    Thanks
    ss and sj
  2. my stalker can survive running just indom will, tactics, heightened sense, ss , cj and stealth. I havent slotted it properly yet so my reovery is ***.
    So i use hib when rest is recharging.

    invisi and phase is good enough to get away.

    What does taking down bags of hp with dumb ai have to do with pvp?
  4. Was not that much into arena pvp but i did some in sg ones in i12 and i kind of liked them.

    Is there a reason why people stopped doing them?

    What to level

    I´m gonna push my son/pain to 50 this weekend and since its only 17 levels i want to start on something else.

    I like playing disruption(got a rad/ta corr and a mind/cold) and gonna try support with the pain and maybe dual build it so it can 1v1.
    Also got a em/wp stalker which i cba to finish since its not elec or spines.

    So i kind of want a hybrid damage/disruption toon

    I was thinking about a Grav/Nrg

    Wormhole, 45.5 kb powerpush and dimension shift all sounds good on paper but should i look into something else?

    Also suggestions on 1v1 corrs would be helpful. Not storm though since i think i would hate getting detoggled all the time.

    In my opinion mind does not put out enough damage for 1v1´s. It can be a funny disruption toon though.
    Think Nanu has a Ill/Cold that he does well with.
  7. I have nothing against droners or getting droned myself. I think its good for disrupting base camping.
  8. Yeah. i just logged in for a bit on lunch to check the market and saw 165 unhidden people redside. when i first logged onto freedom on my us account there were over 300 people redside unhidden at 18.00 gmt. Stuff like that makes it hard to go back to the eu servers.
  9. when i cba i go pick them up. i usuall get frustrated using them though since they trigger ts
  10. I´m bad but i would like the following.
    Corr entangling arrow to be given an immob duration. I dont give a damn at this point if it is 2 seconds base just want that moment where the player have to change to cj.
    TS and HD removed from Zones.

    Also find ways to make sonic resonance viable again. Perhaps giving psi res to the shields? Dunno

    Also stop delaying the new defender pool(pools?).

    Either a pool with a FA or a pool with Hib or prefereably both so you have the option.

I recently respecc'ed out of it to get a spider and some more HP... cause after a while teammates just kinda knew there was little need to hop skip and jump all over a zone. They'll come... they always come.




    I speak no defender in particular... or better yet perhaps I speak of one I haven't rolled yet I suppose, since the idea of a good one seems crazy here. I was gonna wait to roll a CotM (Concept)Traps/DP defender later that I'm sure I could make work somehow... thinking something along the lines of seekers + chem ammo, -DMG specialist for teams or something.

    Nah I'm speaking mostly on Traps in PvP in general. My text comes from PvP experiece with a /traps corr named Venenix for the last 2 years at home on Virtue although I vacationed on Freedum several times. (More noise than good PvP IMO) I've rolled a few Traps/ defenders... enough to notice better debuffs and key powers offered sooner than later... I just haven't leveled or specc'ed one out for PvP.

    Hey. I'm just saying Traps is a more than viable set for SC. It doesn't play like all the others, but is very capable of getting killls when played right solo despite what many people believe, and as already agreed upon... capable of contributing to team PvP. It isn't easy to be great with, but it doesn't take a seasoned PvP'r to get good with.

    If any of you seasoned PvPers get tired of the same ol' approach with every toon, or if any new PvPer wants to roll something without breaking out the cookie cutter and still have a blast in PvP... I highly reccomend a Traps toon. You can be successful, get kills, get laughed at, save lives, bruise egos, strike absolute fear in the minds of melee players, get smarter, and blow people up all at the same time.
    So.... You have never actually tried to play traps defender in pvp?

    Fire/WP

    Willpower is not a good scrapper set in pvp 2.0 . It never was, although i played one in i12 and it was okish with SoW and other gimmicks.

    If you are dead set do as xanatos says and get phase. Try to build so close you can to hp cap.

    Cant bypass it myself using this with the us client.
  19. Soooo.. Other than different opinions about epic pools theres nothing wrong with the other powerpicks right?
    I´m pretty set on phase since i´m going to be the target alot and hibernate just invites people to camp me.
  20. crashed just now and cant get back in.

    tried the stuff linked in ochos post but its not working
  21. I know theres a bypass for the updater when you get stuck on updtating but cant remember what you added to the shortcut.

    Anyone remember?

    I do have a partially io´d stalker but beeiing the out of range when yoiu are 1 feet from them makes me mad.
    And i want to try something else other than disruption and stalker.
