If it's just to show you can do it, shm with puppet strings and fd ring and clickies could. Though, i think this is one of those few camps that is most streamlined in a good group as opposed to duo/trio...really want shm/bard/enc for ease of debuff to land slow, pretty easy after that.

dont forget the rogue! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Yep, just stressing that you really want all debuffs before slow, kind of like going after tranala/travala. If the rng is bad you can have a pretty tough time of it without tash/oos/malo. Ideal setup probably something like enc/brd/shm/rog/tank/cleric. Might seem like overkill when you do it, but do it without and the pace of clearing can slow down considerably if you get a bunch of wurms in a row and bad rng on slow.

*cast tash*.. uh yea!

then the sham being like, "ah yea there we go."

really drove home how without tash, these things can be basically spell immune.. Literatly every time I forget to tash the sham would be like HEY WTF?!

and id be like "Lol these guys are resistant! Had it tashed but I just recast once again just incase 'for good measure'..." (aka i forgot again lmao)

what Im saying here is, without tash, you're not going to land any debuffs on these guys before he eats whatever is tanking him

used to trio these w/ bard, war, shm. I would pull with my bard to BW zoneline, zone off aggro and let warrior pull the wurm (so other mobs from VP entrance would wander back). he would then kite it until me and shm zoned back in and we would keep kiting it until shm's slow landed. pretty easy kill from there and not too difficult once spawns were broken up.

I think this is a duo strat that would work just fine. But gdi thats a long run just to remove 1 roll on a topor drop hah

Duo'd with Epic Mage/Cleric before Donal's nerf

Was a crapshoot though, couple max rounds and pet wouldn't make it

Haha I didn't take time to post. I think you also forgot pre inviz pull nerf.
I don't think it could have been farmed by that duo even if it was possible!

Even assuming the wurm was single pulled and you had unlimited room, I really doubt anyone (with Velious gear) could solo a guardian wurm, even with the right clickies and gear. Shaman won't be able to slow without tash, enchanters can't slow without malo, and no way any melee would stay alive against them. Maybe a shaman with a real lucky proc of tash right off the bat, then kiting it while debuffs land would work.

Honestly, the best chance is probably monk or warrior with lots of clicky heals, but even that I doubt is doable. Even though they only have 32k hp and double, they hit fast and hard.
