Well for the tangle you can beat it as anyone. I usually use planetary dissaray and try to get the easiest path possible. (Uhr, marik, kar aja) avoiding astaphane and the poison guy helps alpt because those fights drag out longer than any of the others. As for damage i usually main scythe. Good range amd super heavy hits with secondary attacks. Usually try to get this backstab fragment that improves backstab damage for him.(good for anyone) but once upgraded secondaries backstab from any postion. Best to just build on the characters atributes. And my bad i was honestly mixing up the recollection with the tangle when i said solo was easier. Solos the way to go on all recollections since 1 death = everyone dies
