Not too sure myself, I am eager to run in and help out bash AVs anytime, and defiance certainly helps. Worth a shot.
Though the plan was to just run around sniping things untill I get splatted 
Anyway.. I think the villians are likely wanting to get to 50 and get their taste of patron powers.
Yeah someone will want to be the "first" level 50 and be remembered and praised for it as a "legend" no doubt as well.
A mate said that tpin blasters in from the hosp whilst they are on 1 hp would aim for 500% as long as the blaster is tp'd in to maximum range of their ranged attacks i can see that very nearly happening.
He will honor his words; he will definitely carry out his actions. What he promises he will fulfill. He does not care about his bodily self, putting his life and death aside to come forward for another's troubled besiegement. He does not boast about his ability, or shamelessly extol his own virtues. - Sima Qian.

I know its a pvp zone but i didnt see many villains about last night being opportunistic looking to spoil peoples chances to get the AV badges, which is nice. I am a person behind my villain and i understand that there is a person behind a hero simply in the zone to get the AV badges and may have no interest in a PVPer looking to make their life hard and spoiling their fun sadly though imo there will be some looking for easy game to get their PVP rating up but for me whoever does that, has nothing to brag about.

The new zone is now 1 day old. Can we please not start this discussion already. It's a PVP zone, kill whomever you want whenever you feel like it. Badges be damned.

I'lldefeat anybody in the PvP zone on live servers. Test was different, but here the badges have the PvP risk factored into them, and if someone can't stand the PvP pressure while hunting, he doesn't deserve the badges IMO.

If you saw a mate who was tanking an AV and you was a brute would you take your mate out?

Yes. I'm a villain. It's my job. And I'd expect the same from my friends.
As a villian, I'd let them take out that rust-bucket Black Scorpion, that sorry excuse for tuna Mako, that limpet Scirroco and whoever that Recluse idiot thinks he is, but I will defend Ghost Widow untill my dying breath.
PvP zones getting interesting enough?
I distinctly remember being up late one night to go for a wee bit badge hunting. Siren's was dead so I decided to go for the badge closest to the villian base. I got sighted by those damn turrets and the mobs thereafter and barely scraped the badge and made it out. It felt like I'd earned it, but if badge hunters are saying 'leave us in peace!' it makes me wonder what they did to get that badge there.
Did you organise teams? Did you risk it and do it solo? Did you take advantage of a hero onslaught on the villian base for your own personal gain? Did you pummel your way through a villian player to get to that badge? Or get away after you got it?
The badges are an integral part of RV as much as anything else there, including PvP. If you're there solely for the badges, then you have to fight for them, the AVs and other players. It's a viable challenge at this level range IMO.
If everyone in the zone on either side was primarily badgehunters, it would after too many futile attempts could come down to "you scratch my back and i'll scratch yours" just to get it done. Its done in the pvp zones already with people looking to get their PVP ratings up or get things like the reformed badge. These are extents to which i most certainly dont go to. This is way OT now.

What Weasel said. Definately. Every time.
RV should be brutal, it should be no stop war and I really hope it turns out like than when villains get up to 50.
I was only thinking, on Tuesday, while 40 heros were mobbing the AVs, this is too easy. If there were stalkers in the mix, taking down the rads, and brutes ripping through the squishies, with bot mm's pouring on the fire from the flanks. Well... it would be a tough fight for sure. Bring it on.
Although Im a good-hearted person, and would stop if someone asks me to, I agree with the principle of it being a tough war zone. No quarters given..

btw about the blasters
i CANNOT stop myself from doing total focus, cos its just fun
hence why i chose fire mastery with self rez 
also, power burst, woop
So ya tanker has control of the AV ever thought about staying as a ranged attacker, most likely the coast will be clear from other villains as the AVs come to the pillboxes, ever thought about staying away from where the AV's aoes are going to be? on the tanker i mean? if ya stay out of the way of the area of effects you can properly drop in to get yourself to 5% health and start blasting the AV with your damage upped 400% quite happily, lets hope them tanks keep control of the AVs though and you stay safely out of range ot them pbaoes and aoes.
