How is Lightning Rod and Shield Charge in PvP? I've not actually seen anybody use these in PvP. From that, should I predict that they aren't so good? PvP wise?

Thanks for anyone who provides a quick awnser

Lightning Rod is freaking awesome on stalker....because it does not break hide. So it goes something like this.......BU+Lighting Rod+AS+Placate+TS= Alot of pain. I myself don't have a elec stalker..i'm more of a EM man myself..But that's how i would do it if i had one.

Lightning rod is so fun in pvp lol, use it on my stalker and had a few kills from it actually. Will take some getting used to but its pretty decent. Can jump under the drone with it and AS people XD.

Haven't tried shield charge myself but i can imagine it's decent against MM's

The good thing about Shield charge is it does the same damage in pvp as pve which is kinda strange considering its and aoe.

The only thing "meh" about shield charge is the 90 sec recharge.

Shield Charge/Lightning Rod are good for closing the distance between nearby opponents because it's basically unsuppressed movement (albeit a short distance).
