Looks to be impossible, solo anyway. TheNPC was ranged so root/snare is useless. Can this be done without having any CM or Doc in your template? 34k health, fast regen. Maybe some ruby some so I can usestims quicker? This guy was tougher than ancient krayts/kimos, and I can solo them atleast.

well it may be that there will be some incredably uber npc's out there, but that's no suprise really. There's uber players who play probably alot more than you, so sony won't hand them loot on a plate will they.

Besides I don't want to win every single npc mission I get. Isn't the definition of challange about chance of failure. Of course failure more often than not mutates challange to unabalnce...

Ask those jedi about that

From the patch notes it HAS to be done solo....I understand why...but it pretty much means death for me if I pick one of these guys (but I'm gonna try anyhow!)

Well, there's still good armour, good weapons. And a good knowladge of combat as a BH to consider.

Dont forget things like blind will make the npc's damage on you less, knocking him down and getting a crit hit will ensure a very nasty shot, startle will also ensure a few shots do more damage on him.

And duelist stance etc etc.

Just keep trying learning from each npc mark found.

Remember, good gear, good buffs, good tactics.

You'll get there.

These new bosses are meant to be tough, but I just hope these rumours of the rewards not being "rewarding" are soon found not to be true *crosses fingers*.

I managed to get a boss that was 81 or 82 toa little less thanhalf health before he incapped me, and I have no cm/doc or any healing aside from stimsfor that matter. I'm not sure that it can be done, but my gut says that you can, especially with a little luck. I'm master rifleman, master BH btw.

I have no idea if it might be possible, but perhaps you could have a cm or doc friend heal you while fighting. Might not let themheal you, but would be worth a shot.

I'm sure it can be done. If I can solo twenty five lvl 86 Krayts a day, then I know I can take down one "boss" lvl 82.

Next time I'll bring along some ruby that will allow me to use stims more quickly and get buffed. I know about blind and kd and all that other stuff....lol so that wasn't the problem. His health just out-lasted mine. Like I said he had 35k HAMor somewhere near that. I justwasn't prepared for that fight.

StylerNaku,

Maybe you misunderstood. This wasn't your average lvl 82. He had 34k HAM. I can spam specials all day since my weapon SAC is capped. The problem is without quick healing capabilities you're screwed. I'm not a respec BH or a noob. I'll need some ruby to lower the timer on stimpacks. I'd advise anyone else to do that as well, if they're not the ever so popular CM/Doc hybrid.

Don't forget that with a pair of ranged cyber-arms you could extend your range by 15m. Now, even if that NPC were using a rifle, you'd be out of range if you kept up roots and snares. You'd have to with this approach, but it could mean that you don't end up taking all that damage over time, just a few bursts of damage when he sometimes gets in range on you.

Stim-D's and ruby will pull you through those moments when he's on you.
