I would bet a swordsman if not would be really close to doing this as well. Power hammers are sick!

i never soloed elders before. tried it, buffed, nice brandy etc... and every elder took bout 2 powerups on my t21 (what isnt uber besides a 32% dmg slice) - so took down two - after each other. only problem: dont let them come too close (wookiee armor is better than no armor, but composite is a dream...)

anyone can solo anything as long as you have patience and a little skill and luck. and as long as you can deal damage to it. commando is probably the best all round solo profession thanks to the motorcycles. just burn the target hop on the bike and ride in circles. with armour and stimpacks its easy. park the bike at 70 meters run up to 18 meters and lay on the burn (nothing is immune to the burn bleed and it is full effect) then run back to the bike healing as you go. so is that overpowered or just smart thinking??

try taking out an elder w/ carbineer or pistoleer or tka. 
tho that's where the powerhammer comes into play for me...elder takes around 20-30minutes...giant krayt w/ scythe takes 'bout an hour. kd/dizzy is a pain but it's doable...can tank a krayt ancient all day long but can't do any damage to it really, not even a rifleman can...commando's the only realistic way to take out an ancient.

spell weavers you're kinda S.O.L. on.
elders are only 25% energy resist (35% for axkhva min(sp?)) so you can concealshot them all day long, make a macro & get something to eat while you..."solo".
