Only CRA.

RA has separate drops?

@def3nse: thanks! Still a little confused, but also slightly more aware of it hehe

That's where skills come in hand, pretty different from damage range, and what-not. 40mil is guaranteed. if anything, 90% chance of killing with a pro db, and a pro player, who knows their tactics.

On a paladin with bt and si mules, hitting about 40m per line on blast I solo with about 1-3 minutes to spare depending on how absurd he's being.

35m with mpe pot should be enough to barely kill it. using your hyper right before it goes down helps your dps a lot

If it helps, i've seens NL's solo with 38+m per line

IMO the run gets easier as you progress because you get more time to attack when he starts doing the laser and poison attack. If you are really soloing, you get to control tail aggro. Surviving should be no problem.

From personal experience when I was an NL, 40m+

You have to be constantly attacking and consider one death (with or without buff freezers) detrimental to the timer

True. I guess he needs to be capping.

yes tu, with max dmg i take it to half hp in less than 7 min ( with si and mpe )
but then i die and die and die

[quote=antycleax]@def3nse: Yes it does. Do the math. 22mill = 1/2 HP. 44mill = 1/1 HP, assuming his control is the same.[/quote]

i should have clarified; the drops don't work that way

Im aware that if i did double my damage i could kill it easily but like cherrytigers said, you forgot to factor in different cvellum scenarios such as he fact that the faster i get him to do mist/laser, the more time i have time to hit him. You also didnt see that it took me 15mins to get it to 1/2, leaving me 5mins to spare. Assuming that i double my damage and what i said earlier about getting more time to hit him is accurate, i should have 6mins 30secs left, but what i want to know is the minimum dmg i could possibly do to solo him and have time to pick up drops.

[quote=antycleax]No. Do the math, it's simple. You need to be hitting around 40mill+ to kill it.
And why would you aim to solo it when you can just duo? Everyone gets their own drops anyways...[/quote]

it doesn't work like that
