Just curious...

Hey there

I've been playing CoX for just over a year now, and have never really tried the whole PvP side of the game. Well I think it's about time I gave it a whirl, and so I look to the more experienced PvPers for advice.

Along with the toons in my Sig, I'm currently lvling a Kat/SR scrapper and an MA/Regen scrapper, and would like to know which (if any) of them would be a viable choice for taking into places like Sirens, BB and possibly even Warburg.

As yet none of the toons in question have a dedicated PvP build, but that's something that can be worked towards as I continue to lvl them, with a final respec some time in the future.

Any advice would be a huge help, as I'd really like to enjoy all aspects of the game and not just the PvE side of things (after all, there's only so many times you can beat down the same AV's before it gets a bit dull really)

Thanks in advance

Scrappers are a good bet. Your illusion should also be playable, a lot of villains dont take +perception powers yet and get no +perception buff. In fact illusion controller can potentially out-stalker a stalker.

Not strictly true; Clarity from the Corruptor Sonic Secondary gives +perception. But your chances of getting it as a random buff in a pvp zone is slim to none.

It's avaialble at level 35 so there is no chance in Siren's or BB Your main problem on illu in those 2 zones will be from /sr stalkers.

If you want to get involved with some good PvP, come along to Pocket D on test tonight at 8.

Both ur scrappers are good. the regen one might be a bit more sruvivable and MA does more damage then katana. It stuns too. But both your trollers would rock in a duel

Just to clarify....

When you say duels I assume 1 on 1 match ups, (taking place in the Arena for hero Vs hero fights if both toons are below Warburg lvl).

Am I totally off the mark, or is that pretty much right, 'cause if it is I might just have to drag a few friends there for a little practice......

I think I can safely say by "duel" he means in the Arena, facing someone at the same level as you and preferably at level 50. For this, both illu/rad and fire/rad are very good.
