OK bye.

I'd say sad to see you go, but I think both parties were in the wrong.

we can probably field 8 at some point.

I meant vs Retribution.

But a Union -vs- Defiant on Test would be hilarious!

Well, there is the Brighton Meet; if you Deviants want to be thrashed again

Plight's fault.

And sure, we're game for a TF race. Numina sound good?

Anyway, err, basically, farmers are bad!

I think another fight's in order.

How about a 7v7?

Grats.

Fight me in the Arena.

Can you add:

Frozen Electrum - Ice/Elec/Elec Blaster
Silmaris - Katana/Dark Armour/Body Mastery
Artemesia - Fire/Kin/Fire Controller

Kill the Empath? TK the buffed opponent, det field, sonic cage, black hole, dimension shift?

Defiant was rumoured to be the unofficial PvP server, except theres more PvP on Union.

[/ QUOTE ]
Yeah, we pwned Defiant too hard.

To be fair, from what I've seen Defiant has a better level of PvP, skill wise, than Union, though Union wins out on there being more PvP in general.

Most of my toons are squishies and I've never had massive issues with EM Stun's.

Even Solo in the Zones, use BF's, a team with support (shock horror) and in Sirens, you can pick up strength of wills.

meh everytime i have to point out we cant all get people to come at the drop of a hat (in responce to the 'support' bit)

BF's understandable, but the amount u have to burn to even think of having a go @ 'said' enemy means u aint got room for any others.

load of ballz tbh pvp is in CoH, they're isn't one good thing that comes out of it

Then stop posting, I mean, I could understand if your drivel was constructive, but it really isn't from what I can see. I mean, why are you even still here, you've made it quite clear in the past that you don't actually like the game any more, and you seem to "quit" every other month.

Fact is there are numerous counters to Energy Melee's stuns, just as there are counters to Holds, TK etc... This is a team based game so PvP is balanced for a team situation.

Whining that a damage set gives you issue solo, on a squishy, in PvP won't really get you anywhere.

Everything else is underpowered in comparison to EM? Doesn't mean that EM is the problem.

Most of my toons are squishies and I've never had massive issues with EM Stun's.

Oh dear, people are using a set to it's fullest.

I fail to see how this is an issue other than the fact that other Melee Sets aren't performing as proficiently.

Sure, go for it. Don't think it'll end to well though.

Hahaha, Scrappers.

Nope.

No, I know it's naff. Using a Tank/Emp combination to deal with Freakshow on the 'Dreck' map is highly ineffiecient compared to other combinations.

You simply can't kill as fast and those that Rez can complicate matters.

Your hilarious...

And you're stuck in an Issue3 mindset.

No, really, it is. And using Tanks is all wrong, too.

I like how he says he got PL'd a lot in Dreck.

Makes me laugh, because it's such a bad powerlevelling mission.

Exactly.

Equality through buffs plix!

I believe the problem, if there is one, remains with Power Boost.

[/ QUOTE ]

Aye.

To be fair, the biggest and best reason to go /Energy is the self buffs. Powerboost and Boost Range, and of course Conserve to a lesser extent.

[/ QUOTE ]

The discussion was about the prevalence of EM stalkers, brutes and tankers too..

[/ QUOTE ]

In the OP's post and some of those replies, yes.

But I'm discussing the Blaster version right now.

I think they should reduce the stuns chance of the powers it's too great. Makes it a pain playing a squishy. What do you guys think of this.

[/ QUOTE ]

Agreed.

I don't think you'll get much support, though. There's two kinds of pvpers, the ones looking for a challenge and the ones looking for easy wins. The best "easy win" AT (controllers) just got nerfed, so those pvpers moved on to their beloved ice/nrj and fire/nrj blasters (or EM/ stalkers, brutes, tankers), I doubt you'll be liked for suggesting a EM nerf, especially by those who loathe PVE and don't want to level another toon to "pwn nubz".

[/ QUOTE ]

Funny, I see two sides of PvP'ers. Those that want set equality through tweaks and buffs, so each set performs as well as the others, albeit in slightly different ways, and those that (stupidly imo) want everything they personally have trouble against Nerfed.

I'm guessing you're one of the latter, eh?

What I meant was that you could craft an Insp or Enh store that'll hold 200, then 300, instead of just 100.

Much in the same way you can craft better Empowerment Stations.

Not that there's bins that will only store a certain type/tier of Enh/Insp.

i just think it's ridiculous being perma stunned in the zones when i play a squishy. Either buff the other sets or tweak the stuns bonesmasher having a 75% chance to stun is too powerful for me and since when is that long animation time?

[/ QUOTE ]

Long recharge.

Also, how about taking a team or Break Frees?
