With not everybody playing at the time where I'm online, making difficult to assemble a full fighting force. I wonder if there's anybody willing to share their tactics to solo some of the NPC bosses. For example, with a Destroyer-Howitzer mix, I'm able to take down the whole Valk's quest and to consistently beat the last leg of Pandora's Arc 4, but the angels.

So, what's your tactic? How you can beat those level 60 and above by yourself?

Lots of Health Pills, Tactic Boosters and I guess whatever loadout you're good with, but I'd recommend normal MA loads or that hybrid load.

I've had some sucess against Valfreyja with high regen and gun/patcher hybrid load. Just imo it gets too drawn out, there's got to be a more efficient way.. And yes, i have tried shooting/hacking outside of the room, it takes even longer and is very boring.

She has high resists and damage, rolls are okay.

Hacking behind the door gives you a window of opportunity of only 4 attacks, before the door closes and make you lose the target. Therefore, the only way to bring her down is entering the room. The Destroyer-Howitzer mix I use is very efficient against Valfreyja, as long as the debuffs hit at the very beginning and you avoid IL. It's possible, if you start at the opposite end of the room, from her.

I'm happy to walk efficient players through high-level encounters from time to time.

You don't have to lose your target, if you hover your mouse over the door and use tab (I believe that's the default "use" key) the door will open without it becoming your target.

 Live and learn. You're right. Tab key keeps your target behind the doors. Thanks for the tip.

Hit Valfreyja with Disruption Field, Insidious Code and Destroyer.  Interlock her and then just nuke/bomb her down in about 15 seconds.  I've never tried soloing any of the level 60+ NPCs but there are a few techniques to do so I hear.  I just prefer to farm those levels with a friend or two.

I do that, but without the IL, because the nuke/bomb abilities have an accuracy penalty in IL. If you land the debuffs, she's down after the third attack. Of course, if you do it with a friend that distracts her while you land your hacks, the deal is equally done.
