PvP noob looking for suggestions

Hey all,

Used to pvp at times prior to the changes and used to do quite well. Now my current pvp toons are below average at best.

Was hoping some people would give some suggestions on red-side classes and powersets that are doing well in current pvp. I don't need to be uber, but i don't want to be gimped either.

Thanks in advance

I hear Elec/Thermal is doing quite well.

Sonic/pain corr is pretty versatile, maybe sonic/TA for zone teaming.

Both have the advantage that they are also fun to level... not the case with all PvP toons

You might want to revamp your builds rather than rerolling. List what you have and I betcha people in the pvp forums will be happy to tell you whats viable that you already have,as well as, how to tweak the build to get it current.

I've seen a couple of mind control/elec assault dominators doing reasonably well in Siren's Call.


Eastern Standard Time (Australia)
is 15 hours ahead of
Eastern Standard Time (North America)
which is 5 hours behind
Greenwich Mean Time (GMT)

that's great in the new pvp system. /ele has build up, which since doms damage multiplier is much higher, is much more useful. And mind has levitate.

PvP Redux is discontinued, for obvious reasons. Thanks to everyone who helped and joined.

thanks, i guess i've never thought of /elec because of the things i've heard about it for pve

good idea to revamp what i have

here are my 50s on the server that i want to play:

corr: fire/cold, fire/sonic, ice/rad, fire/kin, sonic/kin, ice/thermal
brute: ss/stone, fire/fire, ss/sd, db/wp, dm/sr
dom: fire/fire
mm: bots/storm
widow/fort and crab/bane
also have a stalker at 47- em/sr


if none of those are very good, i could play blue
my toons in upper 40s and 50 are:

scrap: dm/fire, spines/fire, spines/dark
blasters: fire/ice, fire/fire, ice/elec, arch/mm
cont: fire/kin, ill/rad
defen: kin/ice


oh, and i want to play mainly in RV, both teaming and solo

thanks again,
any suggestions appreciated

The Fire/Cold corr and the Fire/Fire Dom would work best. You could probably make the Bots/Storm work as well.

The fire/fire brute, em/SR stalker, and spines/fire scrapper would also be fairly good, if you like playing melee. Not top tier, but you could make them work.

Second the above choices.

I think all of your corrs except the kins would do well in RV. Even kins can be fun by using transference to suck their end really fast. Take that with a grain of salt though, I am not a corr or kin expert.

That arch/mm blaster built right could wreck some face as well.


Duel me.
I will work on my sig pic more when I have time.

thanks for all the help

will play around with the different suggested builds on mid's

Speaking of Fire/Fire Doms, I also have one at 50. Anyone got a build for it? Mine is a complete mess and shelved, atm.

hmm my suggestion would be to /uninstall and move onto a game that fully supports pvp.
