I'm not trying to be a ******** here, but maybe you could tone the level down. Try +2 or +3.
That's a last resort, yes. And if even that doesn't work I'll consider inspirations. But I want to exhaust every possibility of doing it on +4 first.
People have soloed Lusca. There's got to be a tanker somewhere who's tried soloing Vanguard Sword before.

How about a second build you can work Hasten into? That's the problem if you insist on sticking strictly to concept: You have to accept the self-imposed limits they might present.

Kill 'em all. Let XP sort 'em out.
For reasons that probably won't make any sense if I explained them, I want to solo (in the sense of scrapper challenges, meaning no insps/temps/click accolades, and preferrably no Unstoppable too) at least one spawn of rogue Vanguard at +4/x8 with bosses. My tank is Inv/DB/Ice.

After a few tries, the thing that really stumps me is the Vanguard Sorceror. It has a Defense Aura that ticks every 1.5 seconds, debuffs recovery, and inflicts very heavy energy damage (I see hits of anywhere from 600 to 1k+ in my combat log). Even with softcapped energy defense, eventually a few ticks will get through. The minions and Lts are manageable, but the Sorceror kills me everytime before I can whittle it down. On +4 it's very, very difficult to melee.
Thoughts? Ideas? I'm open to respeccing if it comes to that.
