Quote:Not really, that in itself is another pointless flame, why do pvp players seem to think its ok to act like total dicks instead of actually just replying as the original poster wanted?
Theres no need for all the crap that comes here from the forumites, really get a life. -
Quote:I've seen good trappers (Arbegla, Fuze), and you're not one of them.Whats ironic is looking at how they would respond to someone who entered a thread about a Psy/Em to say it sucked even though they've never PvP'ed with the set personally.
You' haven't fought stalkers from a Traps perspective now have you? Try it and get back to me. -
Quote:are you retarded?All I said was caltrops break hide... that stalkers will not more than once (twice if dumb) attempt to AS near a Traps toon when set up and surrounded by any type of teammates. I don't understand why basic statements here get made into a all out comparsion of sets. Does the phrase apples to oranges mean anything here?
All is available, included, and possible in a Zone BB.
it's all about comparisons.
because otherwise, we'd all be running around on petless dark masterminds. -
caltrops and acid mortar are subpar trash compared to other stuff that's available for the same purpose.
mastermind pets, earth control patches, sleet, freezing rain, and acid arrow all pose a larger threat than the trash you're suggesting. even ring of fire spamming scrappers are scarrier than acid mortar (they chase me afterwards.). i wanna see an acid mortar chasing a scrapper.
also caltrops do NOTHING but break hide. -
sonic/therms are better than elec/therms in zones and teams.

I'm with Slax here.
I kept my sonic/therm through the "healers suck because of DR" days, my spines/regin stalker was laughable all through i12 when i rolled it (got it to 50 during i13) but after pvp io's came out it became a pretty beastly toon, and my necro/storm with full accolades is just sitting in an obscure server waiting for the day it may become viable once more; same thing with my fire/sr brute, except he's now softcapped for lolpve.
wait it out.
remember when /dark corrs were bad? -

No more than 5 bonuses having the same name. Example: Kinetic Crashes have 7.5 bonuses but they have a different name from LOTG 7.5 Bonuses, so you can theoretically have 5 Kinetic Crash 7.5 Bonuses and 5 LOTG 7.5 Bonuses without having one not count.
As to documentation on DR, there's none. I believe the devs have kept the system extremely opaque as to be able to tweak it without having us call them out on stupid moves constantly. That's my conspiracy theory of the week. -
OMG BABY YOU'RE ALIVE!?!?
but yeah, afaik pvp bonuses are named "pvp recharge bonus" or "pvp resistance bonus" and blah blah, so under the "set names" rule, it means they follow their own rule of 5.
and yes, they are affected by DR. DR is calculated on a per power basis so anything that adds to a power gets factored in using AT specific numbers. -
Quote:dude.well without fly i wouldnt have a travel power.... with a lack of pool power slots available i really didnt have much choice. I could drop hasten i guess but i would lose damage there.
this is not pve.
standard pools: fitness, ss, sj.
the fourth is the one that's up for discussion.
until you realize that, go farm more behemoths. -
Quote:just a word of warning to everyone,<qr>
I have said it before, I will say it again. Traps is really only viable in pvp on a mm. Yes it can work on corrs and fenders in certain situations or against sub par opponents in zones. But so can a db/da scrapper, that doesn't mean we should go around talking like people should actually use them if they want to be viable in pvp. And no viable doesn't equal 9 kills in 3 hours on the busiest server in the game.
And lol @ barrier having his cashews in mod8's jar, git wrekt sun.
claiming that you're a tumor is grounds for a ban.
git wrekt world. -
i just wanted to take a moment and state that if mod8 hadn't taken my stones and decided to keep them in a jar in his office, i'd be making fun of dahjee right about now.

Quote:earth/taYeah i kind of want a new hero since i stripped my mind/cold.
LF damage/disruption or damage/support hybrids.
Wont play scrappers and tanks and defenders are too much work for what you get.
So any fun troller builds? Idealy for zones, not much time for arena since most kb´s seems to happen like 4am where i´m at. Something that could work for 1v1´s and 2v2´s when TS and HD makes me rage would be nice.

dark/nin's better than em/regin in many situations, but it's also a lot more expensive.

eh, during the days of stacking ambushes, my fire/psi pulled better numbers than my fire/em blaster, ss/fire/mu brute, and fire/kin controller.
and that was post /psi nerf. -

unless you're fighting divine's team and harpooning the whale.

Quote:sorry, the technical team is busy figuring out how to animate tails, and because of this, they can't figure out how to scale drops rates with team size.We are up to two now I think (Which doesn't exactly make it better considering its been over a month) Heroes managed the PbAoE one in a practice and I got a glad strike acc/dmg in another.
So yeah, 1 drop every two weeks in team settings as small as six, but as large as 16 (Internals) playing 4 - 5 days a week between practice and officials seems stupidly low. -
Quote:i find it retarded that the devs insist on making us PVE for the sake of PVP performance.Just as a side note. Of all dUmb's practices and Official matches since the ladder started (Which is basically 3-4 days per week) - we have had 1 PvP IO drop
So....three weeks of PvPing fairly hardcore and our TEAM gets 1 - is this REALLY how its supposed to work? -
if you're building it right, you will only have two possibly power slots from your primary.
so it really doesn't matter.
pick a primary with a pet so that you can get that 3% hp set in and you're good.
