The currently FotYear PvP Blaster is Ice/Energy. Ice is the highest ST damage dealer from the primary, and Energy from the Secondary, taking down a Tank pretty quickly. And for tough Corruptors/Stalkers that you can't seem to get with your damage, you can stack all your Holds (from Ice) and Stuns (from Energy) until they are still/detoggled, leaving them open for a 2 shot







[/ QUOTE ]

actually elec ahs the highest st damage in melee range, enerergy melee wins because it has better self buffs.

[/ QUOTE ]

Not really, elec has more smash lethal damage, which is more often resisted, whereas energy has the higher energy damage component. Something like that, can't really remember the numbers.

No, I don't agree. Fire really is very good in PvP, highly under-rated!

Fire/Energy ftw!

[/ QUOTE ]
completely agree, fire/ is far more damagin than ice/

why does every constinuously bang on about fire have aoes, fire/ has 1 more aoe than ice/ and considering pvp blasting is mostly about secondary thats not really a problem

[/ QUOTE ]

Ice outranges fire though. If you don't have boostrange it counts for a lot!

Gratz mate! The paragon protectors been given a rest then?

You might want to look at controllers aswell, with heavy on the empathy secondary. My advice would be illusion/empathy controller-best support class (imo) in the game, it also rocks in PvP.

Ubah Gratz on dinging the big 5-0 with your elec/elec brute, thats number two brute for you now eh? Crikey i still need to get my villain out of breakout help pls! Well done mate, you kept it quiet but i just saw the post on union 50s heh!

Good luck with your next corrupter, and will loook out for you terrorizing the PvP zones

Indeed. I love power push. That IS predictable knockback that would work in this situation. I just love it in PvP as well, for knocking a MM way outside his Bodyguard cozyness!

[/ QUOTE ]

I agree Power Push is a great power to use and gives very reliable knockback. For those kinetics that do the whole KB into someone close to an ally and heal this would be the best power for the job (kin/nrg's that is) Its great for PvP aswell once their sapped, and for people that don't have KB protection. In my offender build with power push i could keep squishies perma floored and gave enough time for total focus to fire off. Great Power!

Damn!!! You took ages with that!! Finallly Gratz!!! Haven't seen you around in a long long time!

Dm/ninjitsu is the ultimate squishy killer, great stalktroller build, played with one during RV event and damn it was good.

Energy Melee and (imo) Martial Arts are sets that can do very well without AS. Eagles Claw critical is just fanastic along with placate crane kick, a squsihy is dead.

Katana has faster animations, lower endurance cost and lower damage.

Broadsword has slower animations, higher endurance cost (very high end cost) and much higher damage.

Both sets have the same DPS iirc, but broadsword has the higher burst damage.

I'd personally go katana over broadsword if i was invul secondary, broadsword endurance management with invul toggles is quite nasty. Katana also has hella cool animations :P

Hero builder gives 3slotted parry as 23.4% Which sounds kind of right, although i don't trust hero builder numbers.

For unyielding there is a 5% defence penalty which is countered by tough hide. Unyielding is a resistance power. Invul itself is a resistance based set, it also gains defence through the powers invincibility and tough hide. Invincibility scales with mob size and gives defence to all but psionic so is typed defence, as is tough hide which is passive.

You forgetting keith plighty boy? He's one of the biggest PvP-aholics in the swords

I'm a fan of elec/elec in PvE. I'd reccomend that.

AR is a nice primary aswell for PvE lots of AoEs!

Stupid defiant crash.... RAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWRRRRRRRRRR!!!!

Gratz Fire beetle on dinging the big 5-0, its been a pleasure to team with you on all of my toons, damn you and your outlevelling skillz

Good luck with your next project

Gratz at 50 fire beetle, gutted i wasn't there >_< Well deserved matey, your a fantastic player and a pleasure to team with

One minute i was teaming with powernova comparing my tri form peace bringer with his human form peacebringer next i am dc'd and the next i can log into anything on the internet but not the game (i dunno) so sorry powernova for my unexplained absence and sorry if i dont make it to the raid in time or tonight.


[/ QUOTE ]

Think you have the wrong person shannon :S I don't have a PB nor were teamed with you at the time!! I was doing some arena with plight!

[ QUOTE ]
Just a post out of thoughts towards large team pvps and such.

Make it more interesting by including villain groups as challangers etc, as from most things ive seen, ppl dont play against villains that much in arena matches, and stick on Heroes. Not a complaint, just a suggestion.

[/ QUOTE ]

Mate, we'll fight anything you guys put foward, if its PvP we're there. We'll do anything PvP even gladiator matches....(actually i take the gladiator matches back)

Oh hay and 1AT got dates their free for our match?

lol i like that little note bit at the end. Now someone fight us!!

[ QUOTE ]
Not fair in terms of:
- someone got bigger inventory
- someone got currently more/better inspirations
- someone only relys on inspirations instead of powers

[/ QUOTE ]

Well inspirations are affected by level, any player can obtain whatever size of inspirations they want. i don't understand what your last point implies. But i don't quite agree with you, inspirations are open to all so its fair.


[ QUOTE ]
no one says you must win vs trollers as a blaster. wheres the sense of a controller (using holds), when you can just nullify them with BFs?

[/ QUOTE ]

Controllers can burn through break frees very fast if their good, so it doesn't nullify the controllers powers entirely, they however give the blaster a fighting chance against the controller.

sounds fun, will pop down.

weapon mastery is awesome, don't know why more non spines scrappers don't go weapon. Weapon mastery gives you more utility.

leaping pool-combat jumping, superjump,acrobatics

stick 3jump heights in combat jumping and 3jump's in hurdle, best PvP movement power there is imo, esp coupled with superspeed.

Acrobatics is just so damn useful in PvP.

What role you planning on playing? PvP build or non PvP buils? Pure Support or offender? Or just a hybrid??

I'll hit ya back with some advice, and post my build when i get home

[ QUOTE ]
it will be a PvE build.

[/ QUOTE ]

fire/kinetics

Seriously, for PvE there seriously isn't a better character on ANY of the ATs, and don't let anyone tell you different. Fire/kin controllers level faster than any other build period.

[/ QUOTE ]

It doesn't level faster than your defender ya dirty Pling noob

Don't most people slot at least 2 toHit buffs in Aim?

[/ QUOTE ]
3 recharge is already enough slotting i can affort in those powers
If i see a Elude.. i just let a FA-scrapper handle it.

[/ QUOTE ]

FA won't hit through elude on its own, nor will FA with tactics 3slotted, only times it could hit through elude is with build up with tohitbuffs in it.

Elerith I love having behind me. Ive seen him and Freon accomplish almost impossible tasks eg. duoing 10-15 villains on their own.

[/ QUOTE ]

I rate them both (so not having a dig) but feel such tasks are probably due to the poor standard of villains they faced. I think most people would agree that in majority of cases, good team work amongst villains is a quite rare sight to see.

[/ QUOTE ]

That is very true, PvP standard of most villains in zones is quite low.

That video is just fantastic, you good sir have some talent!!! I love the prince song at the end fits in nicely, laughed at the batman lookalike lol.

I'm jealous at how smoothy the game runs for you!!!
