    Best build is of course subjective, what is it exactly you want to do?

    Edit to clarify: What kind of PvP do you want to engage in?

    the fact that mod 08 did not go ..."HAHAHAHOMG HAHAHA BATTLE AXE"

    says a lot.


    i would not put a penny into a ba/wp build for pvp - pve it up and save your money for a good pvp toon you will get enjoyment out of .

    And even with force of nature on I would get killed
    Sure it took more shots

    Anyway the thing I was thinking about was powerboost as a self speedboost for quick get away or running down the guy trying to escape with his last few hit points

    pff is your friend paired with phase you need need to carry greens so you can hit pff and pop greens - temp invul as well...get the wb temp phase maybe go to sc get a temp jaunt and you should have a few escape routes - also team...
  3. are you running in windowed mode? try full screen. (your desktop resolution)
  4. 64 bit is just fine - I run coh on win7 ultimate 64 no problems.

    SLI and Issue 19

    actually mystery solved... it appears that sli for whatever reason (nvidia or coh) only seems to "work" in full screen. If you run windowed mode, which I do..or well..did...it causes the frame rates to bottom out.
  6. I have 470 gtx sli and with sli enabled - i get 1-5 fps it's terrible. If I disable sli it runs just fine - I have tried alternate frame rendering 1 and 2 and nothing it still is crap.

    SLI and Issue 19

    i'm going to call cop out - every other game I have that supports sli runs gangbusters. I updated after i19 when I heard it was actually running sli - there had to be some code changes on both ends.


    Since the forum is not rampant with "sli broke" posts I can only guess it affects newer gtx

    SLI and Issue 19

    Ever since issue 19 my sli 480 gtx run slow as a snail in coh - I have to turn sli off - I tried af1 and af2 in sli neither on fixed it.
  9. hmm yah with fitness being inherant you can use the medicine pool too to boost either your hp, range+recharge - either way libs is good, yours are pretty good - anything with close to caped hp and 50-70% recharge
  10. if you got the money for #2 then go for it. I hear i19 is close to open beta so it maybe in a month it will go live - they should give a freespec out so it would not be to hard to rework #2 -

    #1 is very good too but low on recharge - although not a huge problem if you are looking at teaming or doing team arena.
  11. if you plan on zone then I would take emp arrow as it is not as bad as a full end crash power and it a ****** to the targets...
  12. actually - an emp is superior to a pain dom in every way in 8v8. Two good emps on a team can counter a three blaster spike anyday. 5 and you are racing against kills. AB > Painbringer (+100% recharge over 50% dmg boost) and pains don't get a fort like power (power boosted +too hit and +25% dmg on a troller). Add in the RAs for drive bys and self preservation. That and the dmg to the target on enforced morale is a pain in the butt when people are twitchy about taking dmg.

    as far as wp goes in arena - easy to build + HP + RES - the aura is great for stalkers etc..but you have to manage your heals (greens or pool aid self) - end is not an issue though

    if you really like wp and want a pvp toon try KM/WP scrapper
  13. ice is okay - same for psi on doms - you can focus on single target slot your holds for hold duration (purples since your rich) and immob for duration (ditto) -

    dom psi dmg is sucky compared to blaster psi

    whay psy said for storms - hurricane drops when your sneezed on - although snow storm is a great tool - ice trollers do horrible dmg.
  14. also not sure what level of kb you need anymore in pvp - since powers slotted for kb seem to dr down different than actual kb protection does.

    For example I have tested fully 6 slotted force bolt with kb ios on a def which is the highest mag kb you can get (i think) and it cannot kb a toon with less kb res than the kb mag with dr on.

    and not sure if a hold removed the kb protection from acro or not (anymore).

    What community exists is mostly internally focused, with an elitist air not based on skill, maturity, or really any respectable quality.

    One particular figure is a narcissistic, pathological liar with anger issues that seem to have exposed intense gay fantasies occasionally on Vent.

    Either way, like I said. Temporary.
    I resent the word intense...just because I happen to think AL Roker is a very handsome man does not mea...oh wait you're not talking about me...

    They'd had to charge at least that much for a booster, cause they sure as hell ain't gonna get alot of pvpers who buy it, seeing as how there aren't that many pvpers left.

    all they have to do it put a new animated cat tail in it or a hat and the pvers would buy it. maybe em/sendfruitbasket.

The fact of the matter is that lots of people have some insight about how to make PvP better which "could" have helped this game. And then on that same token they might have some not so good ideas as they may not have played something enough to have full knowledge of certain aspects of the system they are championing to improve.

    The PvE'rs have different demands much more tangible like costumes and emotes and other stuff whereas PvP'rs for the most part wanted something challenging but logical and thats why the ones mainly left are the ones that like the easy toons for PvP because some things make no sense as it is. PvP'rs are much harder to please and if the ones working on the system have no interest and play experience in the subject they want to change then it comes off real ugly. But PvP'rs for the most part could provide the most loyal customers because if they actually got the system right it would be so much more fun killing someones favorite toon for the billionth time than it is to kill Statesman for the billionth time, and getting killed for the billionth time I would hope that would inspire them to devote more time to the game to get better (unless you're divine).

    The problem is that Paragons filter broke when dealing with the resounding criticisms of most of the implementations back with i13. Things were busted about the old PvP sure so a change could have been necessary but the problem is the filter broke and their calm got damaged when they are the ones that should be soliciting ideas for the betterment of their business, not turning their backs on what now would amount to a rather large portion of customers and continuing to sweep the dead bodies under the rug.

    THe problem is they made a commitment to pvp in print including all issues going forward from i13 and promised to change things that didn't work, fix what was broken and renew focus on it. It's ego plain and simple that leaves us stuck with i13. The developers refuse to acknowledge it was a total failure, refuse to change it and continue to beleive they know better than we do.

    we should send them fruit baskets like the pvers do - then maybe we would get something.

    The last time a dev showed up in game for pvp annouced they got so badly trashed several people got temp bans, and then we were scolded and told "this is why they don't care about pvp". We forgot to worship them.
