I just had the most awesome invasion solo.
Stats:
Today 5/13/10 @ 1230 PST
Location.- Port Royal invasion
Server.- Antiaro (Empty minus an AFK basic lv 9)
Crew.- Solo (AFK basic lv 9 guy that died while still AFK) Rest his soul.
Pirate.- Dmitri Seafarer II (I'm a level (By the time you read this 48) with fully mastered weapons)
Brigades destroyed.- Four (4th brigade) Made it all the way to the Mansion's steps.
Casualties.- I was KO'd once. Lv 9 basic AFK guy died by the explosion of a keg carrier early in the fight.
Weapons.- A brief use of a rifle and a blunderbuss at the beginning then the rest with my powerful staff for all of the skely brigades.
For Jolly Rogers, I very briefly used the fire arms and staff and then I used the Grand pistol with hex eater shot for about 90% of the fight, that's probably what made me make it through it.
Life saver: Edward Shackleby, sitting on a bench in front of the Mansion. If it wasn't for this NPC's healing capabilities I would have never made it!
It was a personal record, I typically do invasions in empty servers, my personal record was 3 pirates, until now. This solo invasion was FUN !!! I ran from beach to beach then barricade to barricade like a mad man! Facing Jolly Roger almost by the mansion with full health on his part and nobody to help you was disheartening at first, I thought I'd never make it,,,
Some pix to follow:
I started to get some hope when his life bar changed to yellow.
Map shows not a soul around! just meself!
Getting pretty close now! I can almost smell the victory!
Jolly Roger defeated my me !!!
Took a few minutes to catch me breath!
