Recently when i've been pvping in the zones all i see is energy melee blasters, energy melee brutes, energy melee tankers and energy melee stalkers.

I have 3 energy melee toons my self. I think they should reduce the stuns chance of the powers it's too great. Makes it a pain playing a squishy. What do you guys think of this.

I know my part of this is kind of late but hey im part of the forum too :P
I disagree with this, i reckon if you havent got any protection against disorientations then you kind of deserve to be disorientated :P Just one of those power sets that is uber against sets that got no protection, and nowhere near as good against a set that does *regen a good example as i think it has two resists against disorientations?*
Im one of those people that NEVER want any powers weakened in any way, i like facing a challenge in pvp, because what you have to remember is that nothing is unbeatable ;p
*btw sorry about the spelling, its late lol*

only a few i know of, break frees (popped on a regular basis) self heal from the medicine pool (constant spam as it doesnt last long) and obviously buffs from others, but we'll say for now its a buffless grp or individual etc

so considering above, i'd hardly say (IF u got none of the above etc) its not deserved

mostly as not all builds can factor in the power pools with the primary and secondary, to certain pvp zone lvls. i.e. i found it hard just to fit in tactics for sirens lvl on emp/psy etc

i just think it's ridiculous being perma stunned in the zones when i play a squishy. Either buff the other sets or tweak the stuns bonesmasher having a 75% chance to stun is too powerful for me and since when is that long animation time?

[/ QUOTE ]

u cant be perma stunned any more than you can be perma held in pvp (except in specific situations but stuns cannot achieve this)

bonesmasher is one MELEE attack and if you manage to get into melee combat then you deserve to reap the benefits, what you going to whine at next? Screech? Beanbag? These are FAR more effective stuns, if the amount of /em blasters is causing you a problem you may want to spend more time practicing than moaning as you more than most should know how to deal with them.

Pffft if anyone even thinks of comming after Screech then they will have to get past me and a big hammer

I play /en on my main pvp character and sure it is powerful but it does have its risks, personaly I hate going into melee with my blaster me going into melee range usually end up with me getting stunned/immobed/mezzed in fairly quick speed.

I do wonder if perhaps it is overused due to the lack of players in pvp?
When the zones were busy and we had a few teams going, most of us had little time to use our melee secondaries, compare that to when the zones are emptier and I end up living off of my melee pool.

/Em does hit hard but it does lack the versatility of other pools, I would gladdly drop a number of powers from it if I could gain another ranged power or two
