Q:

I mostly mean in the PvP lobby but in game would be nice too. I can pretty easily solo the Blue lord and all NPCs in the lobby while on my Reaper and a few other classes but I have a really tough time on my Scrapper. Am I just doing it wrong? This is with the current Scrapper Meta build (Toughness Rune and Mara amulet)

A:

Hit casters first. Drop super elixir, acid bomb, rocket charge, right on top of all 5 npc, at the end of a dps rotation all but lord will be down. Sometimes one caster is alive, but just target over and burst down. Lord solo is cake. Just like you would kite any veteran or elite npc.

The only struggle is if a bunker ele shows up, you can’t out dps their heals.

I can solo lord with 3 medium skilled enemy players in room(better without reapet and revenant) final stomp with fun gyro + toss elixir b and slick shoes around to prevent them from ress :-)

“Doctor suggest me, to stop play with engi because my fingers are broken.
So.. I start play scrapper. "

Are you using the meta marauder build? Any tips? I just don’t feel like I have the same raw sustain I do on my Reaper. (on Reaper it is insanely easy for me)

I dont know how can you tell it eh just use hammer 5 on lord + rocket charge h3, then acid bomb, make some damage and if you feel that you can will die, just use haste, slick shoes run around room, use every condi clean, sneak gyro, or run out of room with sneak gyro(they may follow you, destroy gyro outside of door and run in stealth into lord again) meaby its more harder then reaper dont know, its only about rotating your cd at right time and thinking ablittle future what you will need :-)

Stomping Lord? I think you’re confusing the lords in this discussion. I assume you’re talking about stronghold lord and the op is talking about lord in Legacy of the Foefire. In foefire u don’t need to stomp the lord. And about soloing, the stronghold lord is much easier than the one in foefire, I have some trouble on my scrapper aswell but it’s doable.

Ah sorry for my not understand. Yea this I can but true is harder(player spawn near) I was earn some exp in pvp lobby. Just drop all cd (with marauder scrapper) and focus only lord. I trying to keep him in cc sustain under 70%hp and under 30%slick shoes him. Try to train it in lobby you can make it

I know the original poster was talking about PvP lord, but just FYI to anyone that finds this. Scrapper can solo many tower lords and all camp supervisors, somewhat easily in WvW. If you’re in the new BLs, Necro (NE) tower is the easiest to solo, the next easiest is the SE tower, then likely the Academy (NW) tower, and lastly, the teleporting around ogre in the SW tower. I’ve duo’d the SW and NW ones, but could likely have done those solo if I took my time and avoided things properly.

Lord of the Foefire is easy with scrapper. Like Basz wrote, just take care of the caster first.

Interesting. On my Reaper I always ignore the adds and just drop the lord. I’ll have to look at moving around a little more.

Not sure what you expected. A proper reaper is alot tankier than a scrapper.

In WvW when I solo T3 camps with 5ish dredge/ogres in them, I have to keep my scrapper mobile and avoid bursts. One wrong move before you cut them down in size and you could be dead.

When I do the same on my reaper, its just to go in full nuke, spin for win and go “lololololol” while regening more LF than the guards do damage.

I forgot how OP Reaper is against dumb targets. LOL
Moving becomes a novel concept if you play Reaper too much.
