im saying that there are a lot more pvpers out there,the arena wasnt very popular at first, then we had the s4 compitition, and pvp in the arena became very popular

[/ QUOTE ]

Thats absolutely rubbish. The most people I ever saw at our Arena nights after S4 was twenty players.

[ QUOTE ]
Oh it's true.

[/ QUOTE ]

Its so true you could slap a cover on it and call it the Bible.

WOW, this thread is still going strong, almost as long as that thread in CoV beta when the server went down and we tryed to trash the forums with quote pyramids

How many times...its Ziggurats, Pyramids come to a point...

That was fun!

Attempting to make a thread Ziggurat is wrong!

I don't think you need the fitness pool on a kin post-transference.

[/ QUOTE ]

No, you don't. Even with the loss of Perma Haste you can use Siphon Speed to buff your recharge rates, and since you should have a fair number of slots free (I've gained 9 from Hasten, Speed Boost and tactics) you can stick some End Reducers in your attacks for more Kinetics fun.

[ QUOTE ]
Would a chump have an urban camouflage costume to give him that very slight extra edge in PvP?

[/ QUOTE ]

Yes.

I'm not an expert on SR or claws, but do you need Conserve Power? Its recharge is now horrible seeing as you can't six slot it or rely on Perma Haste. I wonder if you'd be better served just putting End Reducers in your attacks, especially as Claws powers have a faster than average recharge.

Oh, and three slotted Hurdele? Curious as to why.

Very nice build that you've put together, although you do seem to be going a bit too far with all the Acc enhancements+tactic+Focused Accuracy

If somethings worth doing, its worth doing it a lot is my motto.

Just stay away from me. Forever. I don't have time to buy 20 lucks every 5 minutes y'know.

Recognisable as a chump. You disgust me.

Omg you suck.

Chumps of the world unite,
You have found your leader.
His name is Chives and he's shiiiiiiiiiiiiite.

Best. Song. Ever.

Your plan was [censored].

when it comes to advice on scrappers the scrapapocalypse are the scrappers to ask...

[/ QUOTE ]

Were really giving you bad advice in our neverending quest to wind you up.

I wouldn't say Blasters are better than Stalkers. It seems to me that only the good Blasters are much of a threat in PvP, the rest are simply Scrapper fodder. However, even the worst Stalker can be a pain in the [censored], especially to PvP newcomers.

Nothing official has been said about it that I know of, although /Regen always gets nerfed.

I can hit builds with better Defence than you at the moment without Tactics, FA or the extra Accuracy slot in my attacks.

You will barely notice the defence your getting from those powers, and the rest of the damage mitigation you have available to you suffers from losing six slots.

[ QUOTE ]
I thought that the Drnes could see through Invis etc. But I've been done a couple of times whilst outside the hospital. That has two drones outside and two outside the gate. They only got the stalker after he'd given me a steel infusion.

Maybe I got it wrong.

[/ QUOTE ]

Enough stacked Stealth powers break the games Perception mechanics: Stalkers with enough Gran Invis's put on them are undetectable to anything, unless thats been fixed recently.

No ranged attacks? Weave?? Slotted Combat Jumping???

Your getting a pant wettingly pathetic defence out of those power picks and slots. I'd dump Weave and pick up Focussed Accuracy and junk Revive and slot up Laser Beam Eyes.

[ QUOTE ]
Its amazing how having brawl with 1 accuracy as an option gives you that extra 7 or 8 Dps which is often so vital...

[/ QUOTE ]

The only reason to slot Brawl is for toggle dropping or if your a Brute. If you need extra dps, put recharges in attacks.

[ QUOTE ]
I would love to see the look on some of the people faces when my horde appears out of the shadows and hands them there backside on a plate. Watch them tremble in fear while my horde remains protected by my powers.

[/ QUOTE ]

Not everyones as dumb as the people you seem to be facing. I see a Masterminds pets, I know theres a Mastermind nearby. Killing the Mastermind kills all the pets.

Hmmm, wonder who I'm coming after? Hopefully you'll bubble up PFF, which makes killing you much easier

I have no idea why you have hover (shadow shards?) as a power in there especailly if this is for PvP unless you plan of hovering whilst you fight

[/ QUOTE ]

How am I going to fight all those squishies with flight without it? This way I can chase after them and give them a nasty surprise: theres nowhere to run.


[/ QUOTE ]

tp foe? means they can't run to base either....

[/ QUOTE ]

I hate TP Foe. TP is a cheap power, and out of place on a Scrapper. Someone wants to TP me, fine, saves me walking over there and thwacking them one. But none of my characters will ever pick it up.

[ QUOTE ]
A small TH buff is way more effective than first impressions suggest.

[/ QUOTE ]

To be honest, the main reason I'm picking up Tactics is for the +Perception. That and Focussed Accuracy should make it hard for Stalkers to get the drop on me. The tiny amount of added accuracy is an aded bonus, nothing more really. I rarely miss as is, and I'm going up to two +Acc Enhancements in my powers once I've got Headsplitter. FA is only being slotted so that I can laugh at SR even more.

[ QUOTE ]
The only problem I see with it is that lack of mobility. Anything with fly should be able to easily get out of range before you can kill it. In my opinion it would probably be better to get Air Superiority then Hover in the hope that you can AS them before they run away,or you could always try and fit fly in as well.

[/ QUOTE ]

I had Fly on my Tank. Never again. If I need to -Fly someone, I'll just get Chives in with me

[ QUOTE ]
What travel powers for PvP?
Movement seems so important i'm thinking of taking them all, or at least 3 of them anyway.
Flight, SS, and TP. With air superiority and TP Foe.

[/ QUOTE ]

Superspeed and Hover will get you anywhere you need to go. Theres three power picks required, and you'd be a damn fool to not get Hasten.

[ QUOTE ]
Do you really need a rec red in hack and slice? they come up pretty fast as is, could you not use them to give some acc buffs in tactics if you want to ensure you hit?

[/ QUOTE ]

The base buff from Tactics for scrappers is so pathetically small that its not really worth enhancing. I'd say I need the recharge: I have two in at moment as I'm levelling, and even with Hasten active theres a few seconds of downtime in the attack chain.

[ QUOTE ]
so unless I want to NEVER have any problem on stamina against mobs of 50 villains then I don't need it!

[/ QUOTE ]

Having more Endurance recovery than you need comes in handy, especially in PvP when facing End drainers. You can never have too much of the blue stuff.

[ QUOTE ]
ps. those police drones is sirens are about as much use as a chocolate T-pot. (Hmmm T-pot!!)

[/ QUOTE ]

They oneshot any enemy that gets in range. Thats fairly useful...
