No problem man. I enjoy playing around with builds and things like that. It wouldn't be hard to swap some powers around just tried to get you what you wanted in before 30 for sirens.

Ok, quick build I did. Ignore all of the slotting numbers i've literally just put them in as I was thinking them now in any logical order.

You've said this is for pvp so i've tried to give you everything you wanted. All the powers you've asked for you get before lvl30 so in use for sirens. Could've chosen better primary attacks but I haven't used elec/* before so someone else may be able to give you better choices or slotting.
I've overloaded you for accuracy so that you should be able to hit almost anything and penetrate a PFF whilst using aim+buildup.
All your toggles (sooo many you wanted :P) are slotted with end red so that once you get attacking (assuming solo) you should have more end available to you. They can be re-slotted if you find the end you drain through your attacks is enough to sustain you. Like I said, i've little experience with the electric primary.
Slotting Reasons.
Lightning Bolt, Ball Lightning, Ice Sword and Zapp are quite obvious for a pvp build.
Chilblain is slotted for use as a control power as I know how annoying -recharge is even with hasten.
Swift is 3 slotted so that as a blaster if you're held etc you can run away quicker without the need for sprint (free space on trays). Also negates the slow from stealth.
Chilling embrace is to interrupt a stalkers AS and again the -recharge.
SJ is your travel power, may as well have it as good as possible if you need to chase/out run.
Health is 3 slotted as I had some spare slots available. Plus more regen is good.
Assault, Tactics and Acrobatics just end red to help with end recovery.
Build up and Aim have more recharge slots to compensate for lack of hasten. 2 THB's for added +acc
Tesla Cage was a confusing one for me but it looks like a very good hold. Hense slotted for accuracy and hold duration. The other 2 slots are interchangable. 2 recharge may well be better.
Shiver is your basic opener. -rechage again (you'll be really annoying some people by now ) and slow. Also a range for obvious reasons as a blaster.
Freezing touch is your melee hold if they get too close. I have this power on Organi and I find it very useful and powerful.
Shocking bolt is another hold (mag1 i think, tesla is mag3). But it has very good damage available and would be a good addition to your attack chain, however its recharge is quite bad.
Invisibility not included upto now because I couldn't see many places to put it. However it should serve you well particulary for getting the first strike.
Charged Armor is slotted as I had spare slots and gives you about 20% res to smashing,lethal and energy which is pretty good.
I wasn't going to include Thunderous Blast at all considering you said this was a pvp build, but I just couldn't bring myself to make a blaster build without the nuke power. Can take it out if you find a better power, you shouldn't have trouble modifying the build to find some slots.
Hope this is ok, i'm gonna go to bed now :/ -
I think its expectations. When you race towards 50 you will probably team with a peace or war at some point. And you'll see them at higher and higher levels probably played well (if they got that far). The problem is that this is then the only experience many have of this AT and as such believe it will begin as this ultra tanking, blasting machine, changing forms all over the place. Truth is this isn't the case when you start and isn't for a while. Plus slots are annoyingly short if you choose forms :/
-
According to hero builder 1 damres in upstoppable caps and then some.
I think you've also slotted defences same as my tanker so you should end up with about:
66% smashing/lethal
27% (i think) F/C/E/N
Toxic I can't remember
No psi
With just passives + Unstoppable hero builder says:
97.9% against all (cept psi)
With all toggles + passives + Unstoppable:
153% smashing/lethal
113.6% all else (cept psi)
That's with 1 dam res in upstoppable.
As you can see, easily past the cap and still good for pvp with -res buffs. Your status protection will be off the chart as Unyielding + Upstoppable. And since unstoppable is a click you wont be toggle dropped. Just my thoughts. -
bonfire? why oh why? you want groups together for AoE not apart :P

[censored]! I can move around as much as I wish, but if I happen to be within range of a hidden Stalker for the splitsecond it takes them to initiate the AS attack, the AS hits me.

