I honestly hate to see anyone ganged up on with forum PvP, but I wanted to say that you CAN make any build, max out the IOs and PvP with it...but that does not mean you are going to do very well. I can think of a bunch of builds that are going to suck in fiteclubbing/zone/arena regardless of how much money you spend on maxing out IOs.|

There are reasons why Psi/EM & Elec/WP definitely do not suck and are actually considered top tier powersets for PvPing.

You know nothing about pvp but spout these non sense numbers about chain induction doing a 1000 damage yet fail to take into account base resist that every toon in a pvp gets. You know almost as much as pvp as you do about pve so stop giving others bad advice in both fields. I seem to remember you were leaving the forums for good it was one of the things i was looking forward to not having to read your mis information ahh well trolls will be trolls I guess. edit: p.s. i love getting reactions like yours for having the number 666 tied to my name |
i didn't realize WP was that good for Stalkers in PvP, or at least better than regen. i guess i haven't paid enough attention to current PvP preferences for Stalkers. My only two Stalkers of any level are Elec/Nin and DM/Nin, and oddly enough i've never taken either into PvP even though i use less optimal combos like my Dark/Ice Def, Widow and PB.
What is it that makes WP more popular now than Regen for Stalkers? Is it the more layered mitigation with click heals, +hp, resists, regen and +def as compared to regen being mostly click heals, +regen and some +hp?
Also, DM or Elec?
(Might drag one of the two i mentioned into a PvP zone just to see how they fare.
)

stalk WP gets reconstruction which is nice and also has a constant +HP buff instead of just with DP (which can't be perma in pvp)|

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.

Ah, okay. i thought not being able to perma DP might've had something to do with it. It kind of sucks that the Stalker hp cap is so low anyway.|

Also, unless things have changed in the few months that I have been gone...you don't have to build for KB for /WP stalkers. It's an all around real sturdy set that can be cheap to build compared to /Regen.

WP also has in-set perception and decent resists to common damage types (smash/lethal/psi).

Besides, not all of my advice is bad at all,Also to point out to ou that the "Base" Numbers for that 1000 is what PvP damage is.the damage resistance that everyone gets doesnt calculate into that number.Its the mathmatical number from the +200% damage boost from both BU and FE, Chain Inductions nearly 300 damage base by level 50 and 3 Damage SOs applied to it.
And reguardless if you have friends on the forums or not.Little insulting tidbits to get other morons like PC Guy and Tamaki to chime in like little crownies that like to gang up on someone when they really have nothing to say in the first place.
Like Gnatts at a BBQ.Freakin Annoying.
And I kinda like Orcs and Trolls, so your not really insulting me.I think ill dedicate my next toon to everyone on the Forums and name it the Wirey Haired Man Goblin!Just for fun!
As for bad advice?Your one to talk.You only chime in when you belive you can win a fight or argument.Thats a oppertoonist if I ever seen 1.
there is no where (mids, in game, city of info) to verify CI doing 1k damage.
im extremely tempted to post this in the pvp forums and let them tell you that you have NFC what you're talking about. you haven't substantiated your posts with facts, you haven't given solid information, you make claims that are flat out wrong and you don't defend them and instead name call. you good sir, perpetuate the stereotype of pvpers being jerks.
EDIT: CI's base damage isn't 300 or rather it is if every "jump" hits. which on a single target they wont so CI's actual damage will be much much less than that.
