not really.... one dood devised a fancy way of using shrine priests and pulling mobs, but it's so annoying and hard that most people wouldnt even bother.
Usually people 3 man farm him. If someone comes up with an easy and fast way to solo him, that guy would be a genius.

He would be soloable if he was just with a few wardens but ,,,, hes with about 20 + mixed foes , abit of a pain , reason why the shield is still sought after =)

he is indeed very soloable as a monk/warrior using the 600 build. i found a way to take down the necromancers around him, the warden and the worst, the evil enchant stripping mesmer. with a bit of luck (and good timing with KD and using dis chopping his heal sig..)

however, i have NOT managed it so far, i got him left solo a few times (~4) but i KEEP forgetting to pick the freaking interrupt! lol :|

build:

protective spirit
spirit bond
shield of judgment
disrupting chop
blessed signet (else youll have energy probs when taking him solo)
blessed aura
b spirit or essence bond
retribution

suppsoe ill just post a screeny tomorrow when i feel like doing it again and picking the correct skills for once. -.- but be warned, it can be really annoying to get those necros down (gotta pull carefully so they wont spike you with blood), then surviving shatter enchant (you have nothing to cover) and then surviving solo (only using ps until your about to die, then using spirit bond once or twice for full hp, renewing energy with blessed [watch kd] and interrupting his heal sig), and somehow try to get a soj in now and then.. etc etc..good luck!

(attributes would be 12 smiting and 11 divine & prot, no sup runes, minor only, prot head, totem axe and a random foci that gives me health bonus, armor is from shing jae with +health as well so retribution deals more, yay)

shatter ench + cry will own you, no point in wasting time with 600 or 55hp

That build

Switch out bonettis + Retribution and take Ignorance + Mantra of Persistance.

In theory, it could now work.

I had the Idea (never tested it)


Basic Idea:

Elementalist/Monk 13hp
got 16Earth Magic leftovers in Healing and Protective
(tank)

Monk
16 Divine Favor
Help the Elementalist with enchantments and
Put Spell Breaker on him

the Elementalist Tanks AND does the Damage
The Monks Just there to help the Elementalist with Spell Breaker...

Should be doable, i have a Video i nearly Made it single...

But there's still "some" work to do...

i was thinking along the lines of Spiritbond, Spellbreaker, Silver Armor. with a 600hp-ish monk. Aggro as much as you can, thrown on spellbreaker, spiritbond, stand next to sunreach. he should die before Spellbreaker runs out if the surrounding mob is big enought.

i am too lazy to try. some wanna test it out for me?

bonettis? i dont even use bonettis, retribution is a good way to deal damage if you cant get a soj out, and you just interrupt his signet. if you go with 600, YOU DO NOT HAVE ENOUGH ENERGY TO KEEP IGNORANCE UP AGAINST ONE SINGLE ENEMY! and why mantra? he doesnt interrupt you, he knocks you down.

anyways, found a screen when i did it the first time with wrong skills. havnt tried again as i have been doing other things, and its so terrible annoying to get the necros and the mes down.

Clicky

there >.> gl anyone trying it with dis chop instead of mend ailment

Mantra of Persistance only works on Illusion hexes. Ignorance is Domination.

Mantra of Persistance isn't an anti-interrupt stance. It causes your Illusion hexes to last longer.

good luck with casting then. and also, they will fall before sunreach will, if your lucky youll have some casters or rangers left that manage to survive for osme time. aggroing all would only work with the sliver armor method, but i doubt you were referring to that, as it was posted after yours.

Believe it or not but Sunreach IS solo-able (if that's a word) with the basic Spirit Bond build with Sliver Armor and high enough divine favor for Spell Breaker. Sometimes it ticks me off because Sliver Armor doesn't target Sunreach half the time. I did test it and managed to kill Sunreach 50% of the time but he hasn't dropped for me yet.

me and my buddy were able to solo with warriors (though not very efficient...) so we run dual with a warrior and necro. makes the run a quick 5 mins or so. total pwnage.

oh yeah, and this is without CHEATING by using the priests.
