Hello all. I just recently joined your ranks as a Master Swordsman!!!! About an hour ago infact. I have heard and seen many people soloing elders and Krayts and what not. I would like to know, how do you solo a Krayt, and can you or have I heard wrong? What food, drinks, armor,etc. do I need to do it? My template is in my sig. I mite drop fencer and take master brawler and some medic if it helps with highend pve more since pvp is a little....lackluster. So if anyone could answer my question, please DO!

You might want to change that template by dropping either master fencer or tkm (i would drop fencer personally) and pick up some medic skills. 4040 medic would enable you to use lower-med experimented stim D's and heal for around 1500 -you mayhave really high defenses but eventually an elder will get the better of you with its bleeds and what not and being able to heal your H/A pools will save ur life.


Foodwise... well I dunno really, get some vercupti as a backup - otherwise just get some brandy and a mind buff and should do fine. You could use synthsteak (or exo proteins) but really it wouldn't be worth it, you'll be eating so much of it that you will have a full belly in no time.

yeah, to solo krayts, you need master swords and enough medic to heal buffed (healing for 200 wont help much )


an just whack away with headhit3, keep it intimidated

Im currious about this also.

Ive been asking around earlier but ive changed my template lately.

What medic skills do i need to use "good" stims.


Im currently:

Master Swordsman

Master Brawler

TKA: 4?x? not sure how i will divide the last sp's, but it will be for defense only.

Fencer: 3/4/0/4 (will master within the next day)

And then, i want to put just as much as i can into medic, so what would i need, only to use stims healing more than 200?


So would you be able to take a krayt with this template (assuming im able to use good stims then).

M.Doc buffs, Mind buff, Ahrisa, brandy, synthsteak, and a good composite.

Also, 3 points from speed capp swordsman.

830+ damage hammer.

2030 medic is probably the best medic to go for. That allows you to use Stim-C's and stop bleeds with /firstaid. If you want better, go 2040. That should allow you to use stim-D's.

putting that much medic in my template would mess up my tka skills.

the only skill i really want to keep from tka is meditation & force of will, but if i can manage to treat my wounds with the medic skills i might loose meditation and just put some points in defense. damn

How u guys think this looks instead of the template im currently working with.

to obtain more medic skills í would have to loose all tka defenses if im to keep meditation line, tho, i guess its better to put my sp in defense than meditation if im getting more medic skills, as i hope i will be able to treat myself as a medic, and heal states.

However, i've compared 2 templates, one where i put sp i tka defenses, and another where i put them in pikeman defenses, (state defenses).


They look like this.


Template 1
M.brawler
M.Swordsman
M.Fencer
Pikeman 0/0/4/0
Medic 2/1/3/0


Defenses:
Defense vs Blind +70
Defense vs Dizzy +80
Defense vs Intimidate +40
Defense vs Knockdown +95
Defense vs Posture Change +80
Defense vs Stun +70

Ranged Defense+99

Melee Defense+116


Template 2
M.Brawler
M.Fencer
M.Swordsman
TKA 0/4/0/0
Medic 2/1/3/0


Defenses:
Defense vs Blind +60
Defense vs Dizzy +65
Defense vs Intimidate +40
Defense vs Knockdown +95
Defense vs Posture Change +90
Defense vs Stun +65

Ranged Defense+89

Melee Defense+101



i cant see any reason to go with the tka defenses instead of pikeman, pikemans state defenses are slightly better.


what u guys say? or should i put less sp in polearm defenses and go for more med`? any suggestions welcome.


(edit) and oh, ofcoz, ill be able to swing some dot pikeman gear with this aswell (/edit)

i would say... dont worry about it too much. do what you enjoy

i'm master swords, master droid engineer, 2000 medic and i can solo almost anything in the game. so go with what you like and dont worry too much about that extra 10 defense, it wont make or break you.

Yeah, swordsman is fantastic, for sure =D


Anyways, I suggest you get yourself:


- A good set of PvE armor

- Vasarian Brandy

- Enough medic skills to heal for at LEAST 1000 each heal, as well as first aid to get rid of bleeds

- Vercupti of Agazza Beovluleulseutlesul - 1k hams for 8 minutes is a bonus

- Ahrisa

- Muon

- Good damage-dealin' Powerhammer (Acklay, 800+ w/pup preferred)


RECIPE:


Get buffed, equip armor and head to your elder.

Pop both brandies, an Agazza, and an Ahrisa.

Engage and run, engage and kill in safe circumstances, until your elder is available to be pulled solo.

FIGHT! Always keep her intimidated. Heal bleeds whenever the occur, immediately.

Heal HA bars when they get about 1 third down.


As for krayts, not necessarily as hard.


Same as above, except you reall don't have to worry too much about bleeds, unless it's changed since I was soloing them.

Hahahaha, you are gonna be searching for a LOT more than an hour, my friend.


I suggest getting ranger, or A ranger, and having him scout around the place for a day or so, if you are lucky you will find a few.
