I usually don't even use armor against nightsisters. I just use CoB and spam area3.

You obviously dont kill the hard ones or more than 2 at once.

Define 'hard'.
I kill sentinels and anything weaker than that without armor.

Spell weavers, protectors, Elders abover 40k ham.
Im also assuming if you arent wearing armor you are also unbuffed, good luck taking on more than 3 sentinels at once.

Yeah, I need armor for those. I guess I'm just too content killing the easier ones.

I solo them all the time post bleed patch. It is just as easy as before, simply takes a bit longer. I don't use FD, just stand toe to toe. If you have a good template, and are smart, you can do it easily without kiting or exploiting in any way.
Cheers!

Oh, and it takes anywhere from 8-12 minutes depending on if I get intimidated or not.

i've seen a master rifleman solo an elder. this was before the patch, but i'm sure it can still be done. it'll just take a bit longer. elders tend to walk after you instead of run, so they can be kited. not very useful to us though
Um, I'd like to know what rifle he was using, high level Nightsisters are 100% resistant toall our damage types (as are many high level NPCs/MOBs. Unless he was bleeding and running away... but that'd takeforever considering their HAM.

i'm master swordsgurl and master doc, just raped everything i used to be able to today. I just intimidate and spam head hit 3, no cob, unless its like 3 protectors. I do this with 84+base comp, full buff including mind and brandy..mmmmm brandy. And yeah none of my bars even moved. So much for master doc, at least i don't have to wait in line for buffs. I prolly should add that my 466 base hammer is 35% sliced for dam, and i have +19 to spd, which puts me at th eone second cap. Also have +20 counter attack, +18 accuracy and +13 damage. I only ever get in trouble when i get weakened. I hate that.
