I've Solo'd well over 100 gorax with MCM/MPistoleer, Doc x/x/x/4 and FS ranged speed.

Also, Katarn and all Krayts, even the Ancient Krayt, got pics of that on the pistol forum.

All due to the mighty power of Improved Electrolyte Drain.

template : mcm / mbh / rifleman 4 0 0 0 ( any elite ranged with mcm will be just fine though )

equipment : use sac powerups on your weapon , a sac of approx 70 to 75 after powerup should allow you to spam specials .

any armor with 5500 or greater kinetic protection is adequate

no food or buffs are required but it helps having instant stimpacks > 1000 power .

creatures you can solo : gorax , juvi , canyon and ancient krayts .

method of soloing : attack creature from maximum range with your most powerfull specials ( avoid using any specials with dots , such as torso shot becuase dots break paraylyse . once the creature is within melle range apply paralyse . then apply apply thyroid rupture ( this reduces attack speed by 40% ) , then apply electrolyte drain . at this point you should get out of melle range , you might take a hit or 2 from the creature but they raen't powerfull enough to kill you in 2 hits . electrolyte drain is a amazing snare move , the creature will not be able to catch you and you can keep kiting it , using you rmost powerfull specials . if you have taken damage initially heal with instant stimpack / bacta shot or bacta spray ( avoid using bacta toss because the animation makes you stop running and allows the creature to get close to you . if your health is in good shape apply fire and poison , both these dots aren't very powerfull but they do just about enough damage to neutralize the regen of the creature . applying posion and fire also lock your toon so be prepared to get hit once or twice if the creature manages to get close .

its very important that you kite the creature in a circular pattern , if you just kite in a straight line the creature will go into retreat mode if you drag it too far from its original spawn location .

other tips and hints : all the creatures i mentioned above use aoe attacks , so if you can drag the creature in the path of other mobs they will also start attacking it which will help you kill your target quicker . although not essential having parawan nutricake and ruby bliel on your toolbar is helpfull in emergencies ( parawan cake allows you to burst run without any delay , ruby bliell reduces the delay between stimpacks by half / 30 seconds . use your knockdowns wisely they are great if you messed up and the creature gets too close to you .

Well I tried a lvl 84 Nightsister, I put up a good fight, but eventually lost. however, I am extremely unexperienced in CM, so I wasn't using the best tactics. I later tried some lvl 77 nighsisters, and defeated them easily. Since i'm MBH/MCM I don't do a great damage with my pistol so its imperative that I have food.

My strategy now is fill up on bofa treat, blob candy, and spiced tea. I use my laser rifle to pick the nightsister off from a group and then run a little ways. Most of the time I can pull just one, but someone multiples follow. Once the NS gets within 10m, I use paralyze, and I switch to my scatter pistol, and then I take crispic (increased ranged accuracy), and vesparagine (melee defense). I then use paralyze, debuff, paralyze, debuff, paralyze, DoT, and start using my pistol. I then use parlyze to reapply debuffs and give myself time to heal. I'm also grouped with a 110 Med droid. I have pistols 0001, so I use stopping shot, to get away a little and be able tofire my pistolat a more comfortable range.

The biggest problem I had was my mind running down, action regen was bascially a non-issue.
