Thread: Any way to still solo a krayt
Are there any new post-CU tactics for hunting ado-kratys? Or is it still something the riffle guys can do that we can't?

What does not make sense is that you guys can’t, there isn’t any way that’s right, my toon can but you can’t no way this was intended.
Apply some stooping shot, intimidate, blind, and dizzy, stun and range that sucker with parwan and you kill them much quicker than in the old days.
But I still think melee looks like more fun cya in there.

I solo'd a Juve the other day....Close fight....Kept running back to apply CoB again...but it worked
You need a COB macro. It's great since you never have to think about it, it just runs all the time. And it looks cool.
Here's a link:

Attempted to solo a Juvenile just yesterday. Could have done it but I got bored and didn't want my armor to get shredded to death. First off, I am a triple master (swords, pike, brawler...the rest dedicated to TK and force). So here's what I did.
Draw the poor teenage Kryat away from Mommy and Daddy.Don't use taunt because you'll too come too close and will be attacked immediately. Instead, swoop your way until the dragon's "?" becomes "!".
He then will give chase. Once you feel you have him where you want, dismount from your swoop and walk away from it or you risk loosing the swoop.
Now, with myImproved CoB running, I apply Improved Intimidate and Improved Stun.I then begin to take between 70-90 of damage per hit. I can deal with that since I have 3000 health points. It takes more than 30 hits to bring me down. As back up, I havefoods/drinks ready and my health crystal (+2000) ready.
Simplykeep the states applied and damage should not be a problem. I'm also using 1100 strength Stim Ds every minute, 5000+ padded armor, and an undershirt & bandolier with +16 ranged/melee defense each.
But the problem is to damage the thing.My hammer is no good. But haven't tried my polearm yet. Maybe tonight.
Krayts can still be solo'ed ...well juvi's anyway (but hey they still drop tissues)...i discovered just a few days ago after going back out there that it is easy to take on a juvi with the right stuff. I'm tkm/swords with 4000 doc, for teh first few krayts i killed i would just armorbreak and hit the thing as hard as i culd while frequently using bactashot (i heal for around 550-650) and if my health got too low i would knock down the krayt put in a bacta infusion, use a 1100 heal stim, and a bactashot at the same time. It was easy to take them down w/ 6k ham = ) but if i got on a downer i was in trouble
So i figured out a way to make it much easier is to keep center of being on, armorbreak on, and bactainfusion on..i hardly ever have to heal with bactashot, and dont need stims and the krayts go down much faster since i dont have to heal as much.......still cant get those darn canyons by myself tho = (

Great Info. Shhhhhhhhhhh, keep it on the down low. Or they will nerf it.

If there is I would say it would be by a jedi healer....my combat character is Master TK , Master Swords, Master Brawler, and Pikes 0/1/1/0 at the moment, and CL 80. I tried a lvl 79 juvie krayt on for size, and it had about 35k hp. It was doing fairly random dmg to me, from 100-230 for some reason (I was using inate armor), and I was doing about 800dmg to it with a nice power hammer and the critical strike (300 for the other attacks....and power attack doen't work most of the time soI didn't even try that). I don't see how anyone could knock it down 35k by themselves with only the one stim heal we get. I can only do about 7-10 attacks before my action is gone anyway, even if I could tank it longer. I got its hp about40% downor so before I was killed.

You need jedi defender as well ... that is how i take them down ... defender and a flashlight
Krayts are suppost to be the toughest creatures in the star wars universe, soloing them just seems wrong...
