hmmm. i tried also as MRM and MD, and i got only 2-3 shots off before he agroed, me and then began to hit me for very high damage. even with top armor, i dont see how a RM can tank it. oh and to the guy who said 1k damage a sec - i dont think so - even speed capped. he has medium armor if not heavie and high 80% around resists. so it takes a good few minuts.
so either do the "run away every bleed and wait" or just get a TK to tank for you. you will be killing more GDK this way
It's very possible, I was killing them before I dropped riflewoman for dancer. I just ate a bunch of ahrisa and brandy, and went at it, I healed whatever health/action damage he did, and the mind damage was regenerated. If I took up brawler for intimidate, it would only make it easier, hehe.

I was lucky last night and found a spawn that spawned one right after another. I managed to take down 4 last night before my cure disease packs ran out and my mind got rocked 
. You'll be cureing disease about every 10 secs so lol so make sure u have some pulled out of a crate ;o. Also these things intimidate like crazy which makes u kill it ALOT slower.. so if ur doc its really important to keep these states off you. im only 4040 doc and i manage to keep alive pretty easily. Rifleman can do about 1k DPS on these unintimdated which makes for a pretty fast kill (i was using DMG sliced heavy t-21, 232-540 7.4 or something) Honestly no need for concel shot if you know what ur doing... who wants to wait 500 hours to kill GDK anyways

Am I missing something here? Are they really only 80k HAM? If so, what are their resists energy? I have never seen one, but 80k HAM is pretty weak and I can't see how it would be very hard at all actually.

Any master rifleman that is buffed, armoredand using food/drink can solo GDKS and that is W/O doc. Like someone mentioned already the disease only effects your unbuffed stats, if you have your buffs and brandy/arisha(sp) your fine. I dont even worry about it 2 minutes after your diseased your black barred as far as you can be and dont really take to much damage as A GDK doesnt hit that hard. Its not worth the timeor mind healing the diseaseor states if your a doc because the minute you do theGDK pins them right back on you Don't wast your time with conceal shot simply get in range and start shooting A GDK doesn't KD the rest of the Kimo family does (they do stick every other state though). I know this isnt very "tactics" oriented but it works.
Oh and they are over 80k ham.

i use headshots and intimate 1
they are 90 to 98k ham 80% energy medium armor.
they do have all kinds of states attacks and disease but they do not KD/dizzy (giant kimos kd/dizzy)
the disease don't bother me if my buffs are still up. 3 black bars and 1000 bf is common after a few gdks.
most i ever milked from one spawn is 22 gdk

it also helps if you have scout or ranger that way you can maskscent doesnt work well at low levels or if you hit a bleed but it keeps them from aggro soon as you get in range

How do you guys find those GDKs you kill by the way?
I've been looking for them for weeks and yet to see one except the static spawn at kimo town.
Do you use rangers to track or justride aroundthe volcano (i've heard they spawn around the volcano) until you hit one?
There is often a spawn to the West of Stronghold of Bane.
