I got a question about dueling illusion...How do u?
Do you kill the targetable pets? or just focus all agro on the actual player.
[/ QUOTE ]you want to be attacking the player first
So I see...
"the reason there are so many sarcastic pvpers is we already had a better version of pvp taken away from us to appease bad players. Back then we chuckled at how bad players came here and whined. If we knew that was the actual voice devs would listen to instead of informed, educated players we probably would have been bigger dicks back then." -ConFlict

I'm starting to wonder if /Thorns having Aim (and -Def, but not really that great) could make it a better contender to help counter high-def or high-tohit debuff builds.
[/ QUOTE ]no never, it's lethal damage, the damage is small, the animations are large, most hero builds take power mastery which means s/l resists, /rads have a self heal and -dmg debuff you probably won't be able to outdamage their self heal.
only chance doms have right now are /elec doms, but I have not seen a single good /elec dom yet
[/ QUOTE ]
Would you consider ice/elec as intuitive?
slows and melee, etc..
[/ QUOTE ]yes aside from ice's slow animations they should work together well, the slows will make it easier to get into melee
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ]
I'm wonderin bout mind/elec........
[/ QUOTE ]
What about it? Those two work together.
[/ QUOTE ]they work together sure but you're going to be TKing opponents out of melee range which is where elec is the strongest.
Mind also just isn't as strong as it used to be, I'd probably recommend ice or fire primary over mind for elec assault.

Yes, I read the link.
I don't really agree with the "win at all costs" philosophy but, be that as it may...
[/ QUOTE ]I think it's fundamentally disrespectful to approach an opponent and not actually try to win. If you're just going to play with me, it's insulting.
[/ QUOTE ]
there is suck a thing as trying your hardest to win with honor

[/ QUOTE ]If you wish to artificially limit your ability to win, do so. You can think better of yourself for doing so as well.
I mean, hell, I don't even PVP.

except when you don't use all your tools...
For your team rating of the assault sets... Energy should be closer to number one. Power push goes a LONG way when coming to lining up that dual assassins strike on teams. The inherent boost on power push's accuracy helps big time too.
this was pre i12, and most people have enough KB IOs to protect from power push anyways
so for zone pvp, would ice/elec or fire/elec be better?
fire/elec
While discussing building domination with the snipe interupt:
[ QUOTE ]
It's certainly as cornball as TP Droning, which is of course also not against any rules, but definitely a cheesy move that one uses only if you can't beat your opponent in a real fight.
[/ QUOTE ]
Positively the most lulz-worthy comment on the boards.
Tell me,do you say"no insps" before an arena match?

They don't really pvp at all.
Duel me.
I will work on my sig pic more when I have time.
I know Ice has an AoE toggle that is -stealth, so if one had that aura and tactics, would it be possible to detect a stalker who had stealth, stealth IO, and hide?.
You cant get enough KB IOs to protect against a mag 45 knockback...

Depends on the build, and it's not easy, but 45kb protection cah be had. Ajax's test team build is running 48 mag protection, according to him.

[/ QUOTE ]see? there you go
Id like to see how that is accomplished on a squishy. Acro can be slotted up to mag 12 + 5 KB IOs to make a total of 32. Thats a lot of kinetic crashes to put in. Unless you can slot more than 5 KB IOs thats new to me. I was under the impression you could only have 5.
5 defense and 5 resistance. You can also have protection from kinetic crash in kb powers.
I went fire/elec, but I would've just as easily chosen mind/ when paired with /elec. I don't see mind/elec as being behind ice/ or fire/, as you just place more bias on evasion/ranged mez (BU as necessary), followed by closing into melee for kills. TK benefits the former, and it shouldn't play like a mind/fire, so I don't see any difficulty playing a mind/elec (especially after a mind/psi).
