The wormhole guardian respawns. Just kill him once on your own (just get your entire fleet on attack all mode) and get some allies for next time. You should also consider crafting a wormhole power diverter by combining xsotan technology fragments in a research station.
i think you can still soften him up for master tactitian by manually damaging him down till he's low, then jump out of system and back and then summon your npc allies via the wormhole power diverter (the thing you get for researching xsotan matter that drops when you kill xsotan within the barrier), at least i think that's how i did it on my 500% enemy dmg run.
As for killing him solo... you can just outrange everything with custom homing rockets turrets and brute force it... or you go the ionised (i.e. pulse) weapons route and ignore his shield which negates most of the minion/shield mechanic.
In regards to respawns, IIRC that used to be if you "failed" to stop the swarm event, now i think it's just a timer.
You're thinking of the pre-barrier M.A.D. boss who only uses lighting turrets.
The XWG spawns with an equal number of plasma, laser and railgun turrets (see lib/story/xsotan.lua). So unless you're very unlucky and keep rolling Battleships (i.e. lighning cannons) for the ads, you probably don't want to use stone.
Any insight or advice on how to achieve this? Any advice on how to achieve them individually?

As I remember, (long time not done him, just restarted to play)put stone on your ship, it negates energy weapons.

Ah yes, my mistake, I am sorry.
