Previously was the Hunter Solo method up on the safe spot, but after messing around I found it can also be done with a Titan much faster. The only downside is that there's more specific gear requirements, but if you do have the setup it is much faster to do.

Speed-wise this will be a bit slower than a group method, but there's less personally responsibility than the previous solo method. This is essentially the same as the group method but allowing you to do it solo provided you have the right setup.
First you need to clear up to the boss on a Defender Titan. It's relatively simple if you play it safe, I have a solo run through here on Hunter for reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SwwgV8iTDf8
Once you get to the boss, the following requirements are needed:
-Defender Titan (spec into Weapons of Light and Illuminated)
-Void High Impact Sniper (1000 Yard Stare, LDR, Eirene)
-Ability to hold/shoot 17 Sniper Rounds (this can be through +Sniper/Special ammo on gear, or Triple Tap bonus round - the biggest help will be +Special Ammo from Exotics)
-Dragon's Breath
Helpful but not exactly needed:
-Triple Tap / Casket Mag on Sniper
The strategy is exactly the same as the group method but now you're able to do it solo. You clear the adds, build up super/collect ammo, and once the boss is about to spawn you run to the back and use your bubble on the lower ledge. Hop up to the top ledge and stand in there for full Weapons of Light up time, and fire at the boss to get him low enough. once he is low enough, run around the side and suicide at the boss's feet with Dragon's Breath. The boss will die after you die with 1-2 sec left on the wipe timer, and you can spawn up and collect the loot and repeat.
How many exact shots you need to hit on the boss with Weapons of Light + Illuminated are:
-15 Sniper Precision Shots
-2 Sniper Body Shot
-3-4 Primary Shots (there's a little room for error with this, you can experiment with what works best)
Note: These are the same amount of shots you can use to hit in a group too, ideally you'd split them up.
To reiterate again: [b]Farming will still end up being faster in a group than doing it solo. However if you wish to do it solo and have the setup for it, this will be the faster and most efficient way for it. [/b] You can get 20-30 runs an hour doing it this way solo, which is quite a step up from the ~10 or so on the Nightstalker hunter. Groups can run 40-50 and hour from what I've heard, so while it's less efficient this closes the gap quite a bit.
Hopefully this is helpful to some - any questions feel free to ask!
