It can take a little practice. Glad ya figured it out.
Mistical miss
I usually kill one group of am fah up there 
to stop the farming code (I think it kicks in if u kill many bosses in a row only, without killing others)
Then I lure lou towards the res shrine, so if I die I can get back to him while hes still on low hitpoints.
Well done Tark, time for you to try stonereaper and milthuran

If you fail to kill Milthuran you need to be shot 
If theres no warrior in his group you can just ignore them completey and kill him first. Good for Cloth though Outcasts.
Whats the drop-rate on Jayne Forestlight? The stingy git never seems to drop anything good, not to mention always been on the other side of the group to where i am!
Also woohoo, a 4th Ritual Lord Staff, 174k from them now.
Its possible to farm the Trappers Focus Yeti boss too (Mount Qinkai, right of Aspenwood). Bring Distracting Shot for Healing Signet, kill all the yetis on the way (only 2 groups). Kill off his warrior friend, regen, run in and kill his other friends, run off and regen. Go back for the boss, he himself is a pushover. Just make sure to avoid his Vipers Nests, they hit for 136 damage + Poison. It could be possible to farm the other Yeti boss up there (Ritualist), but the huge number of trappers and rits make luring them out extremely hard, specially as they're on a hill.

http://files.filefront.com/ChkkrIron.../fileinfo.html I can't seem to replicate your results in that video very often. Aggro management becomes a large pain in the ass if your arrival is mis-timed (ie: right as you get to Ironclaw, he should be fighting the wardens already or you mis-timed). If you mis-timed your arrival, which is something very easily missed(though you timed it perfectly in the vid), then it's nigh impossible to pull the larger(not the smaller) group of warden and Chkkr's group back together from 2 screens away without dying.
Once I do manage to pull them together, there's still nothing I can do to take out their mender. As soon as I even go near any of the mantis casters, ALL the mantis creeps ignore the wardens and focus on me. The wardens, being ignored, also then proceeds to focus on me. Needless to say, I die very fast with -10 degen and periodical knockdowns. I don't know if this is a side-effect of the patch or not.
I've attempted this run about 15 times with my ranger tonight, and I've only been able to correctly time it once. All the other times I end up with some Oni spawning along the way, or some patrols in the wrong place, deterring my progress and thus throwing off my arrival time.
The one time that I did get Chkkr down to himself, I couldn't take him out by copying exactly wot you did in the video. For some reason he only used sig once in the vid you made. Whereas for me he used it like a madman. Yes I did use distracting shot to disable it for 20 seconds. But 20 seconds is not enough to kill him. In the vid you took ~35 seconds to kill him after hitting him with distracting shot; but for you, he didn't use heal sig again even after it was no longer disabled. When I hit him with distracting shot, he uses it as soon as it recharges O_o....
Do you have any tips to make this run more reliable?
Mistical miss
I can give u some hints
Tip#1, don't hurry, just take out the onis u meet on ur way there
Tip#2, when they are not fighting, first run around to catch an oni (you don't want to get one on you in the middle of battle) either kill him yourself or let chkkr ironclaw deal with it.
Tip#3, don't lure all the wardens, use the first group to take out the mender, this is done by first getting chkkr ironclaw, then walking into the wardens, then dodging away(so u dont get all the mantids on ur tail and they start fighting the wardens). Then return to the mender and just spam touches until hes dead, move off again after.
By now chkkrs group will have killed the wardens, proceed by luring him into another group of wardens, keep watching chkkr health, if he gets into trouble, save him. Just kill the mantids (and the warden of the seasons/summer, if you have to).
Tip#4, Fighting Chkkr Ironclaw's leftovers, after dealing with the leftover mantids (do it as in the video, lightning reflexes into whirling defense -> dodge, and do it again on another target once your energy and stances are reloaded)
Tip#5, Killing Chkkr Ironclaw, you might do best by first practising once, to see how many touches he needs to cast healing signet (which is usually 6) and have distracting shot ready. Immediately after you have distracting shotted him, switch to your energy sword/axe + blood knife, SPAM touches and Oob, keep touching, never stop, don't have a down time, when running out of energy, second set Oob, keep spamming touches, never ever wait for energy to reload. It works like this, once chkkr ironclaw goes down to the lowest of life, he will stop using healing signet (as it has a risico factor -40 armor). So get him down to low health as quickly as you can.
Tip#6, If you can't work it out like the above, you can distract his first healing signet, touch him with your bow, count the 20 seconds +4 seconds base recharge, and be ready to interrupt his second healing signet as well, from then spam touches like mad, it will be easy to get him down low enough then.
Dying once is hurtful but doable, dying twice makes it very hard, as then you won't have enough energy to freely spam him down to low life where he stops using healing signet. At 60% dp, lure him to the shrine, distract his fist healing signet, touch touch touch touch touch (die cuz of a random hit) when u revive, have distracting shot ready
interrupt his second healing signet, touch touch touch touch death, repeat cycle until hes dead.
I hope this helped! Thanks for watching the video

