I came.

The sr debate aside, because I am one of the few who still thinks melee toons with high defense can still be good(zone setting only). Your build must be god awful if you are only at 45 def with 5 sets of tod. You can pretty much soft cap in pve with 1 io and 1 bonus for each postion if you build right. Did you skip the passives or something? If you did not only are you not getting all the defense you can you are also missing a ton of def debuff res and scalling resistance, which will make alot of difference in survivabilty. Maybe I will bring my bs sr over to freedom for chuckles.

How about you follow alt's posting and realize they are self righteous and indignant about 99% of the time? But seeing you made me post again lets see what I can do for you.


wrong, it was planned from pre beta. You can look up the youtube of it.




clueless and wrong. The arena was packed on test and on release. Unfortunately pvp had several huge imbalances that took far long to address and most players lost interest.




It was far more than slight. Literally every server had at least one zone if not 2 that were always busy.

I will catch this all at once. A great many things were added to pvp since it was released to draw more pvpers in. From temp powers in zones to pvpos. The problem is this truly is a pvecentric game. And the only way for them to ever add more players is to remarket the game to a different crowd. And even the time for that has probably passed. AS for people losing or 'getting farmed' by experienced pvper, it still happens, wil always happen. Its the nature of all pvp. Their only real hope is to invest the time to get better, there is no changes that can be made within the game engine to fix those differences.


This all the eu dudes are asking for. And it makes complete sense. Therefore it is incredibly unlikely to happen. I will catch my other point on this in a second.




The biggest issue is any group that has got together to promote pvp has literally been **** on by the devs. Intentional or ignorant that's what happened. Don't believe me ask any test pvper or any old pvpec rep. Neither of those groups had much love for each other but they both caught the same shaft. Until they stop punishing people who volunteer their recreation time there is honestly no point in trying.




The biggest pvp turnout in the history of this game was the rv event on test to try it out. Some of the reasons it was so successful, lots of people, free toons to play, a very friendly and relaxed atmosphere. With ae they gave us free toons. With free transfers they made the beast that is freedom pvp into an even bigger beast. AS far as atmosphere, I am a firm believer in you get what you give. Probably two of the bigger dicks both in game and on the forums are barrier and myself. But if you're starting and not dick we are both incredibly helpful. Sorry to ruin anyone's illusions about all pvpers being ********.



I have said this in other threads, I will say it again and often. If you need to coddled to pvp, then pvp probably is not for you.





That is not the entire story. The person who brought it to the forums was a know trouble maker and embellished the story a bit. And while yes it was a tough situation even you have to admit it was a pretty isolated ordeal. And sometimes people will have bad first exposure to new things. I hardly think that would make it a pvp issues. Also of note, the poeple who were farming were not pvpers.





Did I mention self righteous and indignant. Yeah, thought so. Now really, stay out of my pvp section.



tl;dr 2 ur fasez.


Why did I lol when one of the options for spell checker on pvper was popper. Damn funny stuff right there.

Never claimed to be good, but at least I know retarded rules are retarded.

Just throwing this back out there. Really, stop worrying about stalkers. Especially if you are a team. Seriously.

Force bubble is way better for seeing stalkers.

heh





To the op, if you are stuck on wanting to play melee roll up the fire regen. As for stalkers don't worry about them. Work on your movement and they are pretty much no worries.


You can make your ice tank pretty viable as a zone toon. Any melee that is played well and built well is a tough kill in zones. Sadly though this leads people into thinking they are pvp gods. Please try to avoid falling into that trap.


I also recommend rolling up some ranged toons to try to give that a shot. Blasters and corrs are very good with a relatively low entry level. If you feel like putting some more time and effort in doms can be very rewarding as well.

lies.
