IMO, Psy is tops followed by Arch, then sonic then fire.
EM is the status quo due to PB, BR, PT, and TF. MM competes in that it gives you some help against stalkers with the AoE confuse aura, but if you're going to be straight optimal and 100% PvP go with a Psi/Em and kill everything in front of you.
The reason I put arch above the others is cause of the range plus it has more up front dmg than sonic, DoT doesn't really = Burst dmg.
Power Boost? What does that do for a blaster who isn't elec or ice?
A game is not supposed to be some kind of... place where people enjoy themselves!
All blaster primarys have secondary effects.Sonic's is -resistance,Energy is knockback,Archery is lethal damage,etc.

Archery's secondary effect is range and +acc built into its attacks. Even with that non of the things you listed are effected by pb. In pvp now the only time pb is really useful is if you are doing alot of arena with dr off against high defense or have an aid self pff build.

Duel me.
I will work on my sig pic more when I have time.
Oops about Archery....forgot it's secondary was acc.
But PB is "suppose" to affect these but I forget sometimes that nothing works like it's "suppose" to pvp.
/agree on Aid Self. PB plus Aid Self is wonderful. I used to do it in zone PvP. Until i13 anyway.
For Psy Blast, be sure to take all the single targets and to slot Will Domination with a Chance to Placate Proc..

Those things have never been affected. The only real pvp change to pb is that it no longer effects kb, and if they hadn't changed that kb would be even more powerful than it is currently.

PB can Boost your def for 10s at a time, and while it may seem like nothing, the way I play every lil bit helps. Plus it's a power I can save on slots. Doesn't take 3 slots do make it do what I want.
PB is useful for using with aim, it's boost the Def of all +Def powers. PB Aidself is nice. PB also boost mez effects like Stun from TF, or Stun from your primary if you have one. Some primaries have other mez's that can be PB'd. With mez being so short, every lil bit helps.
If you want be 100% top build competetive those things you'll need. I'm not sure but i don't think PB boosts HF's Heal.

On a high end build just aim will eaily cap your tohit with dr on. With just build up it will as well if you are running a tactics build. It doesn't boost the heal in hoarfrost nor does it boost the defense in frozen armor sadly. The mez boost is kinda a meh. Like I said before the only way I would bother to take it these days is with an aid self build.
That or you were doing dr off arena matches.

unless you are going for a PFF aidself build PB is not necessary. It will be nice when rad is proliferated though.
pb + tf squishies?
Since I don't need any exp with any of my main toons, I'm thinking of starting a 100% PVP build and getting it to a high level with double XP.
I'm guessing that blasters are the way to go with a 100% PVP build. What other ATs are competitive?
The primries rank as psy, sonic, and fire, from what I've heard. What about secondaries? Does mental compete in any way with EM? Is EM just popular for TF and BR or is there more to it?
