I got volunteered to work 7pm to 7am Friday into Saturday morning so yeah... I'm out.
GL all.
Stupid work. -
Psoma you are awesome <3.
Thank you so much for the guide.
To answer Cy's question about other guides the answer is:
Yes! -
I think voodoo is setting one up this Friday (5/21) EB so no you didnt fail.
I'm down if you have room. -
Yeah, I actually had a story that there was no way I could complete in time so I went with the lymeric.
-
We had an awesome VFN. The 1st match went into sudden death mode, followed up with some lvl 5 free for all action and few other rounds. The last match we did was a free for all in the monkey cage with only MM's and Storm characters.
It was a lot of fun and thanks again to everyone who came out. -
Not sure if any of the recent patches has changed the way things worked, but:
Badges by level- Strawweight through Super Heavyweight: Just set the option
Arena Victor- Win any arena match
Arena Duelist- Set the match type to duel
Arena Survivalist- Set the match type to Free for all
Pentad Victor- You are suppose to have to have 1 of each AT (epics not included) on each team, however, this badge is bugged and you can get it by just facing off 1v1 against the same AT as you are playing. So a Blaster VS Blaster with the 'Pentad' setting will(was) awarding this badge.
Tournament Victor-This is the 'swiss draw' match. It is(was) very buggy. People who win are suppose to move on to further rounds while those who lose are elimated. However, people who won were not moving on and some people who lost ended up in the 'winners' bracket. The best way to force the badge is to have people quit out of the tournament. So if players A,B,C,D,E and F were to try to get the badge for A they start the Swiss Draw and in the 1st round everyone quits the tournament except A.
GLHF. -
Sorry about tonight's VFN. I was called into work and wasn't able to host it.
In the future I will try to find another person to host if I am not available so we can keep Fight Night rolling. -
I have to bow out of this, I just got called into work. I will send offlines to everyone who has stated interest. Sorry all.
-
Thanks everyone.

Thanks Cy. The zone fight night was alot of fun and I was really impressed at how people switched sides to keep things as even as possible. Typically, in the past these zone events end up being so lopesided that people get really frustrated.
This week we will be returning to Pocket D for VFN. Hope to see you all there. -
So one of the recurring comments as to why some people do not enjoy PvP is that they do not like spending all whole match chasing people and not being able to attack them. This is most commonly (obviously) for people playing melee toons or ranged toons with fly.
While fly can be somewhat viable in zones it can be used as a travel power, however, when doing arena matches it can limit your character to the point where you are not able to evade damage (maps with ceilings: Office, Cargo ship, Troll Cave, Monkey Cage) or not allow you to chase people who are running away from you on large maps or people who hide under trees on maps like Striga or Perez.
Melee characters can get some sort of mez in their epic/patron powers (webnades, fossilize, web envelope, shark jaws). This should give them the ability to briefly hold a target long enough for them to get into range for a melee attack (or just keep spaming their ranged attacks).
I know that spending 5 minutes chasing a target only to have them pop into hibernate or to have someone else swoop in for the kill can be frustrating so I thought I would open the door for the discussion of the following topics:
Travel Powers- why is it important to be at max travel speed and jump distance.
Evading- What is line of sight and why is it so important.
Temp powers available for purchase at the Arena store.
I am hoping that we can get a few of the great pvp minds out there to discuss these topics and if not I will write up a little something this weekend.
Thanks again to everyone who has been showing up to VFN and all the PvPers supporting this PvP University project. -

Well, Asclepius was famous for his snake-wrapped walking stick. It became a symbol of his medicine and is actually pictured on medical facilities today.
A very similar staff with 2 snakes (and sometimes wings) is used interchangeably with the original. The 2-snake staff has a name: the Caduceus.
In addition, the original staff and Asclepius have been tied to the constellation Ophiuchus, generally depicted as a man holding a snake.
Perhaps one of these names would work.
EDIT: akk! missed seeing the last entry. Oh well...
There is actually some debate as to if those are even snakes at all. The origin of the picture may actually depict the removal of a guinea worm. Where a slit is made where the parasite is located then slowly wound around a stick.

We were thinking of doing this weeks VFN in a zone, most likely Sirens. Contact me if you want for help with what might work well there.

It has been some amazing fun times, without the immature antics, will say the Victory PvPers are skilled and very respectful at the Fight nights! Am excited for fight night each week and glad I can be a part of it. Thanks again Masque!
I do want to point out that it is co-hosted by Legion of Valor and Barnyard heroes. We have also gotten a lot of support from Tribe of legends and Icons. -

Are Stalkers allowed at VFN?
Honestly next lvl 5 ffa we might let them in and see if it is too op or not. -
The answer is yes. I can't tell you the % that DR takes off because they use super crazy math to come up with it.

this is what i am using these days, it is mostly a PVE setup but it seems like it works.
I realy do not like the idea of hasten/SS, and thanks to weave i can scrap abit with scrappers. my biggest problem is i can not take down any /regen or /willpower. (this may makes your pvpers head explode)

Hey Tal-
1st thing set your Mids to export in Offiicial Forums(vBulletin) its the last option that way you dont get all that extra color code stuff.
I know you mentioned you didn't really want to trash your pve build to make a pvp one and you probably didn't want to spend the billions to make a 2nd build just for pvp. So what I did was to look at your build and to try to keep it as PvE friendly as possible (keeping most of your recharge and defense as possible, while giving you max HP and some nice proc damage for PvP).
A few things I changed with your build. I put Kismet in Hide so that you always get that bonus (rather then a power that may drop if you have an end crash). I did add in some pvp IOs but nothing that expensive (ok that is a total lie, I put the Glad Jav proc in your build which can cost like 1 billion infamy, but you can switch it out for another glad jav just to give your 'focus' and 'shark' a little more range). I moved your stealth IO to sprint to save a slot in SJ. I noticed you didn't use anything in build up so I took away some of your red fortunes and moved those slots to Build Up so you could slot some Gaussians.
Anyway with accolades this build is at HP cap (huge in pvp) you still are softcapped (in hide) for pve and still in the high 30's out of hide.

Wow great turnout tonight. We started off with a 8v8v8, then went to a lvl 5 FFA, then a lvl 31 team match, and then some lvl 50 team fights as well.
I really need to remember to set the maps, we ended up drawing Eden and Troll Caves...UG!
All I can say is I was really impressed with the turnout tonight. Great fights everyone. -
Hey Chrome welcome back.

Fight Night will be at 8pm EST this Saturday. Hope to see you all there.

I will see who I can get to post a build or suggestions for you tal.
