  1. i'm not kidding when i say that if you want to find your leader, head to Echo right now.
  2. pvpo'd spines/regin with no stamina and leadership.

    even though i understand that in some situations, it is definitely suboptimal.

    Well, since you are used to paying koreans, you should have no difficulty leveling/IOing all of his toons on his second account.

    There's always next season for his first account.

    Briefly describe your PvP experience: I can pvp


    OH dayum too late....
    Too OP.
    1v8s would be the only way to balance having that man in a team.
  9. last tpvpl i told people to leave vent until they had their builds ready.

    in two cases, people did.
    they came to the following practice fully prepared and ready to actually be an asset to the team.

    team pvp should be about the whole TEAM thing; not about retarded rules meant to foster a fairy-tale wonderland that never existed in the ladders. if you were bad, you got to sit the bench during officials. the rule should actually be "if you show up for x amount of practices and you're in d6, you must be played.", you find out someone's not following that, you sit them down and teach them a bit about teamwork and accountability.

    would there be enough support for captains to change the d6 rule to require a minimum attendance to practice? i know kat's a mf carebear and won't approve, but if the other captains are willing to put it up to a vote....




    also, lolpvpec.
    wasn't hush a lead in that **** once?
  10. i think i have a 50 em/sr stalker on virtue...

    Dark miasma is terrible as a pvp set. Cold domination isn't nearly as good as it used to be, while radiation is difficult to work with but is still workable. Storm summoning is probably all around the best defender primary for pvp since it's usable solo and is the best in a team environment.
    actually, in 1v1's, dark miasma is pretty good as long as you slot accuracy into your build or use something like a rad/dark corr or the likes.

    storms are not good when it comes to defenders. toggle dropping hurts them more than it hurts dark..

    if you want a team defender, roll something like a emp/sonic, ta/sonic (better off doing a corr) or a kin/elec for zapping.

    if you want a 1v1 defender, roll something like a dark/rad or a dark/elec. and even still you're better off with a corr in those two situations.

    exactly.
  13. cold's are pretty inexpensive too.
    they definitely teach you quite a bit about pvp.

    my concern is that the only time that targets are called randomly, or sequentially is when the skill gap between two teams is huuuuge. which in turn means that you either have to abuse noubs to get the best chances at a drop, or play like a total idiot (not repeatedly killing the real threats or farmable targets).

    the current rep system encourages real stupidity.

    these ambiguities were pretty much cleared up without a vote. sounds dumb, but the precedent it sets is kinda really really bad. that post should not be edited at all unless, as per stated in the rules, game breaking exploits becoming known.


    while it may be "obviously good" it's not "obviously correct".

We are not going to put every tiny little issue up to a vote when no one really wants to be bothered with the small little ******** rules. When they do care, they will ask for a vote.
    then put that in the rules
  19. spines/* = a bit of recovery if you're gonna spam impale liek noub.
    */regin, */ea = a bit of recovery so you can run tactics and assault
    */nin, */sr = a bit of ranged defense.
    */nin = kb protection
    all = +dmg and enough hp to reach the AT cap.

    guess what, the 5 or 6 captains thing is there too.
    have you ever read contract in your life, kat? just because it says "to be determined" doesn't mean you or peril get to play "decider" without asking for a vote from the captains (which should have been done, well, yesterday).

    same thing happened when the whole "hey guys, i didn't say 5 minutes before match" line-up submission thing happened. even though i warned you guys the day after the rules were posted and asked for a vote on a few line-up submission ammendments. peril pulled a rewrite out of his *** and pushed it into the rules to make the OP more like the original intent of the behalf of the pvpec (without casting an actual vote amongst captains to make the change).
  21. resistance armors also make a huge difference if you ever choose to 8v8 on that toon.

    Aerial Combat...

    ...Why does there need to be an all or nothing "-fly" component in powers such as air superiority and web grenade? It seems weird that you can attempt to resist holds, immobilization, and so on, but a "-fly" webnade will bring you down no matter what.


    Why not remove the "-fly" component and let the mez effects cover it all? Hover has been upgraded in the last few issues to protect fliers against mez effects, but it should never be all or nothing.

    I'd like to see more aerial battles; too often, it comes down the guy, with his raptor pack, throwing a web grenade. The damage from the fall basically does it from there.

The open zone thing is a nod to those that like that style.

    You still need to have some kind of anti-farming measure, because folks can choose their opponents in Arena matches. If there was some kind of auto-match system where you just queued up for a match and took whoever the game gave you, you might not need such a system.
    In the arena, the chance to roll should be static and it should occur at the end of a match. If the drop rate is 1:60, it should be upped to say 1:20, and then rolls should occur against each of the characters on the winning team.

    making this apply in matches 6v6 or larger + 10 mins or longer might make it harder to farm unless you're gagora.

    dUmb (of course) votes yes.

    I have no issue of 8v8s but we seem to average 4 d6s showing up at any given time. All have been contacted. I nor anyone else have the time to hunt them down.

    Having said that I'll probably (ironically) have 15 show up tonight.
    it's sort of funny that the OP is getting changed over and over and over to clear things up without discussing "intent" with the captains.

    technically any changes to the league rules requires that the 5 captains agree to it. might as well just take this rule out since we're wiping our ***** with it.

    FYI: Never said I was a good pvp'er. I kill some and lose some, but people like you are the reason I limit my visits to pvp zones.

    Obviously you all think that bringing break frees is the end all argument to beat Doms. (I don't really see how we got off track of the original discussion, but I'll roll with it.) It's a valid tactic. I don't have a problem with that. However, it's a tactic I personally find dishonorable. You guys go ahead and spam inspirations, I'd rather let the better build/player win the fight--sans inspirations, unless I see that they're eating them up.

    Oh, and black? Calling others "kid", says something about yourself. The way you type, I wonder what age *you* are.
    if you lose more than you win, maybe you should shut up and learn from those that win more than they lose. or does that learning thing does not compute well?

    let me try to phrase this nicely...

    turn around. take down your portrait of bruce lee.
    close your mouth. it's the first step in keeping the drool from hitting the keyboard.
    sit down. playing while standing is not kosher.
    and read up a little before you post again.

    seriously, baddo, you have issues with inspirations, that just show that, well, you're at the bottom of the food chain, and thus should not be listened to.
