lol im a master rifleman and a master swordsman and i can rifle tank him and the 2 kwis and 2 klikniks and 3 spiders that are down there with him... Basically 90% armor is a must when u take a ranged profession and do it with a melee... But other then that have plenty of brandy and arisha and moun on hand if u get in trouble and get some uber weps to get the job done right because the acklay is acid effective so get ur hands on a nice dxr6-b with about 780 dmg with a pu..

Dumb question, kaica - but are you remembering to intimidate?
Maybe it's me - I use a full 90% suit, and I can survive the whole room beating on me for the time the Acklay's going down.
Also...Kwis? There are occasionally 1-2 that pop up in the hallway leading to the chamber, but I've NEVER seen ANY actually inside the chamber. The best tactic is to enter, stand over where the pillar is (staying about 25m away from where the EKlik spawns, keeping the pillar between you and he, and you're safe. When the Ack spawns, hug the pillar, /taunt then /intim1/2. With luck, you'll get him to come over to you, and get some of the creatures that DON'T aggro you to aggro the Ack.

Run to lesser mobs using spinattack2 while targeting acklay, every swing of hammer will damage
them all. Use intimidate, and warcry when you need to heal. Good accuracy food helps too.

don't use a hammer..he is higher resists to blast than kinetic...but yes,spin attack untill all the kliks/spiders are dead that are attacking you,leave alone the ones that aren't sometimes they help you kill acklay

I never go with the minimum on the health and action because theres those times that you run unbuffed and get one shotted by npcs and there you are incapped by some weak mob. I go for 500/500/1000- 100 points does make a difference and the secondary mind stats are easily taken care of with buffs, brandy, and canape. Just need to learn how to time it right and you're set.

yah, migrating all your stats so you cap mind stats is a very nice thing
If you're a human, I find going 400/400/1000 (with 1k/1k/1k on mind, focus, and willpower) is preferable.
Also, as a rifleman, you should be using a DXR-6b instead of a T21.
