I think you will be very happy with fire/mind/stone combined with thermal.

Thermal is a great pvp set (self heal/great -recovery/-resist & -def) combined with stone for more -def, mind for lev/dom/mezmer, and fire for damage and concept.

This takes a lot of the mystique out of making a build but I have never had a toon as survivable as this and I used it for my brute.

The best thing about grav for PvP is it leaves you more room to take secondary damage powers!

My PvP grav has st hold, st immob, and dim shift.

The really should make propel hit for 100000000000000000 to justify it cool graphics and cast time.

If grav/electric intrests you GO FOR IT.

I have a 48 grav/electric named Magnet Man. It is a great build both PvP and PvE. Electric assult is so good and you only need a few powers from grav so it works out well.

I think the wonderful thing is killing farmers would actually help your bounty so you literally farm the farmers. Great idea.

It can really PvP however most spend the money on PvE because it shreds.

Hi guys having a real hard time with grav/electric PvP build.

To many powers.

How good is singularity in PvP?

Lift is a no brainer but I assume it is not as effective as levitate because the hold (that disables toggles) has -kb, is this true?

As far as electric goes, besides the brute cone power what else is skippable? Voltaic Sent or the Snipe?

I want Phase,Leap,SS, Fit or do you think I should get tactics as alot of powers have smashing component... If tactic then for sure hiber.

Debating Poisen Ray/Pff/Shield or Hiber/shield.

Any advice appreciated.

-fly

wait till they make propel 1million damage.

*start Rant*

Don't be intimidated by being defeated. Everyone gets defeated at some point, even though some will not admit it.

As far as zone PvP goes I don't think there is any disadvantage to being defeated besides hurt ego. Even when others are base camping I love to run out there 1 vs 10 just for the chance of killing one person. If you get the kill you have a chance at a 30 million recipe, if you get defeated and give up the recipe it only makes them cheaper for your other heroes/villains to buy them.

I really wish more people would team and go against the other factions even when outnumbered...to me it is our duty to do the best we can to help statesman or recluse. The other faction wants action and it is hell of boring to sit in the base SO BRING IT. When heroes or villians are outnumbered 10 vs 1 they understand the odds are against you. 300! Alamo!

What usually happens is some gerk offf that has 200000000000000 allies talks crap like "you noob" or "learn2pvp" then the opposing faction stays in base to not be ridiculed further and we all have a boring zone.

*end rant*

As far as arena goes usually the good PvPers are willing to help. It is tough to swallow your pride (at least for me) when you get pwninated time and time again, however if you look at it like a learning experience instead of popping off usually the other players will try to help you. That has been my experience at least.

I really like fire/fire with phase for zones. People moan about a scrapper getting phase, however I have not been able to make a sturdy fire armor yet (even with tough I still was defeated to much). Phase is also nice cause you can chase your intended target after they hit their escape button.

As far as fight club many consider fire/regen to be the most dangerous all-around scrapper. Amazingly I have seen fire melee cut through things with capped fire resist...like my scrapper/brute.

Lvl 50 sonic/pain domination corruptor

Thanks to all people that helped me level, and to all peeps friends and foes alike that has made arena and RV a blast!

immob for assassin strike, throw in a drain psyche when you can.

One thing about psi blast is the same people who are mocking you when it takes 50 sec to kill the robot, you will be mocking when it takes you 10 sec to make their heads explode.

pain dom

If you don't have these toons already roll a dom, they are getting a buff and some think they will be the blaster of villian side.

I think spirit shark is one of the best looking animations in the game. I do agree that the concept of throwing fish at peeps is almost like an inside dev joke. They should have ghost widow throwing kisses, scirrico throwing scrunchys, and Black scorp throwing hot dogs...

For arena besides pug kickball almost all toons have sj+ss. I see a lot of fly in zones and that hover now stops -fly makes it more workable, however I would still suggest getting sspeed to compliment the fly pool (that way you can cover on ground also)

Ya with PvP io's going for the upward of 200 million it is tough to not to jump in...

/psi shines in the hands of great players. It poses more complex problems than electric, however electric just kills things faster so it is better.

Even the best mind/psi I have ever seen lost to a good mind/electric pre-i13

i love my sonic pain. Don't forget you have access to a pet in patron arcs and if you are a vet you can get the +damage from heal on your vet buff pet.

Seems the board has concluded they like the set better for MMs but if you don't like being dependent on bodyguard and pets, a pain corrupter is a great way to go.

You have to be super skilled to make kin work. I have seen very few good kins that can consistantly hit their heal on a kiting foe.

You should roll what ever you want.

At some point it will be good and then be bad and then good again...

I don't know but earth/sonic is such a cool toon and i never see them...Props!

I think powerboosted surveillance also has contributed to the downfall of the fort.
