Not only it is very impressive but even more amazing is you're doing this as fast as most builds do the regular RWZ challenge. 
Congrats !
Just a curiosity, how many tries before you could achieve this ? Looks to me there is a bit of luck involved there with a soft cap defense build and no self heal.
I dont say this to criticize or lower the performance : it's really impressive, and the killing speed is awesome !

You know, for a second there... yeah, I kinda did.

I see what you did there.
The most impressive part was at the beginning when you took off a massive chunk out of everything with just SC + FSC. I want to say it was ~1/4 a +4 boss' health. That's pretty crazy. Okay, doing it without any self heal or mitigation from your primary was also pretty incredible.

I'm gonna have to say probably 5+ tries. 2 Spanws close together arent easy to find.
And honestly though I didn't even think It could be done with out a self heal. Good thing I was wrong. 
Well I think I'm done with that build. Time to put out a bit more damage and a bit less survivavility...
That was pretty amazing if I may say so.
pardon my ignorance.... whats the RWZ Challenge
RWZ challege was designed by scrappers for scrappers to show how tough they are. You have to fight a Rikti spawn at L54 with 3 bosses. You cannot use inspirations, temporary powers, and I believe that you cannot corner pull but that last one is debatable.

I would like to know myself. Context clues tells me it has something to do with the 54s in RWZ and being solo.

The generally accepted rule is that you must have the attention of the entire spawn while killing them. So it doesn't count unless you have aggro from at least 4 53-54 level Bosses +whatever else is in the spawn during the fight. You can pull the spawn and then duck around a corner to bunch them up, but you can't pick them off one by one while only some of the spawn has aggro.
Other rules;
No temps; No Inspirations
Tier 9s are OK.
The City of Heroes Community is a special one and I will always look fondly on my times arguing, discussing and playing with you all. Thanks and thanks to the developers for a special experience.
Oh that's an actual challenge? I do that when I'm bored. Sometimes I clear a mob. Other times it hurts. Getting mezzed by 3 +4 bosses is the worst. I do it better on my BS/Regen scrapper then on my DM/WP or my DM/regen. And soloed a pylon. Parry rules! I need to try it with my BS/WP. I know don't have a chance with two mobs. That's 6 +4 bosses stacking mezzes and I can't use break frees or vanguard psi sheild. Ouch.

Heh. Yeah. I think the RWZ challenge appeared around I9. Whenever it was, it was before a lot of the scrapper buffs and a lot of the good IOs. It was more along the lines of testing to failure with an occasional success, though I think my success rate at the time was actually around 80-90%.
As we've gotten better, it's gotten easier and easier. It still takes a good build and a good player, but yeah, a lot of people these days are probably doing it without even knowing it as they grind out merits or just go looking for tough bad guys to kill. For me, it's a box to put a checkmark in before moving on to bigger and better things like AVs. Not that AVs are that hard either for a good build and a good player, but I think they're a step up from the old RWZ challenge.
Still, grats. Easier isn't the same as easy.

I started playing about a week or two before i9 went live. I don't even know what RWZ looked like before i10. so yeah, I can see it would have been a lot harder then. Its not even close to being easy now. Playing with a /regen means you can't sleep.

I know... I know...
For some, it's not really a challenge. For me however, every scrapper I take to 50 have to go through this. So I Figured I'd share it with you guys, after all the build does not have aidself. That has to count for something...
