    Judging by the fact you are the 38th/43rd gamer on here to complete the game, I'm guessing you got this done...

    Congratulations!!!

    Lol yeah. Thanks! For anybody that needs help on soloing this I suggest waiting for the bugs to get halfway down the tunnels, and then running up to them so that they target you, and once they have targeted you, run to the center of the room next to the people that you are protecting. For some reason that worked for me as all remaining enemies that came into the room kept targeting me and not the NPCs. Hope this helps somebody!

    It's worth noting, also, that you can semi-rig this one. Additional waves do not spawn until the Troll-type enemy at the very end of each wave is killed, with two Trolls present at all times beyond the first wave. So you can simply kill everything in the first wave except the Troll (which has several times as much HP as everything else), and then freely focus on the remaining respawning wave (including second Troll) from there on out.

    Black Mage's AoEs, such as Stonega, easily kill entire clusters in one go.

    Also, yes, congratulations on the completion! smile
