Theres a few iv seen,and have abosolutly trashed some of my toons,and alot of other players.

A rad/rad Corr that flies is a very nasty killer.Took out my scrapper,my defender,and i watched it destroy some tankers.It attacks so fast,and repeated a attack chain of Proton Volley and Cosmic Burst,and some Nutereno Bolt.Even my Regen Scrapper couldnt hold up agenst it.it was dog meat.

Then iv seen some Dominators of several diffrent types rip up the scene,and then of coarse,Stalkers,and a Willpower Brute will tear things apart most times,alot of hero players cant beat them down fast enough before they get thrown back to the hospital.

Also,what else seems to be popular-ish for villian pvpers,is a SS/FA Brute.The little freaks heal just fast enough to be problematic on the pvp scene.

Hope this helps.

Unfortunately PvP died with i13. It was special before, not everyone liked it. It's pretty horrible now, and most of the good PvPers left the game or turned to PvE instead.

What is left now is just a parody.

Sorry to sound so "negative", that's not my tone usually... but on this precise issue I cant help it. I still hope that one day the devs will realize this horrible thing that is i13 pvp and change their mind. Talking about it might help.

However, on the other hand it shouldnt turn you away from CoX : from a PvE perspective, this game is fantastic !

Yeeeaaaaaah, pretty much this.

That being said... in reply to the OP, what are you looking for, exactly? Melee, ranged, solo, team, arena, zone?
