However, ifyou want to do Bastion Nymic completely solo, you should do your best to be prepared. You will need tobe at the level cap of 50, and the more Champion Points you have, the better.Stock up on stat boosting meals and healing items, and prepare to use them pretty regularly.
It will likely beimpossible for new playersto solo Bastion Nymic. Focus on leveling up and other aspects of the story, or find a group to help you.
