Elec/WP is a very solid contender in both PvE and PvP. Elec/Regen and Elec/Nin as well (though those two cost more to make as viable).
I'd avoid DB/DA, or any DA really, if you're looking at PvP.
"the reason there are so many sarcastic pvpers is we already had a better version of pvp taken away from us to appease bad players. Back then we chuckled at how bad players came here and whined. If we knew that was the actual voice devs would listen to instead of informed, educated players we probably would have been bigger dicks back then." -ConFlict
Yeah, they say Elec/WP is the cheap PvP build (because you can cap your HP without accolades) and Elec/Regen is the expensive one but is more survivable. Elec mainly because Thunderstrike does awesome damage and when it crits (50% chance) it hurts more than a Total Focus crit.
And if you go /Nin, you'd better find a way to fit 41 points of KB protection in the build, this can get expensive.
Keep in mind that for PvP you'll need to pick Stealth (pool power) and have a stealth IO in Sprint or Superspeed.
Thanks alot. With wp is shadow meld recommended?
Willpower has more passive regen than Regen does. Who thought that was a good idea?
Can we get a fix for Energy Melee instead of more new sets?

For PvE, yes. It does wonders for me on my Claws/Will. For PvP, thinking you'll wanna go with Hibern00b.

It has a split critical in PvP, just like it has in PvE - the single-target portion always criticals, and that gives it a slightly higher damage than a Total Focus critical (base damage of 290.22 for TS vs 253.41 for TF). The AoE portion - the 50% chance - pushes it close to Assassin's Shock damage (386.96 for TS vs 389.28 for AS).|

I have been playing since around issue 1, and I love my melee types, well, I love scrappers and brutes. However, I would like to get into stalkers some. My only problem is, I want be able to do well at both PvE and PvP. Which power sets would you recommend, and which would you recommend staying away from?
