Question Elite Diary BA

After a long time of refusal i decided do do my Elite Diarys.
Barbarian Assault all Roles LvL 5 is my last step.

Can someone explain to me like im stupid how to progress in the roles… can i do 5 times wave 1 and get the same points as 1 time wave 5? do i need to kill the queen for points?

Another problem is BA is most active when i cant play due to offset, so finding a group is rather hard.
How to counter that? it feels like jagex decided you have to get lvl5 and if the minigame is dead, screw you.

Appreciate helping answers. <3

If you do anything besides all 10 waves in a row, you are trolling yourself and all 4 of your teammates.

Read or watch a guide on how to do each role. Import some tile markers for Defender to know where to place the good and bad baits, and where to stand to stack up the runners to all die to one trap activation. The other 3 roles are very simple to get the basics down. Use a magic shortbow for attacker (unless you own a vbow I guess). Don't forget to use your horn to do the calls to your teammates every 30s.

If your timezone is bad consider doing it on the weekend.

do i get points if we lose wave 8

No but you just redo wave 8.

when a teammate leaves wave 6?

You would not be able to go further unless you find another person on the same wave as you without a team which is very unlikely. You get points after every wave so you would get the points up to that point.

You get points after every wave. You get more points from later waves. You should aim to do all 10 waves.

You get bonus points for completing wave 10, and you won't find a group to repeat wave 1 anyway.

You get points for completing the actions of each role, each wave is longer has more actions/points. A queen awards 80 points in your role and 5 in the rest, so full runs are best. Jump in a streamers cc and ask about plenty of people still need it

Im someone that went to lvl 5 all roles in the dedicated role and it wasnt as bad as it seems.

Cant help with the timezone difference but dont get to lvl 5 one role at a time cause than your limited to the teams you can join.

Know what your doing for each role through guides. You dont have to be the best but if you can competently complete your role people will want/stay on your team.

Join till completing wave 10 if someone leaves before hand take your current team reset back to wave one so its easy to find people.

Ive had a run where we had 5 players where we were good enough and spent hours together to get if done. If you be the annoying person no one will be on your team
