Ummm.... Help? ..... Please?!
I would point you to the PVP boards Thats what usually happens around here tbh when people ask about pvp builds. though now that you brought it up and I have plenty of time, I bet I can come up with something pvpesque for fun May try it to see and compare when you get some real help heh

Just for fun... threw something together to be laughed at by current pvpers though without going too crazy that would be something I would pvp with atm. PB with BS & TF was always a potent 1 2 3.

Positron's i13 letter: We are trying to make PvP more accessible to new players, while giving experienced PvP'ers the advantage that comes with formulating tactics around the new systems we're putting in place. PvP from now on will be on our priority list. If something isn't working out, we'll be in there tweaking it and making it work, for the entire future of the product, not just Issue 13.
Here's a simple build without any enhancements. Can't really slot any IO's in there since I don't know what the person prioritizes. Is this for a team PvP? Arena? Zones? 1v1? Just a general build?
Most PvP Blasters go for defense bonuses and/or +global recharge bonuses.
Rad primary is very bad for PvP. Your highest single-target damage power, aside from snipe, is still weaker than Bone Smasher =|. I would recommend a good amount of -def for a Rad/ simply because that's all the Rad/ primary is good at doing. Have enough +tohit so that you can land your primary on defense-based toons for your -def to take effect. Then take them out with your high damage melee powers.

look, you want to slot for + hp and around 50 rech. don't slot for defense cuz DR will hit it hard. you're going to want to slot for range (2 glad jav's is 7.5) and stack boost range. rad depends on proc slotting ie neutro bolt and cosmic burst. also, in contrast with this crappy build, you want ss/sj/fitniss/leadership and ice mastery along with hp cap and 41+ kb. don't take any melee unless you have a free slot in which case it really doesn't matter since they'll all come out to about the same DPA (bone smasher's damage is low but TF will root).
rad isn't a very bad primary as this guy says but it isn't the best either. its probably tied with fire and archery for third behind sonic and psi.

this is even worse than the other build and has absolutely no useful information in it.

So let me set the scene. In my SG we are talking about builds and someone asks "Whats the best build for an archery blaster?" and I happen to have one so I tell him my build. Then someone asks "I am thinking of making a fire/rad troller." and I that happens to be my oldest and best build so I tell HIM my build.
THEN someone says "whats a good build for a */storm MM?" and, again I have one so I tell him my build.
So while everyone is saying how good/sad I am for being able to answer all build questions and while I am feeling REALLY SUPERIOR and dead smug I get a pvt tell from nowhere. I didnt log it but to paraphrase:
"Hey, could you tell me the best build for a PVP Rad/nrg blaster?"
And like an idiot, I say "Sure, give me a few days to play around and I will let you know"
And heres the problem.... I have never made a PVP build in my life. I wouldnt know a decent pvp build if it came and slapped me in the face. In fact whenever I dare to enter a pvp area my *** is kicked from the Rogue Isles to Breakfast time.
So I turn myself over to the all worldly knowledeable people of the forums. Where do I start???? If I am a rad blaster in pvp what do I want? recharge? regen? recovery? resistance? defence?
Don't get me wrong I am not expecting someone to say "Hey Ace here is the best pvp build for a rad/nrg blaster in the world.... ever...." all I want is someone to point me in the right direction. Where do I start if I am a pvp blaster.
oh and incidently, I have two blasters..... neither of them are rad/nrg. so I have no idea what we are dealing with.
Could someone sort my life out PLEASE!!!
