World’s First Solo The Witness

THIS ENTIRE JOURNEY WAS STREAMED AT 😀👍 What a journey. For the past 2 weeks I’ve been subjecting myself to this nightmare and it’s finally over. At first it was a lot of testing with my chat to see what rotations were good, spreadsheet math to find out if this was even possible, and for the past week I have been grinding 12 hours on stream running solo attempts to try and hit the god run - well I finally hit it and here it is. Roughly 150 hours including theory crafting and testing, this challenge has to be the most brutal I have completed in this game. Because this game is weird, sometimes golden gun “chunks“ and does more damage to the health bar than it should - this can also happen with still hunt. In order to hit the damage check required for this you rely on at least 1 golden gun chunk. It is not extremely rare so expecting 1 chunk in roughly 20 golden gun shots over the whole solo is not unrealistic but is pretty cringe. Thankfully, I hit one of these golden gun chunks on final stand which made up for the fact that I started final stand late due to not fully charging still hunt before final - Yes this is lucky but the amount of clearable runs I lost to the most absurdly unlucky things, I think I deserved it. Thankfully in less than a week this damage check will become far more achievable due to the act 2 artifact mods, which will probably make this one of the coolest solos in the game - as for this clear, it requires near perfect execution during damage and a little bit of luck too. I wouldn’t recommend this solo to anyone right now, but at reset I will be running this up and will post a clear using the new artifact mods and give an update on how difficult it is with those mods. This would have taken me so much more time if it weren’t for people in my community spending HOURS in here helping me get to damage so I could test different strats and rotations, so huge shoutout to everyone who ever helped me - I’m glad I could get this done for all of your hard work and I appreciate you all a lot. The biggest shoutout and GGs to @thesnazzzyrock who, if he had the luck I had in this run, would have cleared before me for sure, so massive massive ggs to dabs I love you homie.
