now that elders can use their force powers again im just wondering if there's anyway to solo them without a tank or with any shot other then conceal shot.

anybody soloed them lately and can offer some tips?

Conceal shot from 64 m away. The second you see a bleed on her, hop on your bike and get the hell out of there. Wait a few minutes to let the bleed wear off and shoot her again.

im actually looking for a way that takes less then 30 mins per kill (if there is such way that is)

A friend of mine uses the ConcealShot tactic, except the Elders never start bleeding... ever! This is pretty strange, since they do when I use concealshot, has anyone heard of something similar?

even council shot doesn't work for me. they always notice it, and there is always a bunch of spell weavers or protectors around them. and as soon as they notice you its either u jump on the bike and fly away or stay and get killed in less than two minutes.

yes, i used to be able to do this. but it stopped working with the powers patch. conceal for about 10 shots then peace out...conceal for 10 peace out...etc. but now at about 1/4 ham gone it always starts to bleed and well then it gets abit harder.


who said 30min ? it takes me (speed capped) 10-15min to kill an elder with conceal shot...about 5-10 with just headshot.

pulling a single ns is easy, just rotate round till your target is the nearst when you are at max weapon distance the hit 1x hs and fall back, I have sucessfully kited elders the trick is to run them out to the point where they want to peace and return to their spawn point, it can be done.

Taking cover has no effect on your ability to successfully conceal shot a MOB. The advantage that taking cover gives you is increased ranged defense, which is only useful against ranged opponents when they are actually attacking you.


Regarding elders, I cannot solo headshot them now that they have their force powers back. It's actually kind of nice having to group up in order to take on some of the hardest mobs in the game.
