I always try and carry some breakfrees, one hold and theres a good chance i'll be taking a trip to the hospital.

Seeing as I'm talking in the abstract (i.e. x is y if z happens) and not in the direct (i.e. "omgz ur lame"), I suggest you take yourself somewhere you're relevant.

When did using inspirations in the Pvp zones become a lame move???
I just finished having an argument in sirens with 2 villains(they where brothers)and they where saying using inspirations was a cheap move,now ive been playing this game a long time and it is part of the game,so is this just a case of them being sore loosers? or did I do somthing wrong?
Anyway these guys have been(so I was told by someone else in the zone at the time)harassing people,so im not the first and if the guys are reading this !!!GO BACK TO WOW!!!

Insps aside, I pay little attention to what people are saying in PvP zones. I have heard enough of "LOL NO SKILZ". It just adds to my dislike about PvP.
Running is cheating, using Build Up and Aim is cheating, having your defences up is cheating, using hide or invisibility is cheating and definately, more than anything using Inspirations is cheating.

Some of us would rather 'win' due to our ability to control our characters, as opposed to our ability to buy inspirations, though - a test of skill as opposed to a test of inf.
[/ QUOTE ]
It's not even a test of Inf - all lvl 40+ characters have access to a limitless supply of tier 3 inspirations and will earn Inf whilst fetching them.
Still, since Insps are about the only way for some builds to counter some tactics it's pretty hard to just view them as lame. Rushing out of the zone to re-stock every time your tray's empty, OTOH...

I've been called Lame for using Insp on Union. I just think so what, its what its there for. To be used when needed.

Is hardly unexpected.
An energy stalker beats my blaster by;
TPing me in.
Delivering a blow that stuns everytime.
Placate
AS.
And I'm effectively toast everytime. My only hope is;
1. Not get in tp range in the first place.
2. Have a BF on my person. If I use all my BFs is it lame for me to go restock? Or should I just give in to the energy stalkers only tactic?

Yes. Breakfrees are pretty much only thing you can do when you get tped and stunned with a blaster... Even then it can be pretty hard to get out of the box (Hello Sway) before the AS gets you 
So no. I dont consider using bfs as cheating. More like valid counter tactics.

Well, from the POV of a Dark/DArk brute i'd say ins are fair game. I won't leave the zone to go get them, but i sure as hell need ACC ins and some Cabs/Respites or im done for.
1 Acc debuff will most likely make it impossible for me to heal (DA Heal = player based) Regain Stamina (again player based) use my version of buildup (yup u guessed it, target/player based) or utilise my main strength (sirens is lvl 30 malefactor zone so i rely on fear, most importantly the accuracy of my fear)
In short if i dont have acc ins i may as well exit the zone and safe myself the grief :P
Dueling in Sirens - that is arranging a 1v1 with no disruptions - is another story, and some ppl i've dueled think that because they have a full plate of ins, (normally regen scrappers) and that they pop a load of Lucks, Dmg/Acc ins and then use buildup fast healing etc that this is a fair fight. But i can't do jack with it except to kite around and fear them for a minute so that they've effectively wasted them :P

I love how quickly I make other people burn through break frees as my dominator, just stealthy following round the map, hitting them with a hold from out of nowhere then flying to a safe distance so that by the time they use a breakfree, they can spalt me. Rinse and repeat till they stay still without the pink glow of doom, then call in my Stalker mates to smack em (until I get round to slotting my attacks).
In a big battle it can get annoying, but I think clear mind is more annoying than break free's, it's way overpowered and need a nerf. Stacked resistance to effects AND stacked perception. :/

What? You can't even use it on yourself. Seems to me this is another controller-esque type believing they have some *right* to hold ppl.
CM might be powerful but you try and find someone who remembers to cast it on a regular basis!

I don't claim to have a right to do anything, but my char is built to hold just as a brute is built to smash.
I've fought a lot in Sirens Call recently and there are often big groups with several defenders/controllers with empathy, and stacking clear minds on each other pretty much renders me useless.

Any good PvP defender will have CM on the about 90% of the team for the duration of an arena match.
On the squishies yes, those with mez protection are on their own ; ). And all PvPteams brings break free's even if they have superb empaths. Thing is the empath might die so we have BFs as back up, but while the empath is alive they can keep about 4-5 people covered.

Well you're on onion and so I can't comment being on defiant but in all the time I've been running around Siren's I;ve never had someone cast CM on me.
