What part of no time to level another toon do you people not understand?

To the OP, yes follow up is completely skippable unless you do fiteklub. If you do fiteklub or melee vs melee duels, that toon is actually pretty good at it. But in any zone or team arena, you will probably just be getting Focus and LBE off, if you feel like getting a melee attack I'd at least get the starting power and the hardest hitter (i guess thats evisc?). If you plan on Fiteclubbing then pick up followup and your choice of melee attacks, once again I think claws/WP will do pretty good in FC, but then again its hard to beat regen without debuffs.

I'd build mostly for HP and get accolades, since WP has a +hp power inset you can probably softcap yourself without too much effort.

Go ahead and grab phase, and make sure you have some perception before going into the zone. You can probably do some OK damage with Focus and Lazer Eyes, but like everyone has said it wont be much compared to other sets. At the very best you could make good stalker bait as you will have alot of HP (if you build right), and I guess you could pick up taunt from scrapper pool to keep annoying doms/corruptors off your teammates.

I will recommend SS and SJ, SS to protect from webs destroying you and SJ to web (if you wanna switch from Body mastery to Weapons, web is pretty useful as is caltrops sometimes).

Good luck on your build and have fun

Do you mainly solo or team?

I usually put the base slot for KB protection, but i dont actually put any slots into it.

Also: Sanctorian you suck.

And soul touch, why dont you just switch fitness for leaping? With numi miracles and quick recovery do you really need stamina too?

Hmm...

Well on the scrapper I will be running speed/leaping/concealment/leadership. With tactics and perception IO of course I will be fine.

If I go tanker I will go speed/leaping/fitness/concealment, because I need acro, stam, and phase. I have a feeling the tanker is still going to be squishier than my regen, but thats just me.

Anyways, I know fossilize and char have about the same damage, but tankers have rage all the time while scrappers only have buildup sometimes, and tanks have more range.

So...

I THINK I'm going to go for spines/regen/blaze, just because regens are more survivable, and for crits. I know tanks will be better in arena for taunt and more HP, but come on, everyone needs a regen, right?

Thinking of a hero pvp toon, I already have a sonic blaster, played psi and fire blasters. Thinking of something like a melee toon with plenty of range for getting kills.

I'm thinking either

Spines/Regen/Blaze
Spines/Fire/Blaze (farm capabilities, but lolfire compared to regen)
Or SS/fire/Earth.

I know looking at numbers and range, the tank has higher dmg and all 80 foot range, but I dont know, it always seemed like char and impale hit me harder than hurl and fossilize.

What do you think out of those 3? Or are all these toons pretty useless and I should just play my sonic/em?

I kind of like the idea of getting kills and barely ever dying, but I've had no experience with blaze or earth mastery in pvp.

TBH i dont really like any of the ones you mentioned, but if you really want a new toon I would ask you:

Do you have a pain corr, therm corr, and cold corr? I would try one of those cause they are pretty fun. If you're going cold i would go dark, and if you really dont like dark then go sonic.

Ok this is what the pet build would look like, basicly moved frostwork and with the extra slot added some more recovery in stamina.

After playing freedom zones awhile with the corruptor I'm starting to warm up to the idea of leviathan mastery, seeing as things die so fast web is not as useful as it was on champion.

On a Leviathan build, I think I should go Maneuvers/tactics for KB IO and perception that was lost from Focused accuracy. This leaves me with an open slot, and I'm not really sure what to do with it. I could:

A. Get a snipe, not very useful since I have like 4 attacks now, right?

B. Get Dark Pit, its a stun which is useful, but I already have a hold from Shark Jaws, granted its slotted for damage not mez.

C. Get coralax pet, I hear this thing is pretty useful in arena but I'm not sure how useful it will be overall.

D. Get Torrent, not really fond of this idea considering I can only get it to 22 KB and Dark Pit is more reliable because nobody has stun protection like they do KB protection.

I am leaning towards Dark Pit or Coralax build, this is what I have in mind atm. No I will not be toggling on Maneuvers.



I could easily be persuaded to take the pet if someone has had better experiences with it compared to Dark Pit.

Thanks.

Sonic/dark is solid zones, and a pretty good dueler. Ice/cold sucks, and psy/em is a great blaster.

Are we allowed to cyber?

Looks much better overall.

I'm keeping Hold instead of web so i have something to detoggle stuff, might get into 2v2 and 1v1.

Thanks much for reply

Because of spirit shark jaws? 1.87 is a good cast time for 167 damage, but I can't see myself not having perception and Web. Especially since web is a major part of my toon when I team with my friends therm. Is it good besides the disagreement on Mace mastery?

Gonna transfer and respec and IO my dark/cold from champ, seeing as I deleted my old build I made this one, I'm pretty sure its about the same.

I'm not going to do any big changes (Change power pools, Patron, etc) but I think it looks pretty good, I dont have as much recharge as I'd like, because I am going for a build a little on the cheap side (already have the LOTG, numi, and miracles). Is there any obvious things I am missing or can be changed? Wanna have this up by tomorow hopefully, going to switch to build with actual purple sets after I get me some pvp IOs to sell.

it'd be cool if all the pvp'rs moved to a different server, but then again part of freedom pvp is not only high pvp population but the high population of the whole server...

The lag really has gotten lag, i can tell the difference just from last week to this week.

Want a pvp toon with some good pve usage, these come to mind.

fire/em blaster is the best blaster for pvp/pve, fire is good aoe and single target, EM is best for pvp.

Fire/SS tanker: Good damage and survivability in both pvp and pve, make sure and get earth mastery.

Spines Stalker: Spines stalkers are pretty good AoE pve and AS+impale never fails.

Mind/energy dom: good for sleeping AV's on LRSF, but any mind dom will do good in pvp, especially /fire.

Empathy: Good support PvE and PvP

Pain: Same as empathy but has potential for good damage too

SS/Fire brute: PvE is a beast farmer, pvp it has ok damage, rage and hurl is decent, make sure and pick up web mastery in pvp build.

It'd be nice if we had a server with alot of pvp'rs without the cubic tons of pve'rs...less laggy i think

jee whiz after leveling lamo toon on freedom now i get free transfers, really can't decide if i wanna transfer my mind/elec and sonic/em, i mean how many straight damage toons is already on this server...

2 corrupters with ally heal (pain and therm), 2 stalkers, blaster and emp are my top three favorites.

3 percent def is nothing especially in DR environment....
and the chance of having TP protection is so low its not worth a slot when you can just stay away from drones and you wont get tp/droned.
