Thread: The secret to soloing Krayts
Anyone know? Whats the trick? I've spammed concealled shot on an ancient before untill I killed it but I could only pull it off once. The rest of the ones I tryed the same thing but after about 3 to 5 minutes it aggroed me and i lost my cover? Any help would be appreciated.
finding them is easy on lowca, my problem is this.. I have tried to use conceal shot with my BH marks ( non master ) and they come after me after the first shot, so I am somewhat uncomfortable trying that with somthing that will db me with a quickness

no kidding 
otoh I the secret to soloing krayts is ... not to solo.I know that is not the answer you are looking for but that is also the devs intention. They are end game content and previously they wereveryweak. Now they are just about perfect (with 2 playerswe can take down most and with a full group we can take down the big boys). Their regen is set so that the max damage output of 1 player will mostly be regenned before the next shot from that player - you gain marginal ground.

mobs got smarter...
So how do you solo every one with ease? Do you just use conceal shot? Are you using other specials like root or anything?

Probably has smuggler and pistoleer with rifleman in his temp and roots them to death lol..
Krayts are immune or at least highly resistant and throw off roots and snares almost instantly now. So that can't be it. They also regensomewhere between300-500 damage a sec now...

if this is indeed true i find it very unlikly that someone can solo one without being hit on multiple occasions....
