MichaelPetterson Posted October 12, 2014 Posted October 12, 2014 I'm trying to fight the elite boss on Taris and each time she hands my butt in me,in no short order. As a lv24 Sentinel I just can't seem to do enough damage before she takes out my companion,followed closely by me. I've tried using interrupts but she has 2 high-damage abilities that she likes using back-to back and it's impossible to interrupt them both,due to the cooldown on the only one I have,force Kick. Any tips on how I can do better against her,apart from over-leveling her by a ton,then coming back and kicking her ***?
MagikFingerz Posted October 12, 2014 Posted October 12, 2014 I can only assume that by "the elite boss on Taris" you mean the World Boss, in which case you're not supposed to be able to solo him/her/it even at level. World Bosses are supposed to be taken down by a group, and it's usually advertised in gen chat before someone is about to do so.
DTRO Posted October 12, 2014 Posted October 12, 2014 Have you tried using medpacks or Strength stims to boost your stats? And with ''Elite boss'' do you mean the class quest boss or a boss from a Heroic? Also do you use Kira or the robot ( not ship droid ) as a companion?

He says "She" so it's probably that random Sith Lord that Knights fight.

I'm not sure who you're fighting (there are many elites on Taris, not only one), but try LoSing her most damaging attacks. That is, run around the corner before the attack is finished channeling. Do either of the abilities she's using cause floor candy that you could step out of? Which companion are you using? What level are you? Are you geared in only Strength gear?
HaoZhao Posted October 13, 2014 Posted October 13, 2014 Solo fights are much easier with a well-geared tanking companion. If you die, the fight ends. If a companion dies, you're left in a 1-on-1 with a weakened boss which you might be able to win. Make sure to use heroic moment intelligently in hard fights.
Adric_the_Red Posted October 13, 2014 Posted October 13, 2014 (edited) it's impossible to interrupt them both,due to the cooldown on the only one I have,force Kick.You (should) also have Force Stasis at level 24. Use Force Kick to interrupt the first attack, then Force Stasis on the second. If she doesn't have "boss immunity", she can be stunned, which will cause her cast to fail, same as using your "interrupt" skill. (And it damages her while you're channeling it). And then after Force Stasis has finished, your Force Kick should be ready again, or nearly ready, so you can interrupt at least one of the two "big" attacks the next time through the cycle. Depending on how long she waits between them, your Force Stasis may even be ready, too. Edited October 13, 2014 by Adric_the_Red
AlixMV Posted October 13, 2014 Posted October 13, 2014 And don't forget you can pop your Heroic Moment, too, if you're having a tough time of things.
