My tale is hardly unique, or one that might stand out from any others. I came here to say that I just killed my fifth kraken since Shrouded Spoils dropped, and my first successful solo!
With many posts about how difficult the emergent threats are for solo players, I wanted to encourage you all to not give up! The kraken has beaten me a few times, but with a little perseverance and picking up a few tips on this here forum, I have finally prevailed!
They are doable, if you take the time to learn their simple mechanics you will in time being slaying krakens and sinking skelly ships with ease!
Though this isn't a guide in itself, if any one wishes to share their tips on beating any of the emergent threats, I would love to read them.
Please keep at it you solo scallywags....
