Wave 1-3: Just kill everything normally, hit anything that goes near the station with a ranged attack, that way they will focus on you instead and ignore going for the station. Do this as soon as new enemies respawn. Don't buy any turrets.
Wave 4 preparation:
3 options here.
1. You can buy 1 shotgun turret for Station 2 and 1 shotgun for Station 3
2. You can buy 2 machine guns on Station 2 and focus defending Station 3 with ranged attacks
3. As mentioned by Weekend Zombi, sometimes you might not have enough cash for the first 2 methods, so just build 1 machine gun in Station 2, and as soon as you can, build another one in later waves, if not just save for the waves 7-10
Wave 4-6:
White robots will start spawning so make sure you draw them away from the station's direction since they can hit it even if they aren't focusing on it.
Wave 7 preparation:
You should have enough money to purchase a shotgun and machine gun for Station 4 and 5. If not, just place a shotgun in each
Wave 7-10:
Pretty much as the rest of the waves, range attack them so they focus on you and ignore the stations, the turrets should do the work for you.
A really easy achievement, I did it solo but it does make it even easier having another Blake in your team focusing on each station.
I did get Solo horde on my 1st try, the 85% health on my 3rd try and No turrets on my 1st try. The last 2 were also done in solo, so it wasn't that bad
If you do it with 2 people, you might not even need placing turrets if each player takes care of 1 station
You can either do this with two players on the Horde map ‘Emerald forest’ with two level 10 Blakes with ‘Stun blades’ with each person defending one station at a time. Below is a solo guide:
For waves 1-3 fight away from the station so it doesn’t accidentally get hit and when you see an enemy running towards the station use Stun blades to aggro them on you. You’ll want to get three flawless waves to get the maximum Lien.
For waves 4-6, place either two machines guns or a machine gun and a shotgun (whichever you can afford, if you can’t restart) on station 2 close to each other. Defend station 3 by drawing enemies away from the station and fighting them on the hill, and trying to draw enemies from station 2 by shooting them.
For waves 7-10, place two shotguns or a shotgun and a machine gun (whichever you can afford) on station 4 and defend station 5. Employ the same tactics as waves 4-6, buying any extra turrets you can afford where they’re needed.
