How can I get the Arachnos mini blaster?

I pop into RV every now and then hero side and broadcast for a team, usually don't find one, and then leave. Whenever I've gone into the zone, there has never been any functional pvp that I could find. I think one single time, I got someone to actually duel me long enough for them to lose; other than that, I get jumped by multiple people, and anyone who gets low life just leaves, heals, and comes back to join the gang bang later. This is entirely useless to me.

I'm taking my main villain side for a couple of days to collect temp powers and I'd like to get an arachnos mini blaster. Is there a time when there are people who would invite me to a team and then actually collect victory points, or a time when I can get 4 duels with people who will actually stay to the end of the duel?

My main is unfortunately a stone tank, which is not so exciting in pvp. Teleport suppression makes jumping around less than satisfying. It's probably actually slightly better than other travel powers for escaping, but it's horrible for pursuing, so it's not like I can catch anyone who doesn't want to finish the fight. Also, it seems there is a strange protocol in the pvp zone where I'm not supposed to interfere with other people's fights, and in any reasonably even fight, all the enemies run, but when they have 3+ people, or at the very least a psionic plus a buddy, suddenly they're all bloodthirsty. With diminishing returns, it's uselsess to fight that, so I just run and zone.

sorry for rambling. Want arachnos mini blaster. Don't want to spend hours of wasted time in pvp zone in unworkable tactical situations. What should I do?

This things a real pain to get and I have only gotten it once myself. My suggestion find a buddy on redside(or blueside if your a villain) and just go back and forth taking over the pill boxes. Each turret gives 10 points and capture 25 points. It takes a while but is pretty easy and you only need 2 people, 1 from each side working together kinda timely though depending on how fast you guys can kill them.

edit: here's the page from wiki to check it out http://paragonwiki.com/wiki/Recluse%27s_Victory

If you can manage to kill the AVs it will speed you up quiet a bit as they give 250 points.

make sure its an off hour in pvp..if there are people sometimes if you ask nicely they will help you out or leave you alone
dont ever tell people something like " all you pvpers only know how to blankety blank" itll start nothing but trouble if u do start getting killed over n over i suggest leaving and then coming back when zone empty or the jerks have left

Also, don't tell anyone you're 'just here for the badges'. I had a guy following me around (me exclusively) just to kill me.

well if anyone has a hero who wants to trade pillboxes with me, let me know. I want to get back heroside soon.

Woo, got it. Thanks.
