Why is it that when you go solo, you lose any heat you had accumulated throughout the level? I was with a friend at the jelly palace and didn't want to do JK, so I went solo so he could invite friends to help him out. And I lost all my heat. Why is this in place?

Heat isn't added to your gear

Heat isn't added to your gear unless you reach the elevator. Leaving the stage means leaving your Heat behind.

Going Solo is leaving the old stage.

A technicality.

Which is annoying if you go solo because you've landed up in a PUG where they're not playing well, or wasting time or whatever is annoying you. You shouldn't be penalized for leaving a bad PUG.

I think they did that to help stop possible heat leveling related exploits. Note I said HELP.

Hmm

You really should be able to keep your heat when going solo. Sometimes I'll want to go solo at an elevator to wait for an arena (whereas the rest of the team thinks a T3 Fiend Shock Arena is a bad idea...) So I end up having to decide between keeping my current heat or passing up the arena.

I think if you ask your leader to kick you it might not steal your heat, I'm not even 50% sure, actually the last time I tried that I didn't get heat, but I'm not sure if it was because I was already on the elevator or not.

Yeah, I tried that before too, getting kicked = lose all heat.

Though it's kinda funny to kick someone at the end of a level when they honestly try to use the team as a humman heat amp. Standing back and reviving people for heat does not count as suppourt fire, seriously.
