Ok, for those believing BB can't be solo.
 

Took a few times, as well as trying a few differant things. Lightning is the way to go. It can be done though without using a cheat or sailing through the island or anything.

First pic is from previous attempt, where I forgot to use take cover next to Goliath. Didn't take many pic's shooting forts.

I left Jack a little something to do, like fixing all the holes, haha.

Wow PoinsonElf, Can you be my teacher sometime lol. Thats amazing and you deserve all the Kudos you can get. Congratulations

Very impressive! Great work!

Aye aye, congrats Poison Elf. :)

Well seeing is believing, you proved me wrong mate.

Great job! :)

whoa good job and you cut it very close mate:degen:

Don't think ya can get closer than that, lol. Take cover was just enough to leave a floating hole in the water to fire canon's. Right before this I forgot to hit take cover with around the same amount on hull, and sunk.

Used furry and other approaches, and last bridge would finish ya off.

Any ways, it is possible, that is all. Not as easy as it was before the update though, I will agree with that.

u are a legend man!

Impressive :)

wow your good i tried to do BB solo once it failed

Really very impressive!

wow thats impressive!:pirate2:

Waited until you were level forty? :-) Well, congratulations to you too, anyway!

Here are my screen shots from July 5th. I finally defeated bridges 8 & 9 - as long as I made it past Goliath at the very start, it would just be a normal long-range sailing battle (actually turned out to be easier than a Juggernaut.) This time, I did make it away from Goliath without getting hit...so I ran until it was off compass, turned, used my remaining lightning shots on the masts, then had to get back on the wheel...eight broadside hits later...victory.

I heard it was changed again for svs, made a bit easier. Without having full effect of barrage on the character until you reach 40, canon wouldn't of been near good enough to destroy bridges and ships fast enough.

Couple of characters I did before did it at low levels, before they upgraded the quest. With the rediculous game play now, lag, crashes, cuts, its not worth testing another character on this.
