I haven't soloed it in quite some time, but have soloed it 11 times in the past. Won 7 lost 4. I'm not sure if you CAN still run it solo.
The BB does 'adjust' it's level of hardness based on the # of crew and thier level of Noto. I have done it solo where only two of the frigates will shoot at you, and only one side wall at each bridge will shoot. I have also seen it done with a crew of 12 level 40's and they take a MASSIVE pounding from the frigates.
If you went at it with only 2 people, and one was lower level , it probably WAS on easy mode. Not that it is ever a gimme, cause it isn't.
The BB has changed over time. When it was first released, it was buggie as all get out. They pulled it for a long time, and lots of pirates were ready for it when it was re-released in like Feb or early Mar '08. It was hard, but not impossible, and most people figured it out after only a few weeks.
Then, I think it was in September last year, they modified it again. Almost exactly what it is today. Most people complained that it got too hard. But in only a few weeks, most had the new "pattern" figured out again. It is still harder than it was before that ??September?? release.
I have found that my ideal crew is about 6 to 8 pirates. HAve at least a couple very high level, a few in their 30 with decent cannon skills, and a couple in their high 20's who are the one(s) trying to win. This gives you a nice challenge, but doesn't make the Navy aggression level to hard.
As far as the Goliath is concerned, it's a pushover. Always has been. If you make it past the 4th bridge with any health at all, you can beat the Goliath.
