Soloing Iron Throne on Tactician
So I recently managed to solo The Iron throne on Tactician and managed to both save all the hostages , Omelium and The Duke.

I haven’t seen any videos of others pulling it off, was wondering if I am the first to do it ? Felt very satisfying

Edit : here is the video

If there is no acheiv for it then it's not even worth discussing. An acheiv would also tell you how many people have it.

That's honestly impressive if true, I can't think of a way to get to Omelium in under three turns myself. And that's with the rest of my party splitting off to free everyone else, going Solo sounds impossible.

There might be some way to exploit a lot of misty steps/similar teleportations. But even with that and haste potions I have a hard time imagining one character can tap all those levers fast enough, and even moreso the npcs get out safely with no support because you're busy being a lever goblin.

I am making a video now then I may be the first to pull it off . I think I am the first to create a Terminator Bard as well

Yeah, without the video I don't think anyone's going to believe you, and your 'bard terminator' would have nothing to do with making this achievement doable. The fighting in the iron throne is easy and/or avoidable, the physical travel you'd need I really don't think is.

Good Job. Babysitting helpless NPCs with a time limit, no thank you. There is not even a reward as far as i know.

Levers can be activated with spells like magic missile so having to manually pull one is quite rare.

That's using up a whole action that could have been a dash, or with a quickened cast a bonus action that could have been a misty step

Best I can theorize is going half-illithid for fly and Mind sanctuary, downing a speed potion, and not having Mizora's BS slowing down Ravenguard's rescue. Have to be at least partially Fighter for Action Surge, and have a good Slight of Hand to pick the locks for Omelium and that one human strapped to a table.

No idea how you're keeping the 10 or so Sahagin from killing the escapees running by, you don't even have the time to throw a CC on them.

Oh the build has Everything to do with it. I also terminated Raphael solo on tactician as well as all his minions in 3 rounds . Ansur 1 Round. Laroikan 1 round . I will make videos of each fight and make a large thread about it

No potions or exploits

Don't really have to push levers though. You can use ranged attacks to activate them as well.

It's better to have pets do it so you don't waste a turn especially on tact.
