  1. Happy birthday cherry, make sure and check in BMT after the party before you pass out, it'll be fun for everyone on BMT
  2. Regen, when a scrapper is more powerful than a tank, and does more damage, well thats just not balenced.

    I'm not gonna lie this part made me giggle. XP
  4. I would like to see more than the usual 4 vills vs alot more than 4 heroes also

    Some people swear by heroes but I still say its easymode with the amount of heroes they have compared to villains.

    Uhh not really ....most corruptors with self heal go phase + mace anyways because w/o leadership its your only way of getting perception....and with proper slotting youll be fine.

    Oh and MA doesn't take more skill than kat or broadsword....its just as good/easy as broadsword and IMO even better for zones.

    Hey now...watch yourself....my dom gets kills in zones

    PS I do team arena and team zone i dont like stupid duels! Why would I waste my time IO'ing a regen or MM or ill troller when I can IO out a toon I will use more than just for stupid duels. IMO pvp skill is about A. Killing and B. Being Alive. team pvp is where its at even when your teaming with idiots in RV

    I got most of the basic sets in still gotta get another accolade and some procs and some other random stuff, will probably buy after i get another pvp IO drop.

    Its funny my dark/cold was a pvp toon for like 2 weeks but it just doesn't get nearly as much kills as my dom did ;P he will just be an old buffer toon form now on Besides, I can't beat the name Sonik Wang.

    The dom is still good but i found out they fixed that holds suppress KB protection so I cant wreck regens and tanks with meh levitate D:
  8. theres like 8 serious ones 10-ish casual ones and then the ones that enter RV for a week or 2 and then leave cause they get wrecked...

    uhh no..

    IMO grav is still best with powerboost for a PB'd total focus or PB'd wormhole.

    If you have ever been wormholed with PB you will know it is instant death, no way around it. Its that good.

    But yea some people told me elec is bad but I still think its way better than fire with a melee/stun heavy hitter plus solid range and fast recharge buildup vs fiery embrace
  10. Well shucks...that was my favorite way to kill regens :\

    Guess I'll go back to the "team with a thermal" method...what a bore
  11. Ok so back when I played my mind/elec on SO's I would wreck regens and tanks with KB so they die before they can heal by using Dominate + Levitate to KB them while their KB protection is disabled, but now I pulled out the old mind/elec and that trick wont work anymore? Or did the regen have a lot of KB IOs?

    Really dissapoints me it was a lot of fun :\ Does anyone know what happened?

I am impressed. Until now i would not team with a member of PoN, but now they are active in the community so i will help any member of PoN who needs me!

    All because of you Felecia..

    pretty much all correct, exce't "Other 2 are mostly dead." Turns out one of the THREE other zones is so dead that we forgot about it?

    I wouldn't make a pvp toon just for champion just go to freedom.. But yes champ has some solid pvp at evenings and nights usually but its not alot of peeps.

    New Dom..

    Go Grav/Energy is is the way to go if you want the true Dom experience. All the control that is still worthwhile in that set!
  16. Lets all move to champion.

    Yea yea I know be careful what you wish for. But TBH, i need more pvp action and yes I think wrecking noobs (especially from freedom) is fun. Don't judge me.

    Slot lightning storm for end drain, set up in an area and most melees won't be able to touch you. And the end drain will wreck a lot of them.
    Yea it is good against melee's but any halfwitted ranged toon will kill you like tissue paper. Storm is only good in duels vs melee toons really, otherwise its very simple to kill a stomie.

    Ok heal decay isn't based off what heal you are using, its ANY heal. Insp, warmth, aidself, someone else healing you, w/e.

    Also, on a therm you want SS/SJ/Fitness/Phase IMO (because you have self heal to use while phased) but if you insist on hiber and leadership go SS/SJ/Fitness and Leadership and pick up Hiber.

    I only use hiber on Doms and blasters because most corrs and trollers have self heals to use instead of sitting like a duck in an open zone waiting on a team to do the "gang bang huddle"

    Thug/pain are usually the hardest for any AT to kill, so i can imagine taking anything else.

    With the except of maybe a /dark who has their pet healing for them.

    If you killed him with all his pets still up, I am doubting he is a good MM. And if he brought the proper insp, the only useful power (HE) of thermal would be useless and you would be creamed or it'd be a draw cause you were avoiding him...

VEAT stealth might not be all that wonderful but at the perception cap they'll be seeing Stalkers and dropping them out of hide - I've got a build in Mids for a Bane that I'll probably build after Going Rogue which is specifically designed to see stealth-capped Stalkers and drop them out of hide without any outside +perception. Of course, it's built kind of weird, doesn't have Stamina but has 65% ranged defense, 1600 HP, and 55% damage bonus while running double Assault.
    Yea thats where I got my bane Idea from is double debuff with my friends bane, but stalkers would still be better.

    Also I have one nitpick about all the GR pvp posts, do we even know we can pvp on switched sides? Just throwing it out there.

    But the thing is, you can double AS a regen just as good as you can double-bane stuff a regen.

    Also: Shatter Armor; what is that? Edit: nevermind just read up on it, that power alone might make banes even better cause of that -res debuff, considering you also have surveillence and even venom if you can stand the redraw (I know I can't). I think if me and my friend made double leadership banes we could put out as much dmg as a stalker but the problem still remains of a weak stealth cap
  21. Yea I was going to respec my old bane into a new i13+ pvp build and i was super excited with all my debuffsand damage and then i looked at ingame numbers...

    There is literally no reason to roll SoA.

    Fort < Corr or Dom
    NW < Stalker
    Bane < Stalker
    Crab < corr dom or MM

    This is my combo to any melee'r who gets near me in pvp.

    Power push + Total focus, while they are flying I am using the long activation ot total focus to kill half their hp and stun them
  23. i told wonka about the LOTG prize and he brought a crapload of reds on his stalker to killsteal, luckily the zone was full

    I saved up BU for the last bit of health, but instead of hitting buildup I switched my tray to tray 6 and ended up not getting one attack off before I could get back to my attack tray and then hami was dead and I was sad

    Was fun, but I bet forming 5 LRSF's could get hami's faster :P

    Combat Jumping and superjump

    and you only need to 4 slot benumb

    Ok you have a couple of options as far as pools go. Personally, I wouldn't get aidself because it won't save you too often especially in zones. But its your call.

    Option 1
    hasten/ss
    CJ/SJ/ACRO
    Hurdle/health/stam
    stealth or grant invis/invis/phase
    Mace mastery with Focused acc (plus you get webnade)

    Option 2
    Hasten/SS
    CJ/SJ/ACRO
    Hurdle/health/stam
    Maneuvers or assault/tactics
    Leviathan mastery with Hiber



    Of course you can always go the aid self route but these are the 2 options I think of with cold corruptors (or almost any corruptor)
