EM Pulse: AV Killer?

How effective is EM Pulse at stopping AV Regen? Worth taking or is it not effective for long enough to make a difference - bearing in mind that it's a Nuke of sorts with full END drain?


Is it time for the dance of joy yet?

I haven't hit an AV with Thunderous Blast yet, I have that slotted that a bit for end drain, which should do the same -end recovery..

I think I'll try it out at some point..

edit: seeing as it's a nuke, I doubt it would scratch the actual endurance the AVs have, but could be useful for teams without a kin or rad to make an impact and get holds cycling on the target... I think.

it should be rubbish as a AV killer if used on its own as theres no way to make the -regen perma from it. In conjuction with other perma -regen it would certainly help

That's what I thought. Had been thinking of respeccing Ranger Emily from Munitions Mastery to Elec Mastery, but would probably be better off staying as a pure minion shredder.

you have no -resistance or +damage for your team, it should suck.

Post-I7, it doesn't seem to make too much of a difference, not on it's own.

It doesn't have full end drain, despite what the description may say. It costs about 25 end and stops your recovery for 10 seconds. Pop a couple of blues/hit Conserve Power and you'll have no problems.

trust me.. it sux big time.

The drain 'effect' nearly drains a even lvl boss with 3 endmod SO's and PowerBoost. But it has _no_ -recovery, only -regen. The -regen does seem extremely short, its actualy only the disorient that is usefull.
