DeliCate and DeliKate IcePHIRE~
the Ice/Cold/Dark's IO build is about 95% complete, missing 2 Armageddons each...
wasnt planning to try GMs yet cuz was waiting for the 2nd's 33month vet Blackwand available in December, considering they have only 2 legit single target powers, lol....

but was really bored last morning and ran across an Eochai in PP while hunting for the Kraken. Decided to give him a whack or 3.....

Eochai in 7min

erm yeah..... i dont think anyone could solo down a GM by themself at this point in the game.... i think the devs made sure the powersets of an AT and game mechanics wouldnt let that happen.... it MIGHT be possible w/ a Solo spec'd "Cold or Rad/Sonic defender or a Ill/Rad - one of those types who sits back and casts out undefeatable pets... yeah.... but the mag of their debuffs/damage output may be too low for the GM's regen

It is quite possible, on a large assortment of defenders, controllers, corruptors, dominators, and MMs. Possibly others as well.

i can see it plausible....
sounds like an all-day affair

which perked my interest, some been mentioning on whether its possible to solo or duo an ITF or worse, an STF. Gonna look into doing a mITF someday, a mKTF or mSTF after that

solo mITF:

STF is possible duo (and has been done). I don't think it is possible solo, but would love to be proved wrong.

Also in response to this: It can be done in about 10-20 minutes with a good build. Lusca takes longer though obviously.

All-day affair as in it'll take all day? Haven't met a corruptor yet who took more than fifteen minutes to do a GM or even a pylon. I don't know enough defenders to judge how long it'd take one of them to do it though.

Excluding the Masters title, I think the major annoyance with STF would be finding fillers that will leave without having to be forcibly removed.

Edit: Darn you Kahlan.

I fully expected Kahlan to retort, but that way pretty damn quick response time.

Yeah, look up Silverado's sig. He's soloed a tonne of GMs on his defender. As for time, on my son/rad Pylons take about 10-12 mins iirc, most GMs who don't run around like headless spastics ( ,,l, Scrapyard) are 10-15.

An ice/cold defender with good defense should be more than capable of soloing an AV or GM.

As for corr vs defender times, the speed at which an AV/GMs health drops past the 50% mark is very noticeable. The last 5-10% goes crazy fast since you're pretty much doing double damage on every single hit (and AVs/GMs have the hp to take it, unlike minions/lts where much of the crit capability of Corrs is wasted). Given the extra debuff strength defenders have they shouldn't be too much slower, especially with a secondary like cold or sonic which are very high in damage.

Let us know if you manage to solo any GMs, I'd be interested to see.

prob have the skills to do it, but the duo power selection is geared to support each other, not solo.... anyhow, much funner duo'ing and dropping stuff that way for meh
