Spines/Regen is your best shot.
Claws is no good, neither is dark melee. No buildup.
Regen is one of the best secondaries for scraps, IMO. Can't go wrong with heals.
SR is pure defense. Defense sucks. SR is pure suckiness.
Claws has a build up, the power is called [Follow Up] which can also be stacked giving a person one hell of a damage boost. here's my claws/regen build. Be advised I swapped out all the Doc wounds for the new pvp IO heal set for the extra rech/ regen.

I know people that have gone with the fighting pool instead of leadership and grabbing FA instead of darkness mastery, But I like my purple sets and a high rech.
There's also a PvP video on how well it preforms in my signature, I hope It helps.

Have any videos that aren't lolfiteclub?
"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

Do you have any videos?
Yup. Sorry if I copied your style

last I checked this was about offering insight in to pvp builds, not trying to make a mockery of those who are trying to help.
Then you missed the point of my first post.
lolfiteclub is just one particular niche of PvP, and often one that isn't adhered to. People who often build for and practice fiteclub styled tactics often get decimated by those who don't. However, the people who build for and practice non-fiteclub style tactics often find themselves quite successful, even in fiteclub styled situations.
Your videos show you being successful in fiteclub situations, but they are not what I would recommend as an example of good PvP tactics. Given that one of your more troubling opponents was a corr that stood toe to toe with you the whole time gives some evidence to that.
If you want to use your videos as an example, then show videos that show a range of PvP situations with you doing well. Otherwise, yours are no better than Elernet's "AS-ET the unmoving squishy" videos.

ahh, didn't know the lolfiteclub was a nitch. He is built for Zone pvp, I just usually don't have fraps running all the time.
I will make a note to add more clips of zone FFA and zone teams, and not just standing under the globe. Could you send me a PM about what fiteclub style is, when I asked about your vids I was being serious and not sarcastic.

I wanna make a claws because the just seem kinda good to me, unless some1 thinks another primary is way better but any way what am i looking at here will the do pretty good for a newb pvper? and what is better pvp regen or SR?
[/ QUOTE ]
Once again, claws is not good compared to other pvp sets. Particularly because of buildup. Most pvp, some would way *real pvp*, follow up is VERY unefficient because it's nigh impossible to stack it on anyone with skill. Buildup is key to getting kills in the common pvp situations.
He said Claws sounds good to him, unless someone has a better choice. I do. Anything that is not dark melee or claws, once again because of buildup.
I s'pose this just an opinion, but I'd be safe to say I'm not the only one who feels the same way...
Seems like your view is kind of biased. Its obvious claws it not the best pvp set and there ARE sets that are much better especially for a new pvp'r. I'm not saying your claws scrapper is bad in any way, I'm just saying there are better choices for him, IMO.