as for the aggro problem, once you pull Chkkr into the wardens, do you dodge into the wardens, or away from both wardens and chkkr? I've attempted the latter many times only to have Chkkr + Mantis on my tail when I try to sneak up on the Mender. If I do the former, well....I run into the other Warden group.
Thanks for replying! =)
nectuss
I don't think that hes a new boss. He has been there a while now...
Mistical miss
I first walk into the warden group, make sure they attack eachother, then dodge out. (to break aggro from both groups) It should work out ok, if you have the mantids aggro circle in the wardens aggro circle.
Juicey Shake
I didn't want to post this until I actually killed him, but I keep messing up due to not being on my main computer and this one randomly having a 1s lag on skill activation.. sooo, here's a boss I was toying with, pretty obvious how to kill him if you stay for 1 cycle of patrol patterns.
Mohby Windbeak
MESMER boss~...
he has no attached mob, is easy to pull out, but be careful of patrols.
2 spots you can pull him to, one towards jacqui but not in line with the patrol that comes up that way [or just kill that one..] or up near the wave bluff but 2-3 patrols come really close so you want to be careful with that too [both mobs easily killed, tho]
he's not attached to any group so pulling is not a problem.
enjoy, sad I couldn't get the first r/n kill on him
oh well.

Hey there...I really like this build...works really well...I have one question. I might sound a little greedy but I'm in need of money. Which boss would you say, is the best one/s to kill for a quick buck?
Mistical miss
money/run average? Ironclaw is worth pretty much run isn't all that long, you could make prettygood profit out of it, if you get a bit lucky (or u do many of them and get nothing...)
The ritual lord, is good money making too.
Jayne can drop 2 items, always good... vera is actually worth something too.
For quick runs u can do the stonereaper/stoneweaver run, or milthurans. The chkkrs are really quick runs too (locust lord and 1000 tails). If you get really lucky, ghial is a one shot big money maker.

My guess is either Milthuran (since you can run in and out till he's holding a staff), Ritual Lord (easy kill, very expensive staff) or Jayne (again easy kill, never got the Hammer though ).

Elithramir
Ok, first of all, thanks to everyone that has contributed info in this thread, I love the idea of soloing all these bosses. Unfortunately, right now it is mostly an idea for me (I have done Ghial a couple of times, he was super easy). My next target was Lou, and found him I have... but I haven't been able to kill him. 
My skill bar is the standard with the a Sig of Agony. I'm using a Totem Axe and a Crystal Desert blood offhand (+27e, -1e regen). The problem is I just can't kill him.. so I am thinking that I am using this build incorrectly (obviously) and I'd like to solicit some expert advice.
I typically start off with Throw Dirt, then start hitting the Vamp touches. When I get to about 45ish e, I hit OoB, and continue touch. When Blind wears off I hit Whirling Defense and continue Vamp touch. I also squeeze in a Sig of Agony and Plague Touch somewhere in there. So after spamming all of this, I end up with 0 e and he's only between 1/2-1/3 health remaining. So what to do I do at this point? I usually stand there and get hit, or maybe run around like a crazy person in circles around him, but even if I get a couple more OoB's his Shadow Refuge heals him quite a bit. I can't seem to do it spamming the vamp touches.
So, should I be a little more structured in the skill uses? While I was typing this, I was thinking should I just sit and regen e while I have WD and Throw dirt on him and also use Sig of Ag and PT to make sure that he is taking some damage; then when I don't have a Blind on him or WD I will spam the touches?? I'm sort of grasping at straws. Ghial was soooo much easier; I know I'm doing something wrong and there is something that I just don't get about how to use this....
Please help!!
Thanks everyone!!

