There's almoast no chance a hacker will beat an archive boss, now that the SOE has taken over. And i dont like it :/ I dont see ANYONE in the archives EMPTY, PUFF,NADA ,NUNCO. :smileymad:

Try this, I have tested it on 35-45 Widows Moor -

I went in at 45th level with about 20K left to level.  I attempted to kill the gargyole 3 time without luck then the 4th attempt was successful.  I leveled and after that the gargoyle was easily managable (i did have to still run away a couple times).  It worked until I got claim jumped and killed, got him about 8 times, could have been even better for me but the pk and the fact that my pants broke inside. 

I am going to try this with an alt char from the first archive, I will try to remember to post my results.  The obvious problem with this is you cannot leave after you level or you can't come back.  But hell, it allowed me to solo him for a few and since no one uses the archives anymore, it's pretty safe, just plan a lot of time to get maximum value out of the effort.

I was running Despoiler/Arby template pretty standard.


Good Luck!

Well when I go to an archive I load Ballista and Network Attacker....



Code shock him then use Combat Shutdown...get in CC and you have a good
chance on killing him. Also see if you can get a Improved Hacking
upgrade froma  friend
.  And there ya go.

code shock's a lvl 47 network attacker abil... and no one wants to kill taskmaster lol.



a hacker with maxed VT can still destroy any archive boss as long as
they've got an MA along to play meat shield. admittedly i never tried
yuki tengu with that method.
