There's a difference between needing a specific build, and just going in with a pve build :P
Triumph is dead enough that you don't need a fotm 20bil inf toon to pvp with. Can pretty much pvp with anything here, as long as you actually slot it like a pvp toon. Hell I've even been "pvping" with my pve fire/kin trollah.

fair enough, i misused the word build. In the first one I meant anyone going to pvp with a pve build is going to get owned. in the second i meant that you power selection and AT doesn't really matter so long as you build for pvp. as tam said, being triumph, you aren't going to need a 20 bil inf psy/em to do well in pvp, no one is gonna have that hardcore of a build and use it on triumph(well atleast now anyway)

I haven't tried since the free server transfers but don't really see things having improved for some of us at all.
I'm phail at pve most of the times too, i blame the rig, internets at mah house, and lack of funds/motivation to improve either.
me = fat kid picked last at kickball
at the same time, i don't mind showing up every once in a while to pvp stuff. I've even tried to make a pvp toon (mental/sonic blaster), but lvling him became annoying. Stuff that's really good at single target takes a long time to solo up to 50. my poor little blackbird is still lvl14.
but you don't need a specific build to do amazing in arena/zone. yea psi and sonic are the best bets but fire and archery can work as well.
my point is that since i13 took basically all skill out of pvp, so long as you know the rules and build for them, pretty much anything can pvp ok. yea some stuff does it better than others, but nothing that you'll find on triumph anyway. some of the good things about being a phailpvp server is that we haven't had to deal with smack talking in a while and its not hardcore at all. i mean anything short of warshades and some defenders, built correctly, it doesn't matter what you pvp with(on triumph).
