers.
- Void shields are common; bring Void damage.
== Recommended builds ==
- Anti-Champion: Le Monarque (stuns Overload), or a Chill Clip special such as Riptide. Unstoppable needs a rocket or heavy; Gjallarhorn or Apex Predator are good heavy options, and Solar hand cannons for primary.
- Subclasses that work well: Arcstrider, Sunbreaker, Shadebinder. Survivability matters because of Attrition.
- Take cover, kill long-range threats first, clear Thrall before they multiply, and save your Super for the boss.
== Solo ==
Go slowly and use the doors/cover between rooms. Solo walkthroughs of the full route exist, for example for a Titan Master solo flawless run.
== Completing it ==
Same as Aphelion's Rest Solo Mastery but you may not die at any point. Use cover and fight at range, kill Overload and Unstoppable champions with your stun and heavy pieces, break Void shields with Void weapons, and keep distance from Thrall swarms. If you die, leave and restart. It is rated a B-tier (average) farm, so it is one of the more forgiving Master sectors. Prerequisite triumphs: Aphelion's Rest Solo Mastery.
