can the Americans transfer any chars over here? I believe it's easier to do? didnt you do so with stalk?
If so, then we at Retribution incorp. hereby invite them to ply their trade over here and show us noobs that have only been playing the game for nearly 2 years, how it is done.
I can guarantee almost every aspect of pvp has been played with over here. I honestly believe the skills of the guys I play with are second to none, so I truly believe we would make your over confidence in your hami-ridden friends vapourise in no time.
Thats my opinion, so go fetch!!
( shall we say test server next weds 8.30pm? be there or be afraid of the trans-atlantic flight! )

LOL 
Yes its easy to transfer but no offence I dont think any are going to leave their pvp laden shores and pay for the priviledge of fighting you 
On a serious note, I cant see you being happy with the amount of pvp on EU, Im enjoying freedom and would like to (and am) heartily recommending it to everyone, its a shame to see good players stuck where there is little to do.

Put your EU account on hiatus, grab a code from plaync.com and log in, it really doesnt take long to get to 50

Just on comparison, It took 5 months from me the first time and 11 months the second time. I can't stand the tedious leveling process for long plus I hope I still have a life. I know it can be done fast. Mostly the delay is due to my altitis though.

especially with people you know and depend on.

Which are all here.
Enough with the advertising. Talk about rad/rads for a change. I dueled a Rad/rad last night, name was familiar but I can't quite place it. Anyway I won, but just barely 3-2. Apparently he hadnt been playing for a while so maybe made couple mistakes because of that. The thought that he might be having telekinesis from epic pool had not occurred in my sleepdeprived head and so I didnt bring quite enough break frees. 
I wonder does it always boil down to telekinesis with PVPing defenders? Anyways, a rad defender seems a very feasible choice for PVP, at least on high level.
To discuss the basics of rad/rad I guess the important powers are radiation infection, lingering radiation, enervating field, accelerated metabolism and possibly radiant aura for self heal. I don't know how good EMP pulse is but I think its decent. Choking cloud is iffy, better not take it. Mutation possibly for combat rezzes.
Someone who knows more of the sets can advice slotting. I know that enervating field is an endhog and will need end reduxes.
And psychic mastery as an epic pool seems to fit a lot of defenders perfectly. Telekinesis can be awesome in PVP fights. Dominate, mind over body, telekinesis.

heroes get these powers as epics?
Sheesh, the villains ones really are pants by comparison. Btw. I'm not sure psychic assault for doms works the same as for psychic blast. SR's are still a bugger to hit.

some psi powers are untyped (not ranged, melee of aoe) and bypass defence based sets which is a little naughty given SRs description. They still need a tohit roll but you have as much chance of hitting an SR as with a regen

Tbh this is first I hear of this. This requires further experimentation .
stalk o bnot is right the illusion hold blind will hit sr as if it was regen
hehe just been into BB with the rad/rad defender and well .... lets just say he kicked [censored]!! so far beaten a brute, a stalker 3 outta 5 times and well lost to a MM but we'll ignore that :P pretty happy with the results SO FAR, sirens calls next, but finkin of gettin aerobatics, tough and weave to boost my defence since non at all. Any of you think i should take all 3? if not, any suggestions?
@Damz Find me on the global channel Union Chat. One of the best "chat channels" ingame!
Acro is useful, tough and weave not so much.
You're never going to be able to take damage as a defender. Acrobatics is useful to avoid knockbacks, but your focus otherwise should be on using Radiation Emmission to avoid taking it in the first place.
