I have never timed how long it takes my little group to kill a dragon but i know i dont have the patience for a 45 min fight.


When i go dragon hunting it is at least my main the MCH/Master rifle for the nice mind damage and the pari of 12k ham 60% kinetic pets and my alt doc/CM to keep them healed up and the draogn poison/diseased


But i almost always have another master Riflman with me for the added damage to make the fights go in a reasonable amount of time

I think this can be done with 2 Master riffle men pretty easy ...kinda...
the other riffle in your group doesnt start conceal shotting until you get eaten by ol Krayty-poo... Then while your cloning and driving back, he starts concealshotting... when he dies you take over (hopefully you have meditate 4 so you don need a doc/ entertainer)... So howbout we have someone try this?

Think this is exploiting or just using tactics? ... I think tactics.
I think 2 master rifflemen in one group is a nigh-unstoppable duo in PVE if you both use concealshot.

Krayts aggro from 100m so basically odds are your gonna get bitten in half b4 you kill it, also you have to deal with random health bleeds, and the fact that there are tons of people around the graveyard who will swoop in and steal your kill before you can finish it off. Night sister elders solo? yes, its not too hard, but a krayt? thats very hard and isnt worth the damage to your t21. Your t21 goes down about 100 condition or more soloing a krayt and 30-50 for an elder.

and this bleed seems to be very rare, or just not terribly common






Guess I'm just lucky then.... every single time I try to take down an elder i get at least 3 or 4 1 point bleeds. Every time.

What do you guys think?


Myself and my guildmate are both Master Rifleman/Master heavy swordman....meditate 4.


We have nice equipment and buff bots doc/dance/musician


How do you think we'll fair against the big three in tandom:


Krayt....not worried


DJM.....a little...we took a couple down with three people...different templates....I think thier resists are quirky


NS Elder...pretty worried.....mean ladies.


Any advice?

groups of master riflemenshould be able to do anything they want in this game- if they work together. On a similar note, so should groups of commandos, or bounty hunters, etc...


I'm not sure if this was ever confirmed, but it's been theorized that a high wound chance on your rifle will cause it to be more likely to trigger a bleed. My rifles all have relatively low wound chance (by choice), and I almost never get an autobleed to kick in...just how I like it.

actually it's aggro range is unclear. I've gotten aggroed at 80m before and I've gotten as close as 50m before getting aggroed. I can /maskscent go /prone and whail /aim;/concealshot withoutdrawing the aggro at around 67-69m usually.Last time I attempted this it wasgoing quite well until some jerk in a x34 speeder drove in front of the krayt and drew it closer towards my position. Being prone and having stored my speederbike I was a nice midnight snack for the krayt. But I've never actually soloed one yet. I've tried a few times, got killed once and just flat out bored the other 2 or 3 times and stopped after only about 10 or 15 minutes.

look down 2posts, i noticed my error on that and did 40min to factor it in...random pool shots will get anywhere from 50-60% landing on health, it's never a 33%/33%/33% spread.

I've tried 3 or 4 times to kill a krayt solo with conceal. Either they migrate out of range and the process of getting up and getting back into range draws aggro or their random wandering around draws them too close, or a random bleed causes aggro every time. I'll keep trying. On a different note, I can do the dark jedis from the imperial prison easier. They seem to sit still a lot more... Only thing to worry about on them is the random bleed, but at least you see the random bleed and have time to get up and jump on the speeder before you're jumped. Good luck with the krayts.


Cheers,