A good point. and oh how i hate it -
I have to agree. Stalkers are a very easy pick up and play AT and it does not take long to get "good" at them. They are also, imo, the easiest AT to get a pvp rep in.
However, they do have much more potential than that and I know some very good stalkers. These ones I respect because they use the AT much more than it basic, first look uses.
My pet hate though is when a "good" stalker comes along and thinks they're some god of pvp because they can hit build up, AS, placate, attack. -

I used PFF in PvP but probably as it's intended - "oh [censored] a Scrapper has gone meieval on my [censored] and I'm losing HP's like water!"
Then I pop on PFF. And as soon as he gives up and realises he's wiffing against me, I drop it again to start Force Bolting again!
Just going to be a bit hairy without that ten second recharge in future and a trick I really can pull only once...
[/ QUOTE ]
you're one of the few hehe.
And i'm happy thats happening tbh. Every /FF MM i've seen doesn't attack at all. Just stay in the bubble and use their pets. (it is fun however to then kill all the pets and watch them try to rebuild hehe). But I basically thought PFF was overpowered so glad this is happening. Then again it won't make much difference to those who enter the zone and don't turn it off but meh. -
Not sure how relavent this is but the bar in sirens represents the battles won/lost ratio: red vs blue
am i correct?
If so, what is the Sirens call control all about? because i've seen the villians blue bar totally in control over heroes yet it says that the control is still heros??? (i may have totally missed the point of this post somehow im not sure) just something I was interested to know. -
If you want to take people around the hollows and whatnot you'd probably be better with team tele for a number of practical reasons rather than what you want.
Group fly is good and you're right in that many players want to fly because when you think superhero, flying is one of the first things many people think of. But with group fly the other players need to fly with you and can you imagine what trouble and hassle you'd have with players flying in the other direction and landing in the gultch :/ i'd just say team tele because as long as you get everyone around you at the start you can take everyone from one place to another with less hassle or chance of losing someone. But your choice. -
I like it personally. Nice break between fights to throw some talk this way and that. Me and Stalk-o-bot like to do that quite a bit hehe. The only time I've lashed out on broadcast has been by accident because if I'm angry due to whatever (usually multiple stalker kills within a short space of time) I usually type what im going to say to them and put it in a different channel, either a private one or the team channel. I make sure my teammates know what i'm going to say is to be ignored. As I say the only time that went wrong was when I thought my default channel was team, typed out my bit and pressed enter only to find I'd set default channel to broadcast :/ oops. Also I agree with the point about not trash talking to someone new, or someone new to pvp or at least with limits. As it's been said you can say something to your best friend and get a laugh whereas to a stranger may result in a hospital trip.

Not sure my opinion about stalkers really. (as a start, yes i have played one). Someones comment about they're defences I think is totally wrong as they have more defence than every AT except Tanks, Brutes and Scrappers (not sure about khieldian tank form figures). Stalk-o-bot is annoying with his "fly above you + impale + land + AS" although did get him a couple of times last night when he tried that with aim+buildup+snipe hehe. The 4-way AS strike on me was....a little annoying :/ so i went to sit on a roof for a while and calm down heh until i was apparently the bounty :/ 2 way AS then.
Stalkers will get nerfed i think, as all AT's do (and this is non dependant on any player opinions not directly emailed imo).
If I had to narrow down why I get annoyed at Stalkers to one statement it would be that it isn't a "fight". A fight would involve me being able to do damage to them but with the damage AS does (when done from hide), i'm only left with a tiny amount of health (sometimes 1 hit) which is easy then to pick off with another attack not least if its Spines - impale. The "not being able to see them" I don't mind because as many have said there are a lot of powers that give +per plus the concealment pool available to make yourself more difficult to attack in the first place (pictures a whole pvp zone full of invisible people.....WOW THE ACTION!). Hmmm well I just walked away from the computer and have come back and completely lost where I was going with this :/ so i'll leave it there. -
nice one tiger tan. been a pleasure teaming with u =) glad you got the big 5-0

If you need a distraction I find google videos a good one. Try searching for FPS Doug. If you've ever played CS or any online FPS you'll probably find it funny. Or search for WoW Leeroy Jentkins

I'm glad that I read this thread now. I didn't know that heroes and villians could pvp in the arena. No more duelling for me
