I have looked everywhere and haven’t seen this question. Can I solo a SF/Respec Mission ? I have done tons of Strike Force, Respec Missions and I know if someone leaves the team the rest of us can continue the mission. But when someone leaves the team everyone else leaves. The SF teams I have been on that disbanded I would also leave and do my regular missions. Now I am wondering if it can be completed solo and if it can will the remaining missions be set for 1 player. I am not asking if you think I am good enough to solo a SF, just if it can be done. I need the Sharkhead SF and that’s a long one and no one wants to do it. I would be just as happy to solo it if possible, let me know if it can be done.

I dont think it is possible to complete a SF on your own. There is usually a set number of people required to start the SF and I do believe that if your team disbands and you have a mission up if you can complete the mission on your own. It will be extreemly tough because usually the mission spawns enemies to at least the minimum amount of teamates allowed for the SF. Also I think I remember doing a SF with a sg mate and the team disbanded and we tried to complete it cause there were only a few mishes left and the contact told me I did not have enough teamates to complete the task. It might be different for each SF though.
What server do you play on? maybe some of the Ampers can help you out in doing the Respec/SF? Have you tried asking for help on the Global Chat Channel?
Thanks to Death Fetish for this cool "siggy"

potentially do-able, but challenging. The mobs themselves may scale a little bit, so that there aren't as many in a mob, but the AV will still be an AV. You'd have to have the right kind of character (probably with help of shivy and maybe even a chem nuke from WB) to take down the AV.
Steps to do such a thing:
get the required numbers to start. (example, Cap SF. 4 to start; you, person A, redshirt person 1 and 2)
Redshirt person 1 and 2 can quit the SF team.
person A must LOG. not quit, but LOG off of that character. The SF will still register 2 people "on the team", and you'll be able to continue on.
Then you, by your lonesome, can smash through the SF. (note: shark SF may not be the best for this, there are 2 AVs in that final room, 1 after the other.. (what's his face, then the eyeball), along with the fountains to throw your shivy to the far winds. The one SF i can semi-easily see being soloed is Silver Mantis, b/c only 1 AV. Cap has Bat'zul and Infernal, shark as mentioned, and Ice Mistrial has the ambush from hell)

Yeah, it's do-able with the previously mentioned caveats. I like to think I know the Shark SF pretty well, and I'd be pretty surprised to see it soloed. Again for the previously stated reasons. There is a trick with the Cap SF that i have heard about (get Bat'Zul to spawn without taking down Infernal; let them battle it out; then take on the significantly spanked survivor), Ice Mistral is actually not as bad as some make it out to be. I almost finished that one solo while my team was being ported to the final room. If you go carefully you can pull it off pretty handily IMHO. SG Mission Computer SF is a fairly easy one. And I have heard also that at least the first two Thorn Tree SF's have been soloed. I wouldnt see why the third couldnt be also.
I say get a friend or three and start one up then go for it! Tell us how you make out. Again, I'd steer clear of the Shark SF solo though. Then again...

The reason I was hoping to solo Sharkhead SF is because I need that badge. I have all the SF badges except Lord Recluse’s and the third Respec mission and Sharkhead. I know Recluse’s SF will be easy there is always someone in our coalition that wants to do it and I think the third Respec will be the same. But no one wants to do the Sharkhead SF. I might try to solo it if I can’t get a team.

Well, I see you are on Pinnacle. I'd jump in and help you if you were on Guardian or Triumph (where I have my toons). You can always give it a shot solo. I'm just thinking it is one of the 'harder to solo' SF's. Good luck with it.
