https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/8648965/Pathos-GOH-Raid-Solo.jpgI'm going to go ahead and assume I'm far from the first to manage this with this lineup, but ignoring for the present how ridiculous it is that one can solo the thing after a mod "rebalance", it was still a satisfyingly fist-pumping moment. Having said that, getting there was so tedious in function that to attempt to do this again will certainly be anything but satisfying. Well, tedious save for the all-action P4 finale. Late innings batting collapse beginning with the loss of EE meant I lost toons left and right and it went down to the proverbial wire. Teebo, last man standing, out of stealth and on his last bit of TM, finally put the Rancor down with a clutch crit on his Bring Low. I'd like to think he leapt in there with a bellowed Ewok war-cry (or perhaps that was me). Was quite the nail biter. If it had been a movie, you'd have seen a bloodied Teebo jumping out of the path of the toppling Rancor in super slow motion, possibly with a furry commando roll. Just made it an all the more cheer-some moment (which I was sadly too caught up in to catch the climactic screenie). https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/8648965/Pathos-GOH-Raid-Solo-2.jpgPotency was: Teebo - 94.96QGJ - 104.5Rex - 85.295's - 81.82 (Note: to make my life less TM strenuous, I have no omega on his basic)https://swgoh.gg/u/pathos/

Hey @Pathos have question for ya: rex basic omega'ed (100% tm reduction), do you really need to get higher potency on Rex to make it land?P.S.: grats btw! hats off! kudos! props! thumbs up! :D

And yes, Rex doesn't need very much at all to land (I like to cover my bases). Even at a moderate level he is a superstar at TM reduction. Far and away the most consistent relative to potency.What I would recommend is stick a Potency Accuracy arrow on QGJ for raiding and he'll never miss again (resisted, sure, but never whiff).

I did some tracking and calculated the rancor tenacity to be 120%. For instance my teebo stealthed at 85 potency was resisted 35% of the time in p2 and p3.

Sooo, what happens to the rest of the guild when you or others do these solo runs?
I'd be pretty peeved if one person was doing this.....

A valid concern, with some straightforward answers - either confirm via chat that everyone is done, or play it safe and don't post damage until moments before the hour-long, post raid completion prize allocation window is due to close. No one misses out on running the raid the way they so choose.

Suffice to say each guild will manage things in their own way, relative to their tier and effective player base. I am in an exceptionally well organised guild that has no problem with these kinds of achievements, so long as it's done sensibly and you're not posting damage ahead of everyone and effectively closing the tiers/raid ahead of time. Though I would posit "don't be a twat about stuff like this" should be as inherent as "do not go around randomly slapping people".

Thanks to your post I decided to try this. Finally having an actual weekend to dedicate to raiding I had enough time unlike the usual, having to stop for work.

My ending wasn't as exciting as yours, probably due to RNG favoring me. I had to revive 3 characters during P4 (Rex, Qui-gon, Teebo).

I gave my guild a warning before I finished the last %. And I'll probably never do this again unless required as it took over 3 hours. I even fell asleep between since we start at 5am in my time.

Relevant statistics below. I feel speed is pretty important so I've listed it as well.

Teebo - 98.41% potency / 164 speed,
Qui-gon - 105.76% potency / 220 speed
Fives - 68.79% potency / 154 speed
Rex - 79.41% potency / 185 speed
Ewok Elder - 145 speed

A while back I recorded about 200 attempts at turn meter reduction from Teebo while stealthed vs the Rancor with 87% potency. I was at a figure close to 66% success rate. So figure what you will with this small sample. I suspect this means due to a minimum of 15% resistance the cap amount should be close to 107% ?

The rancor resists a lot less in the last phase so this turned out easier than I thought. The only thing I'd improve in my team is probably my Ewok Elder speed and the team's overall damage, so that the raid will end quicker.

Great post, Zett! And great run. Nice RNG on your revives and a strong finish, far superior to my own. I unfortunately lost my EE first, with the Rancor @ 19%, hence no revives and the compounding of the late hour dramatics. Still, given the manner of the improbable outcome and subsequent euphoria, I wouldn't have had it any other way.

I'm in complete agreement on not wanting to ever really do this again for reasons of length and associated tedium. With that out of your system (and your stats at a good level), and in direct contrast to the lethargy of the noted glacial approach, I'd heartily recommend a Wiggs setup from the raid get go for some truly warp speed, high risk, high reward funnin'. This for example took all of 16 mins and change from a P1 start (during a 24 hour no damage window so sadly could not continue). With better RNG I'm convinced one could hit P3 in record time. Added bonus - you get to use the rest of your roster!

why the title says without dengar? You replace who by dengar ?

So Rancor has a 105% + 15% base tenacity... with 85% potency, you reduce the rancor to 20% + 15% base... exactly 35% like you observed.

How are you getting Teebo to 94 Potency? Can you post your mod setup?

Gotta be primary stat on + with lots of secondary (maybe all) potency stats. It probably either requires lots of luck and/or crystals to get them.
