Quote:lolgankingpermadoms.Well EXCUSE me for not bothering to immediately register so I could troll around on the forums arguing with people 66 months ago when I created my account. I guess I had better stuff to do. Like play the game.
But returning to the original discussion, your theory assumes that the character in question has the DPS of a blaster and either A. Comes upon the enemy unawares or B. It's a duel. I dunno what server YOU played on, but ganking perma doms were all to common for me.
doms were pretty much fully invalidated by not being a retard and popping 2 breakfrees before engaging, if you built ANYTHING right, it was gonna be able to wrek a permadom. but everyone is this game is a retard. gg son.
also, as to your reg date.... who are you? were you ever on test? ever fight in the ladder? srsly kid, stop pretending you're good. i13+ doesn't count. -
Quote:400 pt fossilizes are balanced.So you're saying a defender (a person that plays the support role), should be able to knock out a tank (AKA meatshield)? Yeah, cause that makes sense. Sounds like a very balanced game you have going on in your head. I'm all for a bit of balancing, and if the defender in question has a better build and player than the tank, the fender should be able to win--but not to the point where it doesn't matter which AT you're playing. Rock getting the #$#@ kicked out of it by scissors is dumb.
That said, having certain builds that can own everything in sight *cough*perma dom*cough* is ridiculous. To continue on with my rock-paper-scissors analogy, bringing lava to the table in a roshambo game ruins the fun.
err.. wait. -
Quote:i just posted a thread in player questions but i think in hindsight it should be here
Will holds ever be a real part of pvp again or is it gonna stay passive controle such as end drain, kb, confuse, debuffin
just wondering if i missed anything or if anyone had any thoguhts
they are, wut wut noub. -
i would never duel on a dom with less than 1450hp, and i would never team on one with less than 1480+ and a resistance armor.

Quote:calm the f down forest elk hNow i see where this guys rep comes from...either he is successfull t...or is really yeah...Whole EULA things drives me crazy :S
The drop rate for pvp IO is retarded is not new. They applied same chance as for purples, didn't realize however that pvp only hapens on Freedom and you can't kill so many pvpers in 1 hour as NPCs. + what i was always wondering, does amount of teammates drop your chance to get pvp IO? If so, it really should be reviewed. But as Synapse said, it works as intended = we dun give a f.
I wonder if i will get this message deleted now, but i would suggest mass petitioning/messenging w/e for this: just let us roll pvp IOs with rep we get and it solves the whole issue.
DID SOMEONE SAY "HONOR"????? -
Quote:hahaha, more things to juggle?I'm fine with saying it's not a skill--since I never said it was to start with. It's just one more thing to juggle in real time and there's a noticeable difference in effectiveness between when that juggling is done well and when it's not. Each added item to juggle can be viewed as simply added frustration or as a challenge, I happen to choose the latter.
seriously?
did you ever play an emp before i13? or for that matter any buffer?
counting to 9 is trash compared to having to constantly be aware of stacking mez's on your buff bar as well as your teammate's, and keeping up buffs that actually do something to the person you're supporting.
i bet you're one of the people that think doms are better off now than in i12, too... -
I really just hope i can type Character@Server and be able to do this infamy/influence e-mail thing across servers.

if you haven't rolled this or gotten this to 50, you're better off re-rolling as a grav/cold, ice/cold or even mind/cold.

No.
F NO!
that's the problem right there, you little PVE-ers think we all should pvp retardo-style, trying to tab through every target and kill them sequentially. i refuse to back a system that (like the current one) encourages idiotic play for the sake of appeasing those who think FARMZ0R R EBIL. -
Quote:i like youMy Earth/TA troller with not a single damage IO in any power got a kill by accident the first time he entered a zone and got a drop. He has only gotten 4 kills total since I started playing him. By your logic that means the drop rate is as high as 25%.
Your logic is stupid. Stop posting. -

