Behold the Ancient krayt dragon
I took these awesom screenshots last night. They have 95% resists to all and I did about 99% of the damage and you can tell because his other ham bars were practically untouched. 3 Ancient spawns came last night (which is extremely rare) and if you guys ever see one in your lifetime you will enjoy it, as it is the only time we are truely useful......

I took out an ancient krayt dragon yesterday as well. My template is master pistoleer / master marksman / commando 0040 / smuggler 0040 / medic 0200 so the flamer is the only way I can take one down.

I wear 80% kenetic composite. I use a flamer that is 640/1160 5.1 speed. So while the damage per second isn't that great it lands hella burns (the highest I have seen is 4500/tick). Basically I keep a good burn going and just try tostay alive. I did have to use a pixie once in the beginning. He landed a kd, dizzy, bleed, blind, and intimidate all at once and took my ham almost all the way down before I could get up. But after that it was just a matter of spamming flamesingle2 and standing up /healing occasionally. Krayt's are time consuming but not all that challenging.

Actually, we're ok against another beastie too - the Gorax. Me and another TKM tanked it, with some others shooting from range. At the end of the day, the flame DOT was very useful though - I basically switched to flamer and reapplied the DOT each time it wore off. A TKM/Master Commando could solo one buffed, with high kinetic resists.

Just out of curiosity, did you use any pistoleer skills as well? Or do you simply need to make use of skills like intimidate? My template is almost exactly the same as yours, so I'd be interested to know.

I am a Master Commando/Master Rifleman, I used my Burns and spammed strafe2 while it was burning. The real reason I was using strafe was not to damage it, but to outdamage the other players attacking it.
About 99% of the damage was from my Flamer though ![]()

I normally don't use pistol skills against krayt's, with the exception of Juveniles (a DX2 works pretty good against them). My pistols skills are used in pvp (I know stop laughing).
