I am no Pvp vet. So I imagine one will come along and give much better input.
However with the changes, I suggest slotting the Single Target Hold and Immob for damage/acc/rech and not duration.
isnt pvp mainly about burst damage now?..i dont see fire.emp being bursty enough honestly
i dont pvp anymore as well but with heal decay and all that going against a healer..might not work out as well
Same here little to no experience with pvp especially post i13. But in the few Empathy pvp oriented builds I've looked at just to see what is different a few things stand out.
1) Stealth, tons of it, everywhere they seem to be able to get it.
2) Knockback protection, again tons and tons of it.
3) Absorb Pain is in them all. PvE it's entirely skippable if useful for some. PvP its a huge fast animating heal with quick recharge that is very helpful in dealing with Heal Decay (or so I gather).
Hope that's minimally helpful ... I see all sorts of things I'd do very very differently but that's from a PvE point of view and I have no clue if it would be more or less useful for PvP.
I am trying to correct a friends build and have no idea where to start. He said he wants to do PvP with this build and is trying to increase the effectiveness of his crowd controlling abilities. Help?
