Yes you can solo an elder. It'll easily stick the dizzies on you but since you're Doc you won't have much trouble removing the stats. Speed cap isn't necessary unless you're impatient.

Here is the simple plan:

1: get speed capped. this means have +95 2h speed (can be enhanced melee speed)
2: get a good hammer. 700 and above is ideal, but 600 can work
3: get good armor. composite with at least 80 base (sliced) 35ish stun-see below
4: master brawler, have at least 2,0,4,0 or 4,0,0,0 medic. must be able to heal bleeds and use high power stims/quick heal. must have intimidate 2
5: pull her away so its 1 on 1
6: intimidate2 her. then set in your bleeds
7: headHit3 her. its nice to be able to target 1 pool
8: learn to run and live to fight another day. if she starts beating you, run. I find elders with power hammers and stun batons are hardest.

I usually leave stun baton elders alone when im solo. if you must take them on have 35 stun comp and an anti-decay sliced stun PSG.

hope this helps, if you dont get something ask and ill try to help out.

This is very good technic but I solo elders daily w/o most of this stuff.


1) Speed Capped Swords Decent PH


2) Get her alone, Intimidate her and make sure she is always Intimidated.


3) MindHit2 for the mind bleed bout 5-10 times.


4) HeadHit3 targets 1 pool alwyas nice.


5) repeat steps 2, 3, 4. Also heal when u think you need it


Like i said i kill Elders all the time. Daily and since im on Spring Break on Bria, I have all day to solo em. Just to let you guys know my template, I'm Master Swordsman, Master Architect, 0004 merchant, 4440 artisan, novice medic. I have 445str stim b's. With 40%Stun armor 67-90%Base armor on. My PH is 5.6speed 230-881 (thats with p'up)w/anti-decay kit. I wear a +22 Two-handed Melee Speed Shirt. And thats all i do. Usually I can't solo some of the Elders, like the ones with ph's, LVA's. Now with the stun batons for me its alittle more difficult. I usually have to heal more but otherwise i can still kicks its arse. But today i got it to 78K mind and then hit me in the mind for 216, 220, 205, and lets just say i wasnt planned for it.....


But major part is have a decent PH and speed capp'd otherwise you'll never be able to solo em....

I highlighted the main points. The rest is not necessary to solo elders. It's nice don't get me wrong, but not necessary. I don't have that stuff, and I solo them just fine. I actually like stun baton elders, because batons have no AP, and I have an anti-decayed PSG and stun armor.

Woooooow. ok, one thing. if you use area attack to kill something like an elder, your either stupid and licky (if you live), or just stupid (if you die). area attack is one of the worst choices you can make when attacking an elder, lol. also, an "almost" 600 max ph could have been the reason you lost. thats nuthing first of all, and its even worse using an area attack. i'de suggest using head hit 3, heal, and imtim 2 the whole time.....and before you start, clear the caves around you so nuthing interfears...
