Earth is very good in pvp. Not the best in most scenarios for doms, but very workable.
The ONLY thing I've ever found to be negative on my earth dom in pvp is that the st hold has just over a 2 sec cast time (though thankfully a much shorter root time, so you can still move while casting it).
If you tend to only be holding pvp foes for ~4 seconds, it sort of sucks to use half that time stuck in one power.
It is often the difference between hitting them twice (say havoc+thunder) before they get free and hitting them once and then having to use ranged attacks.
The -kb in the hold (most other sets don't have this except grav and ice) can work against you too as knocking someone is almost as powerful as holding them now.
i recently made a earth/elec dominator for pve, but i wanna knw if earth can go into pvp and do a decent job?