Get yourself a normal blood focus without the - energy regeneration, so you have better regeneration before you go down to 0 energy, then switch to your +27 energy blood focus. Lightning reflexes + whirling defense + throw dirt can keep him from damaging you forever, unless he gets lucky (which he obviously does). Typically you start with throw dirt, touch a few times, OoB , touch some more, whirling defense, touch some, OoB (on cooldown), touch some more, Oob, touch some more, lightning reflexes, touch some, OoB, throw dirt,,, repeat
when u run out of energy ( you will) switch to your + 27 energy focus to use Offering of blood, then switch back to your first set for more regeneration and a touch or 2, then switch back to your 27 energy set again, for some touches and another Offering of blood.... I have explained it too often in this thread, try looking for my longer posts, it should be in there somewhere, a detailed description of using energy efficiently.

Thanks for the reply!
I had read your posts about the weapon swapping and energy management, but I wasn't sure if the problems I was having were that simple. I'm new to all of this so, like I said before, I just wanted to check with the experts that I wasn't doing something completely stupid; just sort of stupid.
I'm going to get the new weapons and give it a try! Thank again!
Update:
I just killed him!! It was very easy, now that I had the perspective that it was simply a matter of energy management: I had to be able to keep up constant, but not necessarily fast, pressure on him. Interestingly enough, I used the regular focus more than the -E regen focus for most of the fight.
Thanks again for the help.
One last update:
For all the people that are starting out, I just had a very painful education as to how important the Sup Expertise rune is. I had switch out some armor to run a mission, and only had on Minor Expertise and was constantly running out of energy. So don't try to skimp and save some money, get that rune!

Wing, Three Blades in Budbek(sp?) Byway. Pretty easy, though I'd give it a medium because you have to either use NPC manipulation down the hill, or kill his allies off one at a time. You MUST bring Dist. Shot to interrupt his heal sig. I got two axes in four runs....
Mistical miss
Yay, an add again , distr shot for the win! For flower spiritspeak, I run savage shot too ^^ (interrupt two spirits).
As for now, I'm on a 2,5 week holiday to poland, good luck to all you new touchers, and when I'm back I expect that we have killed every boss atleast once (ok maybe not sunreach)

I killed this boss so many times, but no drops at all
At the beginning, I did it with the help of Luxon NPCs, nothing.
So I started to think that the NPC could steal the drops, and I did several killings outside the NPC range (more difficult, sometimes I died, ressed and continued until I killed him), nothing again.
Then I read that Milthuran drops the staff if he has it equipped, so I started to go in and out of Aurios Mines, but he always had the blade equipped.
After 10 times of this, I killed him again and received the antifarming message, 1st time I have ever seen in 14 months of play.
Any tip to deal with this idiot boss?
Btw, I tried Ghial and the boss itself is extremely easy, the run too, it only requires time, I think at least 15 min. each killing.

Ghial is only easy if you remember to bring an interrupt.... I forgot the first time. Spent 15 minutes running back and forth trying to lure the Golem away when it died so he wouldn't reanimate it.
Milthuran almost always has a rod with him, if you go closer he always charges at you with a sword... but at first he usually wands you. You could use the same idea to see if Rajazan has his sword. Watch the damage he deals to you, if it seems to be alot lower on 1 run its proably his sword (due to the cold damage).

I didn't use interrupts on Ghial, simply when I killed the 2 warriors on the bridge and some of his crew (pulling them far away from the boss) I just waited that the corpses disappeared.
Then pulled Ghial, that followed me alone or with only one other enemy, and focused on the boss. I used life siphon to counter faintheartness and cancel the boss regeneration.
Will try again with Milthuran, hopefully I'll have better luck ...

Wipe the guards out with his group. Just don't help them, or not much. Should be pretty straightforward to get them all dead, which gives you more room. This is a good candidate for interrupts probably, though I never bothered. See ^^ for some interrupting ideas.
Dreikki
Now I managed to wipe out all the npcs in the area but he just recasts the spirits right after he has left from their range. And Tark, you're wrong.

If this is vs. Lou, then I have two basic tricks that I learned but failed to mention before now because I have been somewhat busy of late.Tricks vs Lou, of the Knives: He uses a blind. As the second (ish) attack. If you vamp first, you can plague touch it right back on him. Don't stance while he's blind. If it's not Lou, then let me know what you're talking about. X Tark X
well when I brought wing three blade to guards I got his axe so....I guess I am right...?
