Tried to solo a krayt today. It was a giant canyon and using fist I did horrible damage. Changed to vibro lance did alittle more horrible damage. It was impossible and I had to burst run away. Some tank LOL! TKA damage is the suxor. Hope they take a look at it. There are no weapons other than two Kashyyyk knucklers. Blaster fist suck and bare fist suck your action dry.

Giant canyon krayts are pretty nasty. You'll probably need a group for them. I can solo Juv's fairly easy but it's still a fight.I haven't quite figured out how to solo Canyon Krayts, but I am learning.
As far as knucklers go... yeah blaster fists kind of bite.I have one right now that I use every now and then when I'm trying to cut back on action costs. Having another one made right now with +79 dmg -.50 speed tissues and a +28 nym motor as a test. Has anybody even made a Black Sun Razor Knuckler yet? I'm kind of curious as to the stats it would have.

Hmm juveniles are easy canyons are a bit harder and take a lot longer but then the giant ones are so horrible i can only kill them only with buffs and withthe right foods makes it so much easier.

Being TKM/Msword/4xxx Doctor I'm able to easily take Juveniles and Canyon krayts but Giants give me trouble. I usually run out of mind therefore I die a horrible death. I also can in no way hold the aggro of Giants, Grands, or Ancients.

I'm thinking ranged kiting is the only way to take an ancient down. I accidently ran into one that *appeared out of thin air* as I jumped off my swoop to do a mission. He killed me before I could get CoB activated or feign. I'm thinking that with more practice I can probably take down a canyon krayt with my temp, but it will take a better weapon, some pretty good food usage and mind management to get it done. I had one down pretty far, but I was running low on mind and had to feign. By the time I regened a little mind, he was regen'ed to full health. I'm using a blaster fist and/or bare fists right now, and it just doesn't get it done against a canyon. If only I could find a med droid that doesn't get incapped on the first AoE and can repair himself.

Remember a tank is a damage taker not a damage dealer. TKM fills it role good (other than having a hard time keeping agrom) I tanked a giant canyon solofor about 15 minutes the other night then my mind ran out.I had some food in me, but I think there is more I could have been using, plus having some stims would have saved some of my mind. The biggest problems with these guys is their regen rates, they are just insane, after the 15 minutes of pounding on this guy, keeping him intimidated and under warcry, I think he was still at about 75% health, lol. A three man team with a second healer and a mjor damage dealer could easily take these guys down. Or someone with an uber pike, mine are so so from pre CU around 860 damage so there is way more damage potential out there.

Juveniles are simple, canyons are very tough but do-able if you have food and buffs plus a strong melee template with healing.
Giants are very, very nasty. Through my innate armour they do appx 700 damage. I cannot hold aggro from these and cannot solo them.
Ancients go trough me like butter, 800-1000 per hit.
This is my char who has no BE clothes, wears no armour, is CL78, unbuffed and no food.
Not surehow a CL80 TKA would fare im afraid.

TKA > Krayt
I do, anyway.
I've killed every type of krayt, except for Ancient. Too scared to do that :-/

I took down an adolecent tonight, he was level 82 I think. It took a bit of time, maybe 10 minutes. It was a good battle, near the end my mind was getting really low, but in the end I prevailedCurrious thing, the level 82 adolecent krayt was much harder to take down than a level 85 Nightsister that I fought earlier tonight. Anyone know why this is?

Yeah, I have noticed the same thing... nightsisters seem to be a pushover now compared to even a juvenille krayt.
Black sun guys are a LOT tougher to kill than nightsisters are.
