To be honest, some will say yes, some will say no...Depends on the Template make up, but in reality, if they can they aren't relying mainly on their current Commando skills (being nose to nose with Krayt Dragon doesn't go over to well for us)...

And I always caution folks before listing their "solo'able" lists as it can sometimes come across to others as "if they can do that solo, then they must be over-powered and we shouldn't listen to their complaints of being 'broken'"...Really, if the game was working right, NOBODY should be able to solo a Krayt Dragon or do the Corvette on their own...Post-CU, it's very unlikely anyone will be able to solo either of these if testing goes properly...

nope never....the corvette that is...

the only people I know who can solo the vette are jedi (saberblock...) and fencers (dodge+cob)...and they solo it by running past all the npc's and only attacking one if you really need to (assasination mission). they are the only ones that can avoid getting shot enough to make it through alive.

I've been up to the vette several times when my mate was doing powerplant runs as a fencer...I just stayed close to the pods and took out single npc's hoping for some nice loot

I am a Master commando/TKM/medic and I can solo the Vette. But not by killing everything. The key is agro management and there is a trick to it that i am not sharing.

With my current template on my main (Master Rifle / Master Swords / TKA 0004 / Medic 0040) I can stand toe to toe with:

Nightsister Elder

Giant Canyon Krayt

Dark Jedi Knight

Dark Jedi Master

Add in my Squad Leader alt, I can solo everything in the game even FASTER (elders in about 4 minutes, krayts in about 5 or so)...But is that really soloing it?

Probably not.

Short answer to your question "Can a Commando solo a krayt?"......A Juvie maybe. Regular Canyon Krayt, Giant, Ancient? No way. Unless you count lighting him on fire, then running away on a speeder and rinsing/repeating as necessary. But, most likely someone will come along and wipe it out.

Depends on what your idea of soloing the Vette is as well...Does soloing it mean running from the beginning room, looting an AV21 powerplant then running out (if you make it past the SBD's), then just about any template can do it (80/80/80 - 90 base comp, 2700 buffs, ranged mitigation III, food/drink)

Just to add, if you are looking to solo krayts, elders, and GDK'sthe absolute best template is:

Master Swords (speed capped really helps)

Master Brawler (intimidate2 for the win)

Doctor 4000 - (to cure the disease from GDK's)

A speed capped Master Swords using an average damage sliced Acklay PH will take down an elder in no time. Faster than I can with my rifleman.

solo no, not as a pure commando, with medic support so all you have to do his concentrate on shooting? Heck yea! as a master commando/rifleman, as long as I have a Master medic healing me, I run riot through the corvette, killing everything in my path, taking breaks for the muon downers.

I too am a commando/tkm, and have been known to solo specific vette missions. I would say the ones i usually complete, however, are probably luck, and could be done no matter what template i was. Usually, i prefer specific group numbers- 4 for prisoner release, 6 for destroy, and 10 for assassin.

honestly, though i depend greatly on meditate up there, it Is one of the few places where a commando can effectively emply multiple weapons at a largely successful rate.

soloing an SBD isnt my idea of a good time, but ive done that too. just dont count the hundreds of times i died doing it.

This wouldn't be that over-agro trick where if more than 10 guys are on you no one else joins the fight, would it? I've tried that, but the top floor always kills me before I can pull it off, or something werid happens.

To be quite frank, the Corvette is really screwed up right now and needs a big overhaul. They've made it almost impossible to do for any normal group of players, so the only real way to do it now is by flying through and taking hits while you do everything (usually solo I might add), or FD'ing your way through (which doesn't work as well as it might seem it would... I always ran out of time using that method).

Ah well, kind of ironic, but then again, so is much of this game.
