I've seen a lot of good Crabs out there that can pretty much cremate(sp?) blasters, trollers, and def's. But im not sure if I should go with a Crab or Bane. Suggestions?...besides neither?

Neither TBH, the new pvp has made the VEATS not perform near as well as they used to.

But if I had to pick one, I'd go with the Bane.

wrong. a good bane is pretty useful.
you just aren't gonna play the blaster role.

Crabs were amazing before the pvp changes. I could take down wp and regens but i quickly got tired because it felt like a MM

Not as good as a widow. And those aren't that good either. But yeah, a good player can make it be useful for a team.

eh, as disruption, a well played bane will be better than a widow. it can do anything the widow does (insane acc is insane acc), and run around at 1700 hp too.

I am a big fan of the Banes for PvP... What would u guys pick for Power pools? I seen some with Phase Shift or Aid Self or even Tough. Is an escape (Phase)on a bane built for high HP needed?

But widow gets elude. So I guess it's a tradeoff. Extra HP vs much higher defense.
