If you can softcap, any AT should be able to take down a standard Elite Boss on their own. 
Fortunata can softcap all three at once, though it might be a bit expensive. As for AVs, it might be a bit harder as Fortunata doesn't have access to -regen (if I remember).

It's a bit hard and expensive to get perma mindlink as a Fort but they can get softcapped for all three quite easily without it. Not that expensive either.|

Forts do have -regen in the form of Poison Dark as well as Dart Burst. Their damage might still be a bit low to make soloing AVs practical though.
I worked up a Fort build yesterday that's softcapped to melee and 5% shy of the softcap to ranged without Mind Link. AoE Defense is lacking but w/ effective invisibility and Aura of Confusion I'm not too worried about it. Thanks for your replies. Just needed someone to confirm that I wouldn't have to scour the team window whenever something above Boss rank spawned.

EB yes. AV, not even close with that attack chain.|

As a side note, AVs have regen debuff resistance, the reason that it works well with things like rad is because lr has -500% regen. Widows can't get anywhere near that number so its totally ineffective.
Hey all. Been sitting on my 50 Widow for quite some time now. I'm lookin' toward IOing her out but I've got a conundrum. I'd like to IO her Fortunata build but the ability to take down Elite Bosses (And maybe Archvillains) solo is important to me. I'm wondering if that's feasible with a Fort since they're the AoE focused branch of the AT.
