Who is the strongest?

Gares of War's picture

Gares of War — Mon, 02/25/2008 - 13:33

I was curious on how high a level elite people have managed to solo.  I have discovered I can fight a lvl 69 giant elite in netherstorm by myself.  I was curious if anyone has a monster they can beat for their claim to fame.

 

Lvl 70 warrior- Dracondros defeats Firkrag (something or other to this effect)

Solo'd Uvuros in SMV - Kited

Cisper — Wed, 02/27/2008 - 18:27

Solo'd Uvuros in SMV - Kited him from where he spawns (Near BT) to Shattrath, where I kited him around for 5mins, while randoms DPS'd him - he also killed A'dal which was quite the humurous.

 Best Solo would be Pre-BC, killing the Scarlet Courier Solo

The turtles in front of

Shihli — Wed, 02/27/2008 - 13:13

The turtles in front of Naj'entus are lv. 71+, therefore cannot be tamed.

Highest-level turtles you're going to find are lv. 54 turtles in Azshara.  They aren't really worth the trouble - what strength they have in defense is lost by the fact that they have no other special abilities really, as well as jack and shit ability to hold aggro.

Go with a boar if you want a tanking pet.

The biggest mob I can

starstalker — Wed, 02/27/2008 - 12:45

The biggest mob I can remember intentionally engaging are the tree's in skettis. Porky and I can usually do them without problem.

 

I want to tame a turtle and try soloing a fel reaver one of these days...Maybe after I get the beast shoulders and beast leggings...

 

edit: ooh....maybe I can tame one of the turtles in front of najentus...

I can solo Strat DK. That

Shinzwei — Wed, 02/27/2008 - 12:13

I can solo Strat DK. That counts right?

I have killed all the elites

Karli — Wed, 02/27/2008 - 11:57

I have killed all the elites in Skettis (Alluvion, Trees).  I have only done it as arcane though, using combos of Slow + Blink.

I can clear through most of the trash mobs in Mana Tombs.... 

i solod rag, true story

It depends on the elite's

Ardea — Tue, 02/26/2008 - 09:55

It depends on the elite's abilities... As a frost mage I was able to solo any elite that can be rooted.

 I think my record was 2x 68-69 elite "Son of Corok"... unintentional body pull =/

As a druid it was determined by if I can bash and have enough time to quickly heal myself... cann't remember anything worth noting...

My rogue tried everything at least once if his vanish was off CD.

 

Edit: No Joke - I had to three shot Hogger yesterday. First shot was resisted, second took 3/4 of his life. LOL

Pre-BC i once had to solo

Barqz — Tue, 02/26/2008 - 08:26

Pre-BC i once had to solo kill ony.  some of you may remember that night :P

 

 


And I would lay down my life to birth a new generation of a righteous culture. To a people I could proudly love and cherish.

Hogger was a challenge but I

Hogger was a challenge but I finally managed last week. Did what I could but the guy gave me a run for my money.

Elite mobs vary dramatically

Tankard — Mon, 02/25/2008 - 17:58

Elite mobs vary dramatically in strength.  Some are meant to be 5 manned, others not.
  The toughest elite I've solod is the last boss in normal Ramparts.  And his dragon.  It's nice having your own private tank (VW).

I've soloed most of the rare

Luminaire — Mon, 02/25/2008 - 16:52

I've soloed most of the rare elites in blade's edge, netherstorm, and smv plus others for group quests (even a few that would usually require 5 people)

He can be cc'd, just not by

Dufe — Mon, 02/25/2008 - 16:20

He can be cc'd, just not by a mage.  But still way easy.

All the adds and the "boss"

Dikymo — Mon, 02/25/2008 - 16:15

All the adds and the "boss" from the at'amal terrace quest. Alluvion can be CC'd and at one time was a sure thing to drop 3 to 5 motes of water.

I've done Alluvion - lvl 72

Dufe — Mon, 02/25/2008 - 15:43

I've done Alluvion - lvl 72 Elite Water Elemental in Skettis.  He's way easier than most of that level though.

Uhhh  On my druid I could

mav — Mon, 02/25/2008 - 15:41

Uhhh

 On my druid I could solo a few quest mobs in Netherstorm and the tree giants in Skettis. Bash heal FTW

I fought the named version

Gares of War — Mon, 02/25/2008 - 14:08

I fought the named version of them. So we would be roughly equal then.

The last really big elites I

garreth — Mon, 02/25/2008 - 13:58

The last really big elites I solo'd were the huge rock dudes in Netherstorm (Farahlon Breaker).  Took about 10 minutes each and a few mana pots, but I could take them down ;)
