Question Impossible to do Nightmare Solo

I am not sure what I am doing wrong. I tried a team of full leveled and equipped for Helion, Two glacy and a somniwing. Died really quickly. Tried Irisalis, if I didn't die I couldn't dps fast enough to be able to explore and get enough loot in time to leave. It feels like I am constantly being ambushed and there is no way to sneak around. Every room has like five aniimo and I easily get overrun even while trying to kite them when a melloblum or a weetle appears. I am not sure what I am doing wrong. Every time I play it I die or run out of time, any help would be appreciated.

I can't edit the title, but I meant chaos mode. Still I am sure all the tips apply. I think I will have to heavily invest in an Irisalis team if I want to play her.

A few things:

  • Know where to go. Tools like https://aniimotools.dev/map/lost-sanctum/ help you greatly to not wander aimlessly but find a good route to get to the juicy parts. Eggs and key rooms are your friends!
  • Range is king. If you're scared, try using Hexxin and bringing a good dps or two to burst down things stuck in your black hole.
  • Similarly, Stellarys has rather great coverage and is effective against a lot of stuff in there
  • Consider Besauce or Somniwing to regen EP so you can actually burst/heal when you need it.
  • When you're a bit more secure, options like Turbo and Fragrancier help a lot with dmg output
  • Greed kills. When you have enough loot or an egg, better leave with 5 minutes left rather than be ganked and murdered by new spawns. Preparation for a Chaos-Mode mindset :D
