rad/rad pure support build

Here's my latest ponderings on Irradiators future PvP build. As hard as it was to admit, rad blast kinda sucks for PvP so I've gone for a pure team assistance build. One thing I've noticed with my current build is that it end is not a problem in the slightest, it's always full unless I do an EMP so I've decided to get rid of the fitness pool in favour of leadership. I took fallout to do that Unfender thing a few posts down the page, since people are always dying in PvP

I'd like to hear from anyone who's tried out choking cloud in PvP. Is it really worth my time? If not I'll probarbly get grant invis or something.

Take a peep, tell me what you think.

Choking cloud is a moderate deterrent to stalkers in PvP, thats it main advantage i find.

Fallout is just to slow with to small an AoE to matter much in PvP unless you are fighting a stone tank or some highly immobile enemies.

Teleport for is much more useful than recall freind in PvP

Not a big PvPer myself but am a rad user

Hmm, that's pretty much what I imagined for choking cloud in PvP. Mind you, I want to be good support in PvE too, and choking cloud is awesome for that. Hearing them all gurgle away is magic

I think I'll be swapping out Proton Volley for Grant Invis

Recall friend is for using someone's corpse as a portable bomb/vengence buff before I res them

Great tactic PvE... you will need lightning reflexs to use in PvP tho

Sacrilage! ^__^

moving on...

Your intended build, is very similar to what Capt has now. The build I currently have I believe is fantastic PvE and competant in PvP (took down a SStrength/Stone Brute with it...so can be to bad).

I would say keep Fitness Power Pool for good mobility about the map. Also bring in Total Focus in favour for Proton Volley as an attack (of course shuffle around Fly if you are to take it). Aim...with the amount of debuffs we Rads do and Tactics from Leadership...I feel is not greatly needed.

Thanks for the input! I'm not really bothering with attacks except the awesome cosmic burst and perhaps Irradiate for it's defence debuff. You're right about the mobility thing, it's something that does really bother me. Being able to bounce around in PvP will save you from a lot of the melee damage. I'll have to take on test and see what I can do with it I guess. It's always a risk not taking stamina. Aim is for Fallout and EMP but I could just juggle the slotting and get rid of it.
