Thread: How to solo a faction base?
I'm about to get Master Rifleman. I've been grinding pikets forever and once I get it, I'm all about PvP and the faction grind. I just wanna ask folks how they like to solo a faction based mission. I have a sludge panther as a pet. I was thinking send the pet in, then flushing 2, then bleed the strongest, then pick off the weakest on up.
But I wold love to hear what others are doing. Yeah, I could hook up with a group, but I am kind of a loner by nature.

If you have a GSP or other decent pet you could just send the pet in and spam your AE of choice until everything's dead.
I soloed holocron missions with a rock beetle - tell it to attack so everything aggros on it, then run away while spamming "/tellpet follow" to make the NPCs follow. Eventually most of them will stop and go back so I can kill the ones still following, then go back to the base and do it again. I didn't die very often but I went through tons of petstims.
If you have suppression fire or another knockdown move, you could use that with the dizzy effect from flurry 2 to pull instead of the pet trick.
