Hmm... question's in the title.

The only way that I can ever see that happening is if you stack your bleeds and use the smugler skill feign death. But even this tactic has a slim chance of working because krayts can one hit incap you. If you just use Blademaster skills you wouldn't have a chance.

And lets just say you lived to hit the Krayt with Health Hit 1 or 2 and feigned death..there is still the possibility that the dragon's bleeding will stop before it falls.

With a master doctor buff and some spice/food and a 70 % resist armor I think you can take a number of hits even from a krayt.

Use master doc buffs, 70% ubese, food and/or spice, preferably a mind buff from a master dancer as well - and I can easily see you being able to kill a Kryat. Especially if you have decent med skills (stim D ability).

but the real question is: would it be practical?

No, i'd call it the definite certainty that the bleeding will stop before it falls.


I dunno, i'm pretty sure that taking on a krayt in straight-up melee combat, completely solo (no pets, or someone to distract it if you get incapped so it doesn't eat you), is a death wish, regardless of buffs, armor, or COB.


But if someone proves me wrong, post screenies

Now that would be worth seeing. I'm half tempted to try and make a melee only character just to try and do it. (Ok not really THAT tempted, but if I had CSR powers I'd try it. )


I suspect it would be possibleif you firstget 2k+ buffs across all stats by a master doc, after that go and get secondary mind stat boosts from an entertainer. Thenpowerboost anduse +focus foods so specials take no mind or +willpower so you regen your mind as fast as possible and finallyputting on your suit of 80%+ composite.


An idea would be to spec some heavy swordsman into the template so you could use powerhammer mind bleeds, then switch to a fencing weapon for the defences.


It would probabley take a lot of tries but it would be something to be proud of if you managed it.


I doubt very much someone whohasonly Blademaster skills could solo a krayt. I'm meaning solo as in no pets, at-st etc. to tank, if you include MCH and 3 AT-STs as solo I'm faily sure a krayt wouldn't provide too much trouble.

hmm ya and with the new patch, even if the bleeds stuck it would only take him to 1hp and then theres still a possibilities it could kill you when you get up to finish it.

How about master brawler/ Blademaster? KD it, double bleed, then run away, then repeat it again.

Don't think Krayts can be KD'd... :/

Well if it weren't for the mind disease from a Giant dune Kimo I had once almost taken one down solo with Doc Buffs and food drink and Spice... If I had Master Dancer/Musician Buffs I probably could have killed it solo.


Does this mean I could take a Krayt? Possibly... Stay in CoB Lunge2 Warcry2 (both till they work) then if your lucky you have 2 free hits while it's knocked down to spam 1hbodyhit2 after Bleed1-2, intimidate then Blind... Re CoB before it gets up from being Warcry'd. Heal self once for good measure, if you get hit in the head imediatly (if you are a Zabrak) Equilibrium, Then Vitalize... Then spam Lunge2 and Warcry2 again till they stick and repeat.


If you have good armor, you'll only be getting hit for 200 or so when you do get hit...easily healable


And you shouldn't get hit much IF YOU REMEMBER TO COB


I might try it without armor and with my Bio Clothing, I'd bet I'd get hit for less damage over time with the +12 I have to Melee Defence.


While Bleeding and Feign Deathing might work.... it's a litte annoying that a ferocious carnivorous creature that is bleeding out doesn't go ahead and eat the "dead" body infront of it.


Anyway at Master Fencer/Master Brawler/TKA 1113/ Medic, I'd bet I could do it if I had a full set of buffs and **edit** good StimB's


Of course I would let my GSP get incapped while I was trying to Knockdown Warcry it... but I'm just a stinker like that.
