Solo'ed a lvl 28 cosmic mob... on lvl 29...

Soo, tbh its nice and all that i did, but it really shouldnt be possible, this goes for all bossmobs that exist really, they should have more block interrupt skills or their stuns should not be stopped by my blocks.

(people might say there is another guy on the endscores but the only part he did was all the other steps of the open quest, he wasnt around when i killed the boss, but even then its a cosmic..! isnt that like a 10man boss or atleast 5?!)

Mega-Destroid kills groundwalkers. But he has no regen, his ranged attacks are hurt, and he has no ability to pin you to the ground. So if you have flight and a free hour, you can kill him at like level 22.

If you don't have flight, you can do it the way I did it, though it takes a lot longer. Use Minimines and just kite him in a big circle around the fountain.

i didnt kite him i just stood there and blocked heavy attacks, and i could fight him on the ground but i didnt because he has a knock up attack so that will make me go flying and take falling damage if i dont fly.

also he has 3 stun skills, but if you just pay attention you can block them all, tbh it just shouldnt be possible. only time i almost got killed in a fight vs him is when he chain stunned me and my defensive buff from my shield ran out, because he melees for 3k then if you cant block it.

Ya, at 24 i was able to tank it prety much the whole fight, untill i got held to death. But i dont see how you soloed it haha, we eventualy got 6 more ppl and still just made it by with less then a min >.<

Edit:By tank i ment held aggro*

To kill Mega-Destroid you need:

Regeneration.
A ranged attack.

Useful but not needed:
A Flight variant to avoid melee.
A lingering Block (TK and upgraded Force work well).
Resurgence can cover for the times you screw up.

PEW PEW it until it charges an attack, then block to a) regain endurance and b) avoid most of the damage dealt.

That's all I needed to solo one of the level 40 Mega-Destroids during the End of Beta Event. Took a while, but Mega-Destroids are not good at taking apart an intelligent target that regenerates.

I was able to tank this mob in melee on the ground, however due to his size it's significantly easier to stay at range so you can see what he is doing.

I'm going to have to chalk up your encounter to him being semi-bugged, the mega destroid I fought and tanked actually started using holds on me when he got to around 30% HP. I was able to survive and break them as long as I stayed at range, however I was always on the ground and the mega destroid never tried to engage me in melee (Where it's attacks were pretty powerful, 3k+ hits if I didn't block them).

If the AI had run up to me after holding me it probably would have been a different story.

Do note that the timer has expired already on one of the SS.
It's a glitch that happens sometimes. If, you've got say an hour, then sure you can solo him
But downing him solo within the given timeframe, that's another issue. :p
