Is it? Can you link me as got my various teams levelling up toons .

Here .

A bit annoying really, was looking forward to bantam, but I guess not many people signed up officially. Guess that's the issue with running things like sign ups on another forum. :\

My Stalker can two shot a squishy in Sirens without AS. That's hideously underpowered, buff please.

Stalkers are really usefull in PvP in my opinion, with a lot of strong points, unless you're fighting an unsupressed team that also has ranged damage.

What it sounds like to me is that you've come up against Empath/Sonic heavy teams that are stacking the +Perception. Find yourself a Therm, Cold or Sonic Corrupter and grab Stealth from the Stealth Pool and you'll do much better. Especially if the corrupter also has Grant Invis.

I'm not trying to pick on you personally but this is a false idea of PVP. Devs have repeatedly since Issue 4 (um what, 1,5 years ago?) said that PVP in this game is balanced for TEAM pvp.

[/ QUOTE ]

but didn't States also mention that players shouldn't be forced to team up to enjoy features such as PvP and other recent additions. Imagine how many people would be up in arms if Inventions only dropped when teamed...

Originally I also wanted more balance in 1v1 combat. I got over it by banging my head to the wall long enough.

Well at least one person understands the frustration, I think I'll just avoid PvP in future where possible rather than have to suffer gimping my PvE style with a PvP respec, or having to roll a new Char altogether.

You don't have to team in PvP to enjoy PvP or do well in PvP. However, if you want to fight a team all by your lonesome and expect to have a fair chance you are dumb. Especially against a team that's heavy in the support side of things.

Also PvE Builds do fine at PvP, they're not as optimal as a PvP build, but you don't need to be a min/max'er to PvP. Thinking that is dumb.

What you did is walk in to a zone, come up against superior numbers that had good teamwork and superior [u]skill[u] at PvP'ing than you and you died. How is that bad? If anything it shows that PvP is balanced, a lone player shouldn't be able to kill a team.

I don't mind admitting I was Hero one in that.

let me sum something up.

You were a level 45 character, hitting a well slotted PvE character who had 3 shields, Magus accolade, stealth slotted for defence and elude and you think you guys aren't overpowered?

[/ QUOTE ]

I've done that solo on my Blaster, who is a HERO. They were teamed, I don't think that's overpowered, I think that's good teamwork. Also slotting Def in Stealth is dumb.

Depends on the situation, a Claws/SR Stalker is a very different beast to say, an MA/Regen Scrapper.

Compared to other things in the game, Sirens isn't anywhere near farmable.

Though Uncommon Salvage'd be good, seeing as Magic stuff is not only pricey but reasonabyl elusive drop wise for a lot of people.

So because I could have say, just a Fire/Stone Brute, an Fire/Ice Tank and a DM/SR Scrapper I wouldn't be able to enter at all? Even though they have reasonably different play styles?

That's bit naff, it's an exclusionary rule. Some people just like melee/non-squishy toons.

Kite the [censored] out of him.

This.

Keep them at range, get in melee when you know you can make the kill and/or get out again safely. As soon as you see/hear TF, pop a BF, run, and get a green or other heal ready.

Thing is, Recall Friend is a pretty common power so if you TP'd this raid, chances are you won't the next.

WOOO. Man that rocked, bit of a slow start, but we got it in the end, went easy as pie once we worked out exactly what to do.

So yeah, mad crazy awesome work guys.

Hasten's great for EM, but if it's a choice of Hasten or good unsurpressed movement, go movement in my opinion.

Unless you want to solo Lusca, yes.

Karma's don't work too good in PvP, Acro's better still.

A Celerity or similar is basically Stealth, so it's incredibly usefull, though I don't think that+Hide+Stealth would quite get you to the cap at 50.

Akin to this thread here, we've just knocked it out in about 1 hour 20 minutes from start to finish.

Anyone else done it yet?

Especially Evil Nictus Keladians?

Why 4 man btw, not 5?

My Controller's are fine. :P

I contest that fact.

It shouldn't be a problem for competent players.

Oh GOD STOP COMPLAINING ABOUT CLEAR MIND.

I can count the Empath's that can keep 3 CM's on an 8man team on one hand.

A lone empath at the [censored] hospital doing nothing but buffing people going out shouldn't be any god damn problem for competent players even if they are playing outside the Hero base.

Jesus.

Edit: This was mostly aimed at MarquandDance and others that are crying for a CM nerf.

The only thing you need to fear with a good tank is when you run off in the other direction and aggro a mob and die in 5 seconds.

Anyway, if they're to buff any Blaster Secondary it needs to be Ice Manipulation and Devices.

in a bit to hopefully get more entrants we are extending the registration date by 2 weeks

[/ QUOTE ]
Then I do believe we can get a team together.

Thing is if they changed CM etc... to not stack from the same caster you'd just find teams with more than one empath/sonic/thermal... oh wait. You already do.

Ahahahaha.

Well with Xan out of action for a week, it'll be a while.

See you Monday for general Fightage!

Just wondering - have you ever played with a PvPer that was good at PvP and bad at PvE?

[/ QUOTE ]
Yes.

Taking bets on who guesses first.
