At the rank 5 missions it is

At the rank 5 missions it is best to get a full 3* set, as you are unable to get to rank 6 without it. It might help for us to know what you have equipped right now so we can further help you out. If you do not have a shadow weapon you are going to have a tough time on JK.

Blah blah blah, TIDAL WAVE!

Since Rank 5 missions is the 2nd stratum of T2, the proper gear would be 3* equipment. They are very doable with 2* items since the difference between 2 and 3* items is hardly noticeable. Simply put you need to get better or find a party to do the missions with.

Actually, the game kinda tells you when you have to upgrade your gear and blocks missions until you do so.
(hall of heroes 'missions')

In theory, you should make 3* right before/after fightning royal jelly wich is at the end of rank 5.

maybe don't solo?

Maybe don't solo? Dying isn't such a big deal, if there's someone to revive you. Otherwise, you end up spending too much energy on reviving.

Replace your Defender with the shield from the Snarbolax boss. It will give you a nice sword damage bonus.

Replace your Honor Blade (which can't be upgraded) with some better sword(s). My detailed sword guide might help.

While you are pondering what better equipment to get, you can work on your skill. Practice charging your Honor Blade. This sword is not great in its regular attacks, but its charge attack is pretty powerful. Practice kiting monsters (where you get them to follow you, before you deliver a charge attack). As you get deeper into the game, much more skill is required. You can't just run up to monsters and hit them until they die; they will kill you first.

well, get it

I dont got a shield from the Snarbolax boss

Well, you're working on 5-x missions, so you're way past the Snarbolax mission. Run the Snarbolax mission a few times, and get that shield, and start upgrading it. Then you'll end up with Barbarous Thorn Shield, as opposed to your current plan, which is to end up with Aegis. The Arsenal forum is littered with threads explaining why BTS is better than Aegis (if you use any swords).

i try to get parties but i just cant get a party

Consider joining a guild, or asking friends to help you. You could even ask people in Haven to help. Asking for help is better than not running these missions.
