You mean those days stopped? Why am I always the last person to get a **edit**ing memo around here?!
Besides I kinda liked the FoTM'ers. Made me prouder of being a veteran of the field.

Riflemen outdamage every other profession. Even a master commando with rocket launchers does less dps than a rifleman with a T-21. Against an armored foe, riflemen do more damage than a Jedi. There will always be hoards and hoards of riflemen bandwagoneers. If you want to hunt any high end game like Krayts or kimos, you must be a rifleman.

Seen a post in the Swordman Forums where someone said they did it also.

You also must be buffed and stuffed out of your mind (or for the benefit of your mind rather) and wearing the best armor in the game that an ordinary wookiee couldn't lift up. Ever think that some of these might be one of the reasons we are FoTM and "uber"? Oh, and I've seen TKM's solo krayts so your last sentence is false...although, why in the hell anone would actually want the power to solo a krayt is beyond me. They are supposed to be monsters who's power and lethality is regaled across the stars.
And anyone can solo a krayt, really (this needs to be fixed). Just takes a good combo including either Smuggler, Swordsman, TKA, CM, or pretty much anything else if ya know how to do it.

"although, why in the hell anone would actually want the power to solo a krayt is beyond me."
I solo krayts so I can sell the pearls to rich Jedi Knights so I can buy all of the high end items that rich artisans and exploiters can afford. Without my ability to solo krayts, I would have NEVER been able to afford my skill tapes. My two hand accuracy skill tapes, alone costed me 12 million credits. The fact is that selling high-end items is the only way to compete with those crafters and credit exploiters.
You see the same rich people buying all the high-end items over and over again on the trade forums. There is no way that a pure combat player can afford to compete with these guys unless they can kill rare monsters and sell the loot. Even if you were an imperial with an AT-ST doing Mokk missions on Dantooine, it would take you about 4 hours to make 1 million credits. One Armorsmith bragged about how he made 100 million credits in one day by selling high-end composite armor for about 3 million asetto a guild of 30.
While the ability to solo krayt dragons may seem unbalancing, so is the ability to consistantly lose in auctions to super rich elites. I wonder how much I would have to pay for a set of RIS armor. 20 million? 50 million? 100 million?
