Thread: New CM/Rifleman needs advice on Soloing Krayts?

My post was in relation to CM, yours in relation to Rifleman.
I guess the title where he listed rifleman in his template confused me
Krayts have a KD attack, and with riflemans uber defences mods... o wait, they have none, you will rip apart your own mind while trying to heal the 300-900 Dmg attacks it does with a full suit of armor.
Get a mind buff. Eat some ahrisa. Dragons hit me for like 100-200 tops w/ 90% kenetic on. Synthsteak helps too.
Not to mention, 1/6 Shots usually hit mind, and it attacks at a 1.5-2.0 speed
Get speed capped - it's worth it.
, so therefor as a Rifleman alone, without any other skills, your screwed.
I wish you played on Bloodfin - I would let you watch me do it.

I killed krayts solo with MTK/ cm 4404, with master rilfes it would be just as easy, just keep it itim, us 85% base or better armor, through a mind stack of poisins on the krayt and use head shot 3
Try doing it, Rifleman has NO defences, and you can get KD'd very easily. Dont speculate and say it is just as easy, yet you have never tried it.

i'm a rifleman now, and have you ever seen the defenses of MTk, they are just as poor, the bonus rifleman has is alot more damage in the same time frame. And if you keep it intim, it won't do any amount of damage.

You can't tell me that melee mitigation 3 doesn't make it a whole lot easier to kill krayts, not to mention the combat equilibrium, def vs kd, dizzy, etc. Master Rifleman have no defense vs kd, and next to no defense vs dizzy. And aside from that thakitillo is completely useless against giants and ancients. Im sure it helps a lot to have novice brawler for intimidate, but to say that Rifleman and TK masters have almost the same defense against krayts is crazy. If I don't have a tanker, i just stick to canyon and juvenilles. I soloed an ancient one time hiding in a rebel base, lol. It took me an hour with my best CM stuff. I did get some nice tissues, but it wasn't worth my time.
only way l'd see soloing an ancient to be time effective would be like a commando/cm build lol. And RUN!!
