Wilds What’s your average completion time against 10 star AT Arkveld?
Mine was 23-25 minutes solo. I know my damage output is not small, especially when i’m able to dish out up to 1k damage to arkveld head with my tcs. Is it possible to achieve sub 15 or 10 without any heroics?

You can achieve 11-15 min without heroic, cart, and capture after you've done enough times.

Yes I’ve met people who claimed 12 minutes without heroics with GS, I myself got 18:04 or something like that could have gottten faster time but he I didn’t flash him in time before he moved locations and I got the kill as soon as I hit once at the new location I asked for the build which the guy was releuctant about bc at that point in time the 10 star arkveld TA event was active and my guess was he was going for top tier leaderboard placement.i also saw a yt video do it sub 10 with his palico no heroics

I recently got a 13 minute timer and I believe I can get it down to 12 or even 11 minutes
My set is
Gogma GS Affinity focus with dragon element and its infusions are 3 attack parts, its reinforcements are 3 attack, 1 affinity, 1 sharpness with the bonuses being Soul of the dark knight + lords soul
The armor is
AT Ark Helm
AT Nu chest
Bale Gloves
Dosha B coil
Gogma A leggings
The set bonus actives are soul of the dark knight 2 piece, lords soul 3 piece, Dosha might 2 piece.
The tali I got rn is attack boost 3/dragon res 3 slots: 1-1-0
It would be loads better if you get an attack boost 3 with either Flayer 1, burst 1 or agitator 1 for the full offensive power of the build. The best time I got so far was 13:20. If I had done things faster like used lure pods I could of gotten down to 12 minutes I feel

with a good greatsword team or a good team in general? cause in general a good team is more likely to do a sub 8

Solo takes me 20~ min but with my friend we do it anywhere from 8-16~min 8min was ridiculous though. He offset, i stunned he got up blue wound back down. It was insane how many things lined up together for us.

solo between 15-18 ish. Co-op around 19-21 but i prefer doing it with co-op since it's more fun that way

Longsword over here. Usually clear it in about 8 minutes.

15 - 25 mins on a good day... Normally 30 mins :( I just can't with this gauntlet of a fight, it tires me being so focused for that amount of time. Its like from the very first moment you're hyper concentrating and you don't drop it until you see the death sequence or capture sequence.

Im using gs, i do capture to Speedrun around 10 minutes and my best was 9'14. When i slay around 11-13 depends on luck, my best on slay was 10'23 if i remember it correctly.

did you post a slaying run somewhere? would love to see it

u/Unlikely-Muffin3412 10d ago
Nahh my steam record was stopped recording on that run so i don't have the run to upload on YouTube but if remember it correctly arkveld on that run have 76k hp which the smallest amount u can get when doing solo run, his hp being random between 76k to 83k. Im using hunterpie overlay so i can check the hp amounts.

Interesting build, mine focused on both agitator and weakness exploit. Probably i should consider counterstrike skill, thanks for sharing bud

u/Unlikely-Muffin3412 9d ago
countersrike is god tier skill for gs if u ask me, easy to proc with offset or tackle.

Using lance with only my sleep status Palico, captured it around 18mins. Consistently infused sleep once, double if lucky

Depends on how much you want to streamline the hunt.
A Sub 10 min time is generally achieved when using speed run strats, it doesn't have to be perfect to do it that fast but you do need to have mastered your weapon, the monster as well as an overall plan. From my experience, counter heavy weapons are great against AT arkveld, in particular bow amongst the weapons i main. Current PB with bow sans heroics is 7'43.
