It seems everyone in BB is screaming "dont get me debt!" the second anyway uses the shivan pet power. Afaik shivans dont and have never given debt. Am I wrong? Or does anyone know where this myth came from?

Worth a try but I'm not sure the regen will stop you getting 2 shotted so test is certainly a good idea. I've thought about getting phase shift for the same reason after trying the warburg temp.
Is there ever anyone on the test server, got some ideas i would like to try but no use in an empty zone. I thought about organising a time for people to test new pvp builds but I couldnt see it working out.

I dunno whos silly idea it was to play on relentless, some nooblet with a disco toon or something
Anywho, not sure about the weekend, if thats when it is though I'll try and get on but it depends how quickly i get my "work" finished.

I was just finishing me tea, should be there real soon unless my PC gets struck by lightning, its bucketing down here :S

I'd be very surprised if hover was sped up any to make it bearable. Best thing about going down this route is unsuppressed movement :P

Ok. I have "Johnstone Supernova" parked at burke just now [img]/uk/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Havent tryed it with the brutes but on a scrapper swift + sprint + quickness (from SR) works fairly well, it isnt superspeed, but its pretty good. Unless someone else has tryed it, be worth giving it a go with lightning reflexes + swift + sprint.

If you like I can malefactor and help you catch up when your ready. I'm thinking of trying a dark/inv brute.

If I can find a character slot I have a great idea for a brute I could use.

Anybody who fancy a match with their dominator, search me out from the pvp zones of defiant. [img]/uk/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Against lots of heroes, a buffing corruptor would be a better partner IMO.

I won the costume compo with my ickle dominator [img]/uk/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

The new mezz changes are live. Not sure how long this has been the case though.

What defence does your ninja stalker have? Afaik there isnt any KB protection in the nin set.

I feel I pretty much NEED acrobatics just to compete using a dominator. Its not as great as you have been led to believe though, and my dominator is often out controlled by "melee" AT's which is a very tough one to swallow.

Its a lot easier for a tank to hold a dominator than the other way around.. Dominators need some serious love.

I have more trouble with scrappers than tanks, probably because they can 2 or 3 shot me and often have a range attack too.
I think doms are about right in pve, its only in pvp that I have difficulty. Recently I'm building domination as much for the new mezz protection as the extra hold time and damage. Maybe in pvp domination should rise x per tick you are held/stunned/etc.

I'm ok with new characters. gives me a chance to try something out [img]/uk/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I could malefactor my lvl 31 mind/psi down, although it probably wouldnt take much persuassion to make me roll a new dom to play once or twice a week [img]/uk/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

ps. I wouldnt mind trying some kind of ice or grav.

nin/ta MM and maybe a rad/ice (regen killing) corruptor are 2 builds I'd like to try in the future. I've actually tried the MM briefly and think it could be quite uber later on.
And just last night on my dom, with 2 MM's and a corruptor in the zone, I was asked "are dominators the new FOTM for villains". By a spine/regen as well.

Corruptors are one of the best villian AT's for pvp.
Good damage combined with buffs/debuffs to make more effective use of that damage. Decent survivability through debuffs/self heals, and good team buffs to make other villians more effective (teamed with a sonic and thermal, my dom can almost tank).

Isnt this like saying "targetting drone + tactics is too powerful, nerf tactics and sod everyone else who isnt a dev blaster"? BTW. i dont think tactics needs a nerf, was the only example I could come up with.

Have you tried other squishy toons in the zones? They all tend to be a bit tougher to play, also, what lvl are you playing? My dominator didnt feel pvp ready till lvl 30, and still needs some more slots.

Im sure pvp dominators really could use dying more often than they do, this is why we barely see any as is. What is it that you want? City of tanks/scrappers/brutes?

[/ QUOTE ]

Isnt it pretty close to that already :S
I recently copied my dom over to test, respecced in aid self (along with other powers) and tried a 1 v 1. In no way conclusive but I felt like I was participating in the fight more rather than hanging on by the skin of my teeth all the time.

BTW. Heres a dev quote from the american boards.

Sure. I think, compared to many other self heals, Aid Self is over-powered. Mainly, this is due to how Interrupt powers work, and a scale that is slightly too high, so it would not be an easy change to make. It would also be very unpopular, and, in the end, it isn't strictly necessary. So, it stays as is.

Of course, that means every AT that has a self heal can now complain that it isn't as effective as Aid Self, and what are they getting to make this fair? Not much, I'm afraid. The only thing I can really say is that taking Aid Self in addition to their normal Self Heal will increase their survivability.

if the attack is queued, wouldnt it kick in the second the touch the ground?

They think I should put on a jesters costume and do a little dance?

If the cap fits....

it's almost impossible for a scrapper to kill my blaster in 1vs1 arena fight, it's too easy to run and heal your self, I think they need to make the recharge longer on aid self.

Scrappers dont have a devine right to own blasters, besides, there are other people who may need aid self to play.
