Can you solo Safi'Jiiva siege? Never did it but no one ever joins and there's none available

[HekiReki]

Are the rewards not good?

[mom's spaghetti]

you need to join a safi session with ideally 16 people doing it for the best rewards

Is one of the best designs and fight in my humble opinion,the final supernova is the best in game but his armor and weapons isn't meta so people doesn't do....

[Smaugi]

The sessions you see are connected to your download region , so you will have to change that one to see more.
And while safi is solo'able it takes alot of time especially if you don't know the monster.
But the rewards are worth it.

Safi armor and ESPECIALLY WEAPONS ARE meta , they are the best for most weapons pre fatalis.

If you just want a single clear for the sake of completion, they yes, I believe it is possible. If you want to be able to farm it for gear, then no. That would be a nightmare.

Sorry for my english.

I could agree,specially in element build,but everyone use fatalis gear,nothing can compare in decorations slots and QOL.

If you want to do the siege with others you must join a room that's labelled for it (usually they won't join otherwise).

You can solo him but it's not worth your time because Capcom didn't make his energy scale, only his HP, so it still takes forever.

Safi's weapons fell out of favour outside of a few specific ones like greatsword for frostcraft build. However his armour is still BIS for elemental builds... assuming you are willing to give up the significant protection fatty armour offers.

Yes, it can be done solo, however it's a pain in the ass and not worth your time due to how the rewards gimmick works.

That said, before you claim the rewards, remember to always equip the kind of weapon you want to get, because there's a couple of guarantees when you do so in the last 3 or 2 reward slots. (equip lance to get lances, equip hammer to get hammer, etc etc)

The sad truth is that Fatty gear QoL is just too high and Velkhana gamma is the king of damage for almost every weapon outside of SA and IG, Capcom simply can't into balance, however Safi has some niche (very niche) use here and there because its set bonus is the only way to remove the elemental limiter.

Why SA or IG? Those are raw-focused weapons.
If you're referring to Fatty + Velk boots above, you should be referring to DB or bow.

Or do you mean frostcraft set? But frostcraft set isn't BIS for longsword unless you're playing against monsters that let you trigger iai slash consistently (and even then, i think it's only relevant for speedrunners). Looking at speedruns, it does not seem like a popular build.

I also wouldn't really use frostcraft for HBG... don't see how it can be more relevant than your standard special scope spread 3s. Claw HBG is a meme build.

IIRC, I think full safi db beats FC db on quite a few matchups, with some notable exceptions (rajang, furjang are obviously better to fight with FC DB)

Frostcraft Gunlance also doesn't seem like BIS. You can't have both artillery secret and frostcraft, so it would require you to use slaplance, which in MR is not the meta option. Workable, but not BIS.

Frostcraft Lance also feels very iffy, since Lance relies so much on Offensive Guard and counterplay, and doesn't have any strong one-hit wonders. It also takes forever to sheath even with QS3. I am looking at speedrunner videos and can't find anyone using it.

Frostcraft Bow can work with Dragon Piercer builds... but that's another meme build.

Frostcraft LBG... I don't know. Can't find any speedrunners using it.

Frostcraft Charge Blade just isn't gonna work out since you need to spend too much time setting up the phials which depletes frostcraft gauge.

So it's not true that frostcraft set is BIS for all except SA and IG. At the minimum it's questionable for LS and DB and definitely not BIS for HBG, LBG, Bow, Lance, Charge Blade and Gunlance. In fact it's only definitely BIS for GS, SnS, Hammer. That's only 3 weapons!

(I am using speedruns as the bar because let's face it, for the average player, frostcraft isn't even in consideration, no pug will run a frostcraft hammer)

i honestly wouldn't even recommend Safi for elemental weapons.

it's too time-consuming (gimmicky rewards system on top of RNG) unless you are in a full lobby and can reliable clear.
