Is this even possible any more?I remeber goin out with huge groups in the old days and doin it but not sure any more. I hopeto one dayorginize a guild hunt to take a krayt down unbuffed but I heard that the devs up the stats on them to deal with Def. Stackers.

part of the CU will be rebalancing creatures tothe new combat. Because they are getting rid of stacking as we know it and most likely nerfing buffs they will also make it possable to kill things under the new system. Therefor , if it's not possable now (not sure if it is or not) then it will be soon.

Krayts cannot and will not be made killable without buffs.

if you have alarge group you can do it unbuffed, just be prepared to die a few times. becasue youcant tank without buffs, take turns being thepunching bag.and it helps to have have a doc or two.... or five.

/concealshot will do it. But it will take you a while.
But properly fighting it would be difficult. It is probably possible with some good tanks(I know some TKM/MD players that tank krayts with no armor so I'm guessing they could do it with armor and no buffs), great healers,some damage dealers (Riflemen, Commandos, CMs, etc), and a Squad Leader (for the full group stun/dizzy cure to keep your tanks on their feet and the wound spreading for the CM mind heals). You make sure the krayt stays intimidated and the tanks are constantly healed. Attack the health and use high damage specials when you can (you won't be able to keep up /headshot unbuffed for long so you are probably best off hitting the health as it is the most commonly hit pool with autoattack and it's affected by the burns). Tanks don't do specials excessively (probably just intimidate, possibly with a player dedicated to intimidating but with no armor). And bring plenty of rez packs. Uber dot weapons could probably help a lot.

Then they did not accomplish there mission because Krayts are still solo'd and solo'd often, just as GDKs and NS Elders.

Ofc not, the 'fix' was to up their ham, but that just made it take longer and not more challenging. *Much* more damage might help to counter the buff & armor caused godmode, this worked for super battle droids quite good. However, no point in fiddling there now with the long awaited combat revamp in the works
