Or, more accurately, druid pet vs Wuoshi.

On my first attempt, I brought Rapticor over to play tank for me. He's a level 42 tigeraptor with around 4k HPs.

Image

Unfortunately, he didn't last too long. Judging by the picture, I'd guess it was the claws that got him. :( I decided I needed a beefier tank, so next attempt I brought in a black unicorn. The black unicorns are much tougher than the white ones, and have around 10k HPs and a high resistances.

Image

Of course, the first thing Wuoshi did was cast dispell on my pet, removing charm. (On PC side, they eventually made dire charm not dispellable.) I ran away and came back the next day, one more lesson learned. Even though dispell isn't listed on her AOEs, Wuoshi's a druid and can cast it. So, I filled up the pet with a bunch of junk buffs before the charm, and hoped for better luck with the dispells next time.

Image

Well, this is how the last fight went. That's my pet over there on the far left, trying to run away. I think that poor unicorn spent more time running away than actually attacking the dragon. Luckily, it would keep getting summoned back, and so almost never made it out of range for my heals.

So, I figured out how to keep the pet alive. What about DPS? Wuoshi is a belly caster, meaning you have to be in melee range to land any spells on her. Of course if I'm in melee range, I'm getting ripped apart by a dragon. I only tried that once, and the 20% of my HPs lost just wasn't worth the one spell I landed. The one form of damage I could do from range was to keep a damage shield up on my pet. 40 point damage shield vs 40,000+ HP dragon. How long did that take? About a half hour.

Thanks to Eloween for all the summoned pet gear, and to Utdaan for the enchanter buffs and cheering me on.

That is Awsome Dwin! I love stories like this one. I tried to train Wuoshi a while back with a few giants but even though they are mortal enemies they apparently have no problem hangin out together :shock:

I'm pretty sure a couple other people have done it, but my search didn't turn up anything. I think I'm the first druid though.

I also brightened up the pictures; some people were having trouble seeing them before.

I don't think so. I think Corinth tried....

Zorb and I duo'd a year or so ago, but that's nowhere near a solo :).

You've been slacking off then Kyth. I was sure that either you or Corinth had done it.

I think that makes this the first Dragon soloed on the server.

Wuoshi, Sev and Talendor are hit and miss fights. You can get lucky if they're casting and get them down or get unlucky and they'll beat your brains to a bloody pulp. Go go RNG! Fun fight. Go play with Sev, Dwin. :evil:

I was looking at the other dragons, thinking about a next target. Unfortunately, with my current pet-tanking method I'm severely limited by which zones have good charm pets available. For example, I don't see anything above 3k HPs in Emerald Jungle that I can use against Severilous.

Wuoshi dumped all her mana in the first 5 or 10 minutes. She dispelled my pet a couple times, dotted, and nuked. Then 20+ minutes of pure melee, so I saw pretty much anything she could dish out.

Yeah I don't think luck applies too much in a 30 minute fight ;).

I definitely didn't solo wuoshi Dwin -- I doubt that I can yet. If anyone did, it was Cor.
