Soloing Fleet Actions

SystemSystem Member, NoReporting Posts: 178,019 Arc User
Just curious, has anyone done a fleet action solo? I dislike trying to find a fleet to join in order to do these thigns. As a matter of fact, by some draw of luck I got to form a fleet by myself... and I am the only member of it. HA

Anyway, I was thinking myabe once a become a Rear Admiral I might be able to do this solo. Was wondering what others thought?

    You don't actually need to be in a Fleet to do a Fleet Action. You can just enter it and there will be many other people also doing it. If you're referring to the STFs, you really do need teammates for that, though they don't need to be Fleetmates. We did Infected with only 4 of us and it was incredibly difficult. No one could do those solo.

    You do not need to be in a Fleet to do a Fleet Action. Just enter the zone and play.

    The only reason you were able to do fleet action by yourself is because they changed it so you play by rank and now your lucky to find anyone in them at all. Hope they fix this soon, really liked doing do the fleet actions all of them. I haven't heard (Read) anywhere that they were going to fix it. If you have heard post it here, please.

    Duh, I should have remembered I can "solo" in fleet actions after doing starbase 24 several times. I guess what I was really wondering is if anyone has done STF solo yet... apparently no one has, and its really difficult :(

    Solo end game content? LOL, that's funny. No, you cannot solo the STF's. You can't even enter them without a fleet/team/group.

    It's designed to be the most difficult thing in the game, and something which forces people to team-up to do. One big complaint about STO has always been that there's no reason to team with others. STFs were Cryptic's response to that.

    Fleet Actions are impossible to do by yourself. I've tried Breaking the Planet which was okay until you get to the artillery spotters part then it becomes unbeatable solo. I've also tried Crystalline Entity solo and that was really futile. I just spent a good 2 hours trying to finish the CE again, there was 1 instance and usually about 4 ppl trying to destroy it. We never made it below 80% because of course, 1 person who doesn't know what to do, screws it up for everyone.

    actually you CAN enter STF's without a team and without anybody in the instance.
    Beating them? pretty much impossible.

    I played the Laurentian fleet action: Repel Klingon front last night... last almost a good hour and half. At first we only had three ships, and that was fine... then it got harder LOL. Thankfully more people joined and we finished the end of the fleet action... somehow. Alltogether I think in the end we had 6 or 7 of us only.
