To the people who can solo the acklay, NS elder etc.. I have a question:

HOW?!?:smileyvery-happy:

I've done the acklay once with another master swordsman/tka who had some medic skills.... withought him healing me about 5 timesI would have boned.


I have a nice comp suit.

2 speed scythe max damage 350which has+15 to all ranges

I use 400+ brandy

Canapes

buffed (obviously)

I use mind costreducing powerups


Perhaps the difference between you guysand me lies in my template?

I certainly don't doubt you guys who can solo krayt's, acklays, axvia minh etcBut where am I going wrong? On a single enemy I always hit the mind, when surrounded I area3. I feel I could never solo the acklay which Isee you guys say is the easiest thing Swordsman can solo.Anyhelp would be apprecaited.

most say they use a minimal amount of stims, but they still use stims. Another thing to consider: are you getting entertainer buffs?

hi, ok well i have soloed a 340k HAM nightsister elder and the way i did it was basicaly use intimidation about 4 times then with my powerhammer smacked it on the head until the intimidation wears out, when it does just reapply and headhit away, i had buffs 2 uses of brandy and ~80% kenetic resist armour, i died once but that was only due to the damed armour hole bug.

The formula is simple man need at least 80% armor, preferred 85-90. Novice Medic just in case youneed a heal from an armor hole hit othewise my ham doesnt move except mind when canape wears off, just eat another one. The main thingis use INTIMIDATE it is god, if you have Intimidate 2 from Master Brawler its alot better since it sticks longer my guess is around 5 min. I also use COB, it seems to help some but I cant be sure of it. And finally look at the resists PH for Elder, Krayt and Kimo and Scythe for Acklay he's the only high mob, if u want to call him that, that I use the scythe on.

I'm Master Rifleman, Master Swordsman Fencer 4400 Medic 1000, I can solo a nightsister elder, fairly easily, it takes around 30 minutes to do so, but it isn't all that difficult.


First I use mindshot2 on the elder, I then kite her for as long as possible using headshot3 (I can take her mind down quicker with my t21, I try to get the most bang/buck) when she gets on top of me its time for the PH, keep intimidate on her, and if things get real bad, use a warcry, heal, CoB intimidate again, heal then continue the onslaught. Rinse, repeat.

Heh, you don't need uber 90% composite. I do fine in just my 70% Ubese (only switching to comp when a NS switches to a non-kinetic weapon).

it all comes down to armor.



i was a master swordsman for months and couldn't do anything above 20k ham because i had no armor.


i knew i COULD do it with armor but i couldn't do it without it.



so i made my alt a human and got some 80 kinetic - all mobs are basically doable with high end kinetic armor.


the only reason people are killing nightsisters so easily right now is becase they aren't using force powers - don't think its some amazing skill.


in the end mobs are just computer generated AI and easy to beat becasue they are predictable.


just keep up with your ham, make sure you eat the right foods, buff and wear armor and you can kill anything.


there are some subtle tricks to doing it faster and better but basically its just a hack and slash.


that is why PVP is always better and the true end game - they have HI - human intelligence. they use tactics and fight harder

well i'm master swords -master tailor and the rest of my skill points are tied up in merchant and surveying skills, i don't have any brawler skills apart from the two handed tree and and I definately don't have any to spare for medic. But the intimidate thingmight be wortha shot. Thanks

Well I'm


tka 4304


master fencer


master swordsman


master brawler



so I have no novice medic at all... the way I solo tougher mobs, is firstly intim2, you must keep them intimed the entire time or else they hurt too much. I apply mind bleed, headhit3 a lot, when I've dropped to about 1/2 life or so, warcry2 them, remove all my armor and let my stats regen for the 20 seconds (can also re-apply intim2 during this pause since it doesn't break warcry delay), put back on armor after 18 seconds or so and resume bashing... intimidated mobs won't be able t do more dmg in 10 seconds than you regen in 20 so if your health is ever shaky you can just keep warcry2ing them each time the 30 sec timer expires until you're back into safe health again..
