Hello. I have been debating on making a invul/SS, fire/SS or wp/SS. I've seen some really good Fire/ out there and they seem to be the best.

Granite!

But it mosty depends on your slotting. U got cash, anything can be good in PvP.

(i would pick Inv or fire, personaly).

Your best tanker for PvP, in my limited experience, is a grav/thermal defender.

Energy melee is still king of single target burst damage; but your target is going to be miles away before you can land a follow up, unless you have an agreement for a stand-up fight.

Some of the mot reliable PvP tanks I see nowadays are Invul/Stone Melee. Not sure the reasoning behind it, but like the others said, almost anything will be good with enough money. Tanks aren't very picky.

the biggest fotm at the moment thanks to the new changes is a wp/ss tank or invul/ss

basically super strength is the key no matter what you use as a primary.

the toohit in rage lets you hit through thier 9's now..everyone uses it and its over kill in r.v. nowadays..i have no doubt like e.m was...ss will get its nerf next time around and like the other nerfs it will be needed

kob has a kb,taunt and hold in one hit ...that goes along ways now not to mention the way they killed kb you need at least 14 kb to not get knocked down for kob alone.

some of the others are ok..but thay extra toohit is king right now..castles brillance at work..

Yup, rage currently is way to go. Add FA and its really big time going.

Although i dont know the exact changes for the new PvP system, is unresistable damage still ingame?

WP/SS seems to be king of the arenas right now.

i fought one the other night on my fire/fire tank

we stale mated until sudden death then dot = wins

chalked up a very unhappy wp/ss tank..this is a very good lesson though to understand what pvp is and how its played in both arena and pvp zone.he didnt know about sudden death in duels.

although ill admit those pvp procs hurt like hell in a one on one...the -res is a killer one to have

I have a WP/SS brute atm, and he is real squishy. I see some really good Fire/SS's a lot. They can heal quite a lot. Which seems like a great advantage.

So Fire/SS or Invul/SS?
