  1. My pain dom cost 2-3x that and my therm is going to be alot more.

    <3 ranged damage pvp IO procs

    </3 the price :*(
  2. If i rolled a toon on justice specifically to roll his elec/therm, would I be able to get it to 50 relatively quick? or is it just as arduous as on freedom, being as how a majority of PL'ers on freedom disgrace the art that PLing seems to have become.

  4. Sentry. You have never seen a real elec/therm built for duels, have you?
  5. Honestly. If sentry is killing people on justice, with an elec/therm/mu, theres three possibilities.

    He only fites HONR FITEKLUB style.

    Fites in arena with insps and DR turned off.

    A Majority of Justice zone players are pathetically bad?(Besides Con and mac fo sho)
  6. I don't feel like editing my other post.

    Its actually self-explainitory why he went Mu and other non-sensical choices when put to to comparison with out builds. He's a supa-srs regin fiteklubber with much honr.
  7. Actually, I have some imput here.

    Mu= Useless. Powersink? lol congratz, you can drain an extra 20 end every minute? Mu Pet? LOL, A pet you can have up for, what 4 minutes? and is down for basically the whole match? Conserve Power? Maybe, but there are better things. Electric shackles? Ok I'll give you that one, I love that power.

    Mace: Gives you a perception power and web nades, I tried this, performed decently.

    Soul: It has power boost, admirable, but not worth it really.

    Leviathan: Has Hibernate and, in my opinion, the second best hold. (Coralax is beast too!)



    The thing being, If you don't take leviathan or mace, you are missing a travel power, fitness, perception or a phase. All of these being central to building an elec/therm.

    -If you can't see the person, and the person happens to be say a blaster? Say good bye to your HP.

    -HE works while phased, and VS still attacks, and an elec/therm is not likely to be able to stand up to a blaster or other high damage AT on its own with HD on. Since Ele/therms are a dueling toon, Hiber>Phase, becuase if heal decay is enabled, you can phase and try to heal to full, but likely fail and come out of phase at full HD, where as hiber replenishes HP due to regen, you come out with no HD and at full HP/End thus explaining leviathans popularity.

    -Mu, quite frankly, by comparison is garbage. The end drain is not NEARLY enough to justify dropping the survivability offered by hibernate.


    --If you think Mu>Leviathan, I can set you up on test to duel my elec/therm, I promise I'll go easy on you?
  8. I'm dreadfully allergic to serious idiocy and stupidity. Right now, I'm sneezing so bad I had to bring my wi-fi keyboard into another room to type.

    Yes, Please, Let us continue to nerf bad powers. For the love of all, stop complaining about slightly broken and inadequate things when there are 7 psy blasters 3 rad blasters and an archery blaster in RV.

    O O and how about the fact that sharks are the only reason some people have stalkers? The fact that I can stand still in front of a stalker I can see and he hits sharks instead of AS?

    Or maybe the fact that movement slows are neutered beyond comprehension?

    But no, god save us if we must continue on with a power that is balanced in quite a few regards.

  9. My pain dom is a better emp then mac's thermal.

    they actually MOVE!!!! OMG.

    This game is perfect, This changed fixes pvp 110%!
  11. For the love of all, can we please have Baby New Year and Snaptooth? PLEASE?

    >.<
  12. Cold Domination/Rad Blast?

    Mind Control/Psy Blast? (Dominate Being Unpositional, holding and therefore suppressing the defense?)
  13. I kry nao.

    Now I hope they don't realize why 0.0

    Fire/Kin/Stone

    Get Smoke.

    Smoooooke.

    (ToHit Debuff=Defense to ALL, therefore smoke can be equal to like 10% defense slotted)
  15. I can help aswell if this isn't already resolved.

    HI

    An upper-case i looks like a lowercase l, therefore

    BIue Bowman in game appears as Blue Bowman.
  17. Well, I have approx 7.2 bil spread across my toons, The thing being though, PvP IOs often have the shiny factor and people slot excessive amounts despite they are not really even helping them. If you insist on the build and don't want to use the money to churn out a few other toons, I suggest going SS/SJ/Stam/LDR/Leviathan.

    Perception is very vital to an Elec/therm, putting that debuff on isn't really optional, its a matter of living and dieing.
  18. I nominate "Supermax" for obvious statement of the week award.

    More srsly, Castle would have to be blind, deaf, illiterate and live in a cave deep in the amazon, guarded by rabid game programmers and a yeti in order to NOT see how bad pvp is.

    lol....balance.

Anyway, take a look and tell me what you guys think........ and I am not in any way attempting to thread jack, just add to it ;-).

    Making expensive builds almost never means they are good in all regards. Yours in fact can be made better without slotting excessively expensive IOs that aren't really worth it at these prices. If they were cheaper then maybe.
  21. *Sigh*

    The build, quite frankly is confusing. You're cutting corners for what looks like finacial efficency, then throw a 5 set of glad nets.

    Switch the Apocs out of lightning bolt, put those three(Proc iz Important) in Charged Bolts, throw a pvp IO in CB. 4 Devastations 1 PvP IO proc in LB.

    Purple set > PvP IO set for Tesla.

    Drop Assualt, pick up coralax, 4 slot SBA.

    4th slots in an Apoc/devastation sets give damage bonus's, which are helpful.

    Revise slotting on Melt armor, More ACC.

    Slot Shark Skin more seriously.

    Take the Kismet out of Combat Jumping, Dueling with an Elec/Therm is extremely drawn out and time consuming, it's very likely you will get little use out of it in CJ.

    3rd Recharge out of HE, the gain isn't optimal.

    Don't Run Maneuvers, the gain isn't worth the end drain.

    3 Slotting BoZ is useless, use the two non-proc slots in better locations.

    Unfortunetly, I refuse to give out my build .
  22. Iz my turn?!?!?

    I prefer /nin, used well with Shadow Meld and Invis toggle management, I manage to get killed very little. Shadow Meld puts you @ about retsu lvl defense for 15 seconds, and is mistaken for retsu quite alot.

    Personally, I prefer /nin simply becuase of its level of survivability in 1v1 and 1v2 scenarios where blinding powder can make a dramatic difference. It also has the highest capability for +damage slotting.

    WP tends to be about the same / a little less then ninjitsu, but acheives that level quickly and without as much investment as a comparable ninjitsu.

    lolBS. Headsplitter =146 Base and ET is 228 base I beleive. Now Headsplitter can crit fully, for numbers looking like 292 vs 228, but using placate before HS in order to get the crit brings the amount of damage into a very close range, with ET > HS.

    So honestly, You CAN go BS, but it's not the best or anything close to the best.

    Well, I am just gonna chime in here.


    EM/Nin/Soul, running 55% damage bonus in I12, 2 damage procs in Blinding powder, BU+BP+AS. AS =~= 1300-1500 proc dependant. Plus I always qued up Dark Blast, adding another 250-350 damage, So honestly, it didn't matter, DB had the animation of the old ET, meaning that a regen would die in relatively the same way if he held still.

    >(Correct me if I am wrong, but I seem to remember procs in AS counting as seperate damage packets, bypassing the 1 shot code, becuase that was what I perceived as happening and was what I was refering to in my original comment)<
  24. First off, Data chunk pls.

    From what i can see of your build right now, and your damage is kinda lacking.

    31+ KB prot is a must.

    Moar +Recharge, around 50% + Hasten is a sweet spot in DR, the DR canceling out about 6.5%ish with hasten down and about 11.2% with hasten Up.

    1550 with accolades and such is nice for the HP.

    Slot VS for end sap, Also slot Tesla for end sap over damage.
