Making a mind/kin atm for pvp tho the only thing I hear is that they can't manage alone (probaly cause of the fact that they have no pets:P)

Anyone experience with mind trollers in pvp?^^

(please don't make me remake him in fire or something alike:P)

Eat a stack of reds, kill opponent really fast then TK him Into a corner for the rest of the fight.

Mind trollers do very good in solo PvP, but u gotta keep ur opponent at bay. Bearing in mind most of the kin buffs are ranged, not sure if thats the best combo (prolly syphon speed would be somehow useful tho, and transfussion spamming could do in melee too). Anyway for a solo PvP with mind as a primary i'd poss consider storm as the best secondary... but i know u wont get another stormie

Storm best secondary for solo PvP...? Nah.

Kin and Rad are far better.

probably rad. Doesn't require a to hit check on most powers. Try hitting an Eluded SR scrapper with your kin powers. I don't think you'll be very lucky.

Rad is awesome but in a team based PVP scenario or even the zones I dont think Rad is dynamic enough, you see green goo, you or the rest of your team find the rad and smack him silly and the effects are gone.

rad is very good indeed

but trying to run enervating field and radiation infection+TK is VERY end heavy..and since you have no pets to do the damage...I wonder..

Since when did conrollers need pets to do damage?, I could allmost outdamage my pets pre containment and with 2-3 phantasm.

Just take the blasts from the epic and slot them, they can bloody well outdamage anything if you slot for it. 3*Damage from containment in PvP means alot. I have been 1 hit killed at lvl 50 by a controller on my blaster. Dont say they havent got damage outside pets.


50s
controllers: Ill rad , grav rad, fire kin, ice kin
blaster: ice em
scrapper: spines sr

I meant pre-epic freon:P

my illu/kin does very good damage 2 with epics but pre epics you still want pets in a 1on1...but will try a rad in that case then:P

Yeah, but he's talking about Solo PVP. In Solo Rad is better. I teams I would pick Kin(mmmmm speedboost *drool*).

Well, for solo PVP TK is best used to easily stack a hold on someone. You won't need to run it that long to achieve that. Also, why would you need TK at all, if you already have 2 debuffs on someone? Personally I find TK much handier in a team environment.

I never said i considered storm as the best secondary for solo pvp, i just said its IMHO, the one that best suits with mind.
U only have to look at my toons to see which secs i consider the best tho

Occasionally I have to solo with my mind/empath troller, and it pretty much equals frequent death to me. On the rare occasions that I get to go 1 v 1 with a villain, I find I don't really do enough damage to get an outright kill - I can probably take MMs, and I have dropped a couple of stalkers, but most of my damage comes from one move - levitate. My whole gameplan therefore depends on me keeping someone held with dominates so I can levitate and fear with containment. If the villain has a break free, they're gone and I lose my kill. If the villain does not have a break free, I can usually keep them busy, but when mez suppression hits, they can drop a green and pretty much gain back all the HP I have taken from them before the mez kicks in again. Usually, when I am fighting a villain, a hero will swoop in and finish them off, leaving me with no bounty due to the relatively low amount of damage I can deal.

However: I find I really excel in a team environment, I swoop in, drop dominate and fear, swoop back out to avoid any lurking stalkers and let my more damage orientated team mates take over. When they are pummelling, I swoop back in and top up the dominate, adding a TK for good measure if I think the villain is about to run. My low damage output isn't an issue in this scenario, as I serve two purposes - keeping the target rooted, and healing any teammates who need it, meaning I don't have to worry about not doing enough damage to kill and get my bounty.
