I would go plant/psi because of roots, and creepers. Mostly roots, it does the most damage of all AOE immobs and is a great follow-up to seeds.
-
Since it is occasional arena, I would go therm since a heal in the zones is pretty useful.
-
I have a sonic/dark corr and do fine. sonic/therm and elec/therm are good too, but different. I am leveling a sonic/rad at the moment.
The sonic/rad will probably do the most damage followed by the /therm. The /therm would bring -recovery of course. The elec/therm is the sapper.
My sonic/dark brings some damage, a lot of to hit debuff (also damage debuff) and the big heal. Also, a lot of mez. -
Sell the IO and buy the +acc kismet.
-
Particularly:
Capped the base duration of all mezzes in PvP zones and Arena to 4 seconds. Strength mods can still increase the duration of the mez beyond 4 seconds.
Q1, strength is enhancements and/or powerboost?
Q2 Devastion proc and the heavy hold also follow this new rule? -
Yep, tank hit me like 5-6 times IN A ROW. Forgot to check combat logs and the chances. Guess it could have been a fluke.
I agree about /regen. Pretty good. Not sure how good against other stalkers [Rogue]. -

How are shark and dark holds broken?

They hit like a tun of bricks, can have 3 damage procs, and Soul Storm makes you go through the knockdown animation with out suppressing knockback.
Its sad when your epic HOLD does more damage than anything in your primary. I'm not crying though I love the holds. For my team build I use phase/Soul Storm,PB and for my Zone build or 1v1 i use Leadership/Hybernoob. Great pools.
But I guess the same goes for hero side too. Stone mastery's hold hits for more than KB blow for tankers. Dominate does more damage than anything in /Psy for fenders. and Seismic Smash hits harder than anything a troler can put out in containment or not.

Well, they are dot so they, on paper, appear better than they actually are. Nonetheless, dot is very useful for zone pvp.
I would argue that they are EPIC and they have huge recharge timers and activation times. Hence the amount of damage.
PS I didn't really think about the animation for the soul hold. -
The hold proc needs to be changed. Its too good.
It would be nice if one mez type didn't cause suppression in others. It would at least make people stock up on multiple mez types and provide more variation in pvp builds. Also make mezzing ATs a little more dangerous. -

Def does suck again in PVP. Case in point, my /EA with Overload, demonic, shadow meld all running at the same time was hit repeatedly by an SS tanker. Moreover, I hit him a couple times with DM.
With PVP IOs (TP res, I'm looking at you) there is no reason to pick /EA over /WP especially since /WP gets a heal.
[/ QUOTE ]
Considering youre fighting a SS that has a Constant BU Running in the background its not unheard of. Especially since Rage is stackable.
[/ QUOTE ]
I know, just don't agree that it should be the case. His one power, maybe two (FA), is negating my standard shield PLUS Overload PLUS shadowmeld PLUS an accolade (I also have a few KC IO sets). -

didnt the tp resist in ea and ela get nerfed recently where it still needed a small orange to be tp protection? or am i thinking wrong?
[/ QUOTE ]
Nope, it was fixed in a recent patch.
The TP-Protection in my ELA/EA Brutes work just fine now.
[/ QUOTE ]
Yep, mine is working too. -
Can you guys help me out. Getting my necro/storm up to 50 soon.
Currently, planning on mace for scorpion shield and the -jump, -fly effects from the hold and immobs. Also, powerboost looks interesting.
What gives me pause is, would I be better suited with a res armor? -

Damage before and after for my perma plant/psi and my non-perma mind/em.

I went down to SC and it was like "ZoMg!!! who's popping!?!?!"
[/ QUOTE ]
LOL.
Do you have a controller of the same name? I think I fought you a couple times.
[/ QUOTE ]
yes my troller is a dying breed from issues past, but at least now i can drop a few flyers here and there ;P otherwise you flying people would have free kills all the time.

I thought that's why Castle said - on every occasion PSW changes were mentioned - that he'd be increasing the rest of the set as well.
[/ QUOTE ]
What do you want? An average AOE set with average ST or a great AOE set and average ST? If your answer is the former, then /fire, /thorns would be great for you. -
Well, with build options:
The blaster could go Cold and get hoarfrost, frozen armor and flash freeze. That with a high base hp gives him plenty of survivability (albeit, later on).
If we do consider primaries, he could go sonic for sirens song and screech, or fire for RoF. All those have good mitigation.
There is also WoC. -
Primaries aside, the AOE situation is more risky for a dom than a blaster. Blasters have 20% more hp. Also, blaster version is on 16 targets, and could get aim and concentration boosts.

Why do you feel the need to kill people not interested in fighting you, unless in a duel ?
[/ QUOTE ]
I log into the zone. How do I know who is interested in fighting me and who is not? I assume everyone is interested in fighting everyone. If someone sends me a tell and politely asks to be left alone for one reason or another, I go along with that request. If someone sends me a stream of tells that just say "Loser!" over and over again (as happened last night), I will make it a point to kill that person whenever I can, regardless of what they are trying to do. Maybe some folks react differently and say "Oh, now that you've called me a loser a bunch of times, I know my place, and see that you clearly deserve the utmost respect. Please provide me with instructions of who I'm allowed to attack and when. I'll be sitting in the corner until I receive your instructions. Anxiously awaiting your reply Master!"

My Zone Dueling Rules:
We fight on site. Anything goes. It starts when I enter the zone, and ends when I leave.
[/ QUOTE ]
I know it's silly to think that everyone in the zone should follow the rules I choose to apply to my own behavior. I wish everyone else realized how silly it is to try and impose their made-up rules on everyone else in the zone.
If two people are trying to duel, I generally choose another target (if available), but I reserve the right to attack anyone I want at any time (since my target in already dueling ME by MY rules).
[/ QUOTE ]
LOL, wonder if that was me? I didn't send a tell, but a broadcast with "loser, loser, loser". But that was in response to a drone kill. -
I pvp a lot with my sonic/dark.
What you need:
+recovery uniques.
Every scrap of acc set bonus you can find.
Devastation proc in every attack.
