After the ns got ther powers back, i tried soloing a few, but mostly hunt them in group of 3.
First 2 elders I attempted solo, I was able to beat, the third whopped my ass. I hunted about 4 more solo, but now hunt them in group of 3 much better that way.
I find there is to much risk for me to solo an elder and not worth the armour decay, much easier with a group of three and more fun.
How are you soloing elders with only novice medic. Some the ones i fight with 2 handed, put massive mind bleeds on you, incapping you in secs if you don't stop the bleed.
NS edler variability:
Able to hit you light saber special for 3-4k.(got hit back back with these not pretty)
Rediculously massive bleeds, when its to mind, all the worse.
For the above reason chose to hunt in group, benefit out ways risk.

I can solo elders very easily as a Master Swordsman, Master Brawler, and 4/0/3/0 doctor. Probably wouldn't be able to solo them if I wasn't speed capped though 
When I go hunting I always bring state stims, stim Es, plenty6 of powerups, take 2 brandys, 3 canapes, and a muon. I use 80%+ armor and my powerhammer is 720 damage with powerup (not my best, don't wanna kill my acklay's condition)
Soloed 6 elders this morning...not one friggin loot

My biggest problem with soloing night sisters has been pulling just one at a time. I always seem to get mobbed by like 6 of them and then it's curtains. Any tips?

Just run up to them (don't get too close, I usually don't go closer than 30m) until one shows a ? mark over their head and wait. Usually you will only agro one.

Yes, yes, we all know it's possible. If the **edit** doesn't dispawn before you kill her...grrr.
When she starts to run away, /taunt and she will stop running. Works like a charm.

Is it very possible with a Master Swordsman / Master Doctor template? I am levelling Swords (should be done soon.... have gone to 0422 in about 2-3 buff sessions so far).
I have not played with the Power Hammer yet (using a speed-sliced 2-hand sword atm) but assume I should go for a Damage Sliced PH when I go NS hunting, right?
Any other help is greatly appreciated as I spend most of my time hunting on Dantooine so handling the Nightsisters will be something new.

As a master swordsman/master doc Elders literally own me solo. It's fine for a while...then all of a sudden they do 2 uber attacks or a force choke and you're dead.So....how do you counter them doing force choke or hitting you for 1k+ dmg per attack?
XXX (a Nightsister elder) uses wrath of kun on you for 14386 points of damage!
Your defensive buffs absorb 7183 of damage!
You fall incapacitated!
You were slain by XXX (a Nightsister elder)
freaking elders and their stunbats/lightsaber specials.
