Blasters are awesome

[ QUOTE ]
ice/energy or fire/energy

[/ QUOTE ]

Both of these have a high damage, short activation, single target attack chain which is what you want for PvP. Ice is more suited to duels and Fire more suited to team fights.

Its very important to take fitness (for stamina & unsuppressed movement), leaping (for acrobatics to prevent knockback), and speed (for hasten and ss). Then PvP blasters take either medicine, concealment, or leadership (only for for team matches) as their final pool. Taking aim and build up as soon as possible is vital for both pve as well as slotting 2 accuracies in each attack. When PvPing always remember inspirations (especially break frees) & dont stand still.

There are plenty of posts regarding ice/energy builds and fire is very similar just swapping fire blast, fire ball, and blaze for ice blast, ice bolt, and bitter ice blast.

Ice/Elec is also worth mentioning as an alternative, very good in sirens & the end drain from the melee moves is very good & sounds much cooler than energy melee

Enjoy blasting in PvP theres nothing quite like it

when was this?

Yus but a lot of pvp tournies are based on the test servers (which is fair so every1 can join i agree), but people like me dont really want to go onto the test server (dont ask why) and would much rather have server based comps and ones where they spread out the level ranges instead of mostly just level 50s, cummon people get a lvl 30 event going! lol
In response to the arenas though, iv got toons on both servers and i agree that arena battles have become a thing of the past. However saying that, iv been in atlas just chilling and doing my thing and people have organised arena battles that way (of course via local chat, since broadcast in atlas is frowned upon), if theres ever an arena battle/server based tournie then i know me and a couple of other people are always up for it.
Silly broadcast pvp fights ftw!!!
"you think that hurts?!"
"pft wa a noob"
"oooo look at you Mr Strong using inspirations"
"runnin away are ya?!"
"oh great now im dead . . . gank squads suck and you know wa else . .. you suck too"

ps. You may find that generally people dont want to duel against you in arena if you tell them youre rad/sonic

[/ QUOTE ]

Aint that the truth lol

Regen is a great PvP toon too start with & move onto squishies as you get more experienced and have a greater understanding of the game and pvp mechanics.

PB's have some decent tools & with the right build could hold their own. The thing with a PB is it suffers from a lack of a second big hitter in a similar way to super strength (Incandescant Strike and Knockout Blow).

I have done a pvp build for a PB (so much spare time at work )

You get lightform up half the time, perma dullpain, at least 35% resistance to everything apart from psi and toxic and a 50% heal every 20 seconds. Which sounds pretty nice.

Edit: Basically it would be a very survivable scrapper with no criticals or mez protection but does have the advantage of energy damage.

[ QUOTE ]

2) KS vs Phil ( Already completed 3-2 )

[/ QUOTE ]

Was 2-3

Aid self ftw

Any power that slows has the recharge enhancements labled as slow attack speed

I think with IO recharge bonus it would hurt pure slowers such as ice/rad controllers but slows are still useful and not everyone goes for recharge in their IOed build anyway.

I wouldnt mind dueling a slower on test on my Ma/Regen (who has a 52.5% recharge boost) to see how much difference the +recharge makes.

Just for the record the rule regarding disconnects is the same as in S4 which is if you d/c after 2 minutes of match theres no reset unless your opponnent agrees.

Thanks for fight mate
