Been gone for 35 days with lots more to go.
Don't know these people so Welcome Aboard I guess.

If I wasn't going to be deployed over the summer, I would take that time and visit and bring the wife and kids home (Ashland,Ky) to see the grand parents and we could come up to King's Island. Love the Vortex,Son-of-Beast and of course the Beast Coasters.
But HAVE FUN. HH.

"All the old PvP'ers left..."

I keep hearing that, but I sure don't see that in the pvp zones.

Old pvp RV was a ghost town...now I always find darth noobians to pound on.

In other words..."You have figured out one of the 100 reasons why 90% of the PvP playerbase quit the game when I13 came out" is flat out WRONG. It just simply isn't true. Your friends on your friendlist might have quit, but methinks they weren't all that good to begin with when their FOTMs lost some of their inherent advantages in old pvp.

I could post lists of accounts from multiple test team rosters that no longer play the game all due to the changes of i13. It wasn't because of the loss of FOTM or w/e you want to say, it was do to the fact that really i13 made PvP not as much skill based as it is button mashing therefore why decide to roll any new toons or readapt to the new changes since they just weren't much fun. We had adapted for every change that the devs had thrown out there because pre-i13 pvp was fun and fast paced, unlike it is now. I13 PvP is like running through mud neck deep, it is just so slow and taking the roles away from buffing, debuffing and support toons just made it rather boring and why waste time doing something that just isnt fun anymore.
We practiced 4-5 nights a week for 2-3 hours at a time, that is a large time commitment and with the changes it just wasnt fun or worth doing.

So it wasnt because of no FOTM's, I13 made worse FOTM's than anything before and if you want to say bs then why oh why did you only see shark throwing widows and stalkers villian side and mostly /sr scrappers, ice/* tanks and */em/force blasters in the zones after the release of i13?
We may have certain AT and powersets that worked the best in 8v8 arena matches but it was still more diverse than what you normally saw anytime after I13's release.

We had blasters, emps, sonics, rads, colds, ffr's, storms and every once in a while you could possibly see a scrapper or tank in the mix and then villian side you could see forts, corrs, mms, doms, brutes and stalkers. After I13 you would see far less diversity.

So maybe you should think before you speak or at least get your facts straight. Most of the "veteran/hardcore" PvPrs did leave the game or stop auto payment on their accounts, which have since expired, after i13 went into beta testing.

Ok sorry about the Psypunk post all.

what if he comes with ice/elec blaster build?....

[/ QUOTE ]

if that was his/her choice then I bet we could come up with a build that would be fun for him/her to play around with.

how about you say " I am thinking about making (insert AT), and this is my planned build (insert Mids data chunk or build). Any suggestions on how I can make it better?" and then we can help you out.

oh noes, not stalkerz...............

it be here:

PE GP Site

yup think so

well drop on in. It would be great to talk to you.

You speak like there was never, ever, ever any events run to introduce people to PvP. Hell, on Triumph, I was one of the more disliked people, and I still took an entire friday night along with Ohmzy to teach two new people to PvP.

[/ QUOTE ]

<---Ohmzy

and we still attempt to tell/teach the new to pvp people or the people getting ganked over and over or w/e you want to call them. If we have some room on a team we invite them and have even given them our vent info. Then we talk about builds and/or strategies or whatever kind of help it seems they need. Of course a lot of the time people are hard set on their builds and dont want to hear about or let alone change it because it won't go with their theme but hopefully they still get somekind of help out of our info. Of course sometimes you get the people who dont want to listen to anything you have to say no matter how much good it will do them and they will continue to whine in broadcast. I encourage anyone that has questions about anything PvPwise to not be afraid to ask someone that PvP's regularly the question, more than likely you will get an answer, do with it what you will.

sup killo, been a long time

Anyone that is in closed beta testing can not give you any details about any changes that may have been done to any powers due to the non-disclosure agreement that each person accepts to abide by.

So you will just have to stop asking and have to wait on I14's open beta testing to see how any powers have been changed.

Quills-worthless

and a stalker by himself is pretty much not going to be able to 2 shot anyone even if he does get an AS off against you, so you really don't need to worry about having quills running to attempt to get unhide them.

The biggest thing this MMO had going for it prior to the i13 travel suppression was the freedom of movement of pre-i13 PvP. No other MMO had movement like it and really even with the slower i13 PvP travel and suppression even with IR from a kin this games PvP is the best for movement. If you want someone to fiteklub style you say as much and find someone that wants to stand there toe-to-toe and fight you without any type of travel powers (but I doubt you will get many takers).

Another travel power nerf/ further travel suppression is definately not what the game needs.

they have been disabled for a long time. This didn't just happen

targeting binds are disabled in PvP zones and in the arena so get quick with the tab key

lol @ Amaan_Khan for just being.

coined the term, basically came up with the entire idea and like many have stated it was a good idea but a very bad implementation of it when mixed with DR.

I really don't get the no rewards so it is an impediment to PvPing. If you like to PvP then the reward is PvPing. Those of us that like to PvP do it because we like to do it not because it gets us anything. The reason that there are low numbers in the zones/arenas is because a ton of people quit with the release of i13 and no matter what you do to the game, the people that don't like to PvP will not magically start liking PvP. They will always have some reason(excuse) as to why they don't/won't do it.

They complained that purpled FOTM toons ruled the roost, so I13 was made to even out the playing field... are the people who complained about it now in the zones or arena PvPing, nope.

They complained that they didnt want to "ruin" their PvE build to make a PvP build. Tada dual builds, now you can have a PVP and a PvE build but are they taking advantage and PvPing, again nope, and what some of these people are doing instead is making a PvE team build and PvE solo build......

So now the new excuse is there are no rewards for PvPing so when and if they put in some real rewards for PvPing there will be a new excuse as to why people don't PvP.

you never fought a good mm is what I am going to guess.

ah yeah mah bad i totally left out son of rainbow brite

Most feared person in I12 PvP Triumph zones were a MM and a Defender, Airborne Elite (Merc/Trap) and Ablate (Rad/Sonic) respectively. Atleast, one of the most.

[/ QUOTE ]

Ablate (Rad/Sonic)- would agree that he was one of the most feared.

Airborne Elite (Merc/Trap)-good but definately not the most feared. I would go with Helms fort or dom or Avid on his dom(on the rare occasions that he was actually on live and on it) or Barbie's or Ninja's stalker or Butch's annoying cold.
