Not impossible, but not soloable either.

I'm an MBH/Master Rifleman, so your mileage may vary.

that's not true at all.

I solo 32k ham boss marks all the time no prob...it just takes patience and decent equipment.

my armor has over 8k energy resists and my gun does 1196 damage.

I am mbh/mrifle/cm4000. It just takes a little while and you absolutely have to maintain a bleed on these guys to negate their health regen. I really am growing to hate the 32k boss mobs though because i could probably grind 3 regular missions in the time it takes to do 1 32k boss mission, and i have yet to get any good loot off a 32k boss

Took down a lvl 82 boss mark today. Had to change my tactics a bit cause he liked doing the retreat bug to me. I finally killed him and all he had was a jar of bugs.

Yea, the ole "Jar of Bugs" from an Elite Boss, got to love that!

The toughest one I have had was a 38k Health and had Rifle skills. Not fun. Incapped me twice before I figured out a great way to help myself. The Post-CU world is not about Accuracy or Defense and is not about DPS or Max Damage, it is all about healing.

The power to heal is the power to win.

I dropped all my drinks, except ruby bile and I modified my Stim Pack Macro to include the following

• ui action toolbarslot 13 (Stim Pack)


• pause 2


• ui action toolbarslot 15 (Ruby Pile)

By switching to this, I can heal myself constantly up to 6 times before my stomach is full. I then use all the foods to mod my stats:

• +300 Health with +200 Action Regin and +150 Health Regin


• +91 Melee Defense


• +50 Ranged Accuracy


• +50 Dodge


• Pixie (+20% accross the board)

With all that, the 38k Health Elite Bosses are not as much of a threat to me.

Hi all

I have only been a MBH for two months now, i respected after a 4 month break from the game. Last night i encountered one of these fella's and he was too tough for me to take down, i have had no problem in the past with boss marks but this guy was a total crank! I am not complainingit proves that i have much to learn in the art of taking these guys down.

I was contemplating tanking him with my AT-ST however i believe my AT-ST has been nerfed, can anyone confirm this?

Cheers

god guys/gals one of my toons is a MBH/master ranger and he does all these marks they are easy, well they can be done. If by him , then by anyone.

I've killed alot of the Boss marks and some hit you for 500+ of damage, but I have also had some that did 21 and 120 of damage. Not all of them hit hard. I use a droid,it hits for 84-100 of damage and it does help. attack the mark first and then get the droid to attack,then move 90 or 180 degrees from the droid,so the mark hits you and not the droid. Sometimes I find an elite that is just as hard to kill as a Boss.

So you use a droid(costs money to) Then you get to a planet. using your swoop to drive 5k meters+(costs money) You find out your target has moved so you use a seeker droid (costs money) find out hes another 2k away so you drive there(costs money) Finaly you find your target and you eat food and drink (costs money) he hits ya alot damaging your armor(costs money for new or to repair) As well as your durability on your wep drops (again Costs money)

So you figure you just spent about 9k or so just to get to the target to find out he drops you a mando frame wow 3k loot for a 9k trip.

Ok now your like yeh well you just got 31k for the bounty. Yes but add that up its 90k per 3 missions you do but -27k in goods to hunt the targets so you really made 50k +9k in smuggler componets 59k for 3 missions..

Yeah, well when you figure that every now and then, a mission gives you pretty good loot, then it's all worth it. I looted a +7 LS Speed CA, and got 7 million for it on the trade forums. So, a 31k Mission, that takes me on average 15 mins to complete from start to finish, turned into a 7 million credit mission. Not bad. Bottom line is, if everyone is going to complain about the loot being nerfed or that the bosses are harder, then stop doing NPC missions. More loot for me.

Ok. Well it looks like I'll have to change my template then. I'm MBH Master Rifle, and 4xxx CM.

I still don't think it's fair and I don't see the point in making these boss marks tougher. It use to be fun but now I have to grind again and change my skills. Where's the fun in that? I was really happy with my template.

Someone mentioned they were only dropping smuggler tools. Has anyone had anything better drop? Like crystals or BH schematics like they use to?

i've killed plenty of these elite boss marks (30k+ HAM)... never any good loot. usually just bugs

my bh's template: master bounty hunter, enhancer 3000, defender 4400, healer 4000

Well the best one these boss mobs (32-39k ham ) could do to me was reducing my mindpool to 30% .