Quote:blah blah blah.You are TERRIBLY misinformed. No one was booted from this team whatsoever. Most of the D8 either A. Never responded to DIVINE who sent out all the tells since EAGLE did not. Or B. EAGLE listed the incorrect globals and we never got in touch with these people. Besides, they were all friggin regen scrappers. You aren't at our practices, you do not know that eagle refuses to get on vent, that eagle refuses to modify his build for team pvp, that has been to 1 out of 6 or 7 practices. Divine has done NOTHING but give this team the leadership that was completely absent. Eagle is the official captain but he as no say in what we do, why!? BECAUSE HE IS NEVER THERE TO SAY ANYTHING! NEVER THERE! I'm sure the entire team would drop out of the league all together before going under some non-existent leadership. Give Divine a break. Whatever past you have with him is your own business. But i this case, Divine is stepping up to the plate and giving you all a ******* team to play against.
tempty's roster updates say people are booted.
gtfooooooooo -
i dont let brutes without taunt into my SFs, TFs or PVP teams.
you really have to be a mentally damaged to skip out on it unless you have a lolRP build. -
Quote:yeahIs it any surprise they can't field a team when they got rid of 14 players?
I didn't realise the rules allowed people to be booted for not attending practice.
wish i could boot baddies from my team too.
guess everyone fears the whale hunter enough to let him do stuff like that. -

Quote:it doesn't happen.I do have to take this guy's word, but he did get the said purple while PVPing.
Once he got it, he posted it. Again, I am not making this up and yea, it is one guys word, and I somewhat trust him. It is just something to take into consideration and to be validated. maybe it is a bug. it could happen. who knows. next time, I will have everyone clear out their trays. if this is a verified actuality, it could be another pvp incentive!
(hint hint dev's!!!)
i've basically gotten every single pvp io dropped on me at one point or another (i farm liek beast in wilderness)... never a purple.
the dude is either stupid or lying to you. -
-
no not really.
basically, if you get held, that's it. no challenge. you fall, get shraked/AS'd, the end.
there's no challenge to a deterministic game where you can't do anything to change the outcome; that's why comrade D said "frustrating" and not "challenging". in i12, you could prevent all of those things if you had half a brain cell. this is no longer the case. -
they should re-evaluate the "they are ultra-rare" argument for sure.
if they want to encourage pvp, they should be ultra-common, and maybe there needs to be a nerf to their pve-effectiveness.
again, back to the root cause: devs that don't pvp and think that RP is what will keep this game alive. -
Quote:aw crap, the **** i miss when i go to bed early :-(Congratulations on your D6 win vs RA FTW in practice.
I know this must be a life changing event. This is a time when you look back on all that hardwork and say "YEA! We have accomplished something." Please don't let others belittle your win. Take it all in. Some of you may go on to become great players after this amazing win, others may continue their epic journey to obtain TRU WARRIR status. Nonetheless, congratulations in beating such a great team in practice.

Quote:I don't know the memories you refer to, but I think I know exactly what you're talking about.
Although I was often one of those huddling around the turrets just outside the Arachnos base in Siren's Call, hoping that this time this time, we'd be able to take down that blaster before he got away with another scalp...I miss those days.
Of course, a few weeks before I13 came around, I'd actually been in the habit of tossing down a couple of yellows and trying to chase the empath away.
I don't recall the last time I was in a pvp zone...
Oh yeah...
Warburg for a Biological Nuke and Bloody Bay for Shivan Shards.
I guess it's kinda nice not having to worry about stalkers in Warburg anymore.
meanwhile i remember playing my mind/fire in zone, being buffed to the tooth by 2 therms and two mind links, doing the best we could to keep the rad/psy down because nicor kept screaming that it was the only threat, essentially running a 16v16 in zone all around the atlas statue in RV.
this would go on for hours and hours and hours. to the point where i remember i'd come into the zone at 11 or midnight EST during the summer of 2008, and leave at 3AM while the fight was still going on hardcore.
yeah, whoever says the zones are more active now, must have some hardcore amnesia.
