  1. I was about to say, I've been pvping and watching tv at the same time since I startred pvping about 2 years ago. Doesnt really prove anything. And getting rep is easier then ever now with the 5 minute rule.

    Sure pvp is a bit easier (and less fun), but the people that suck still suck and people with "skill" still tear them apart.

    Earth Dom

    Hmm, do you find earthquake and quicksand useful? I was thinking of skipping both. Blue side its great for stalkers, but I dont see any real need for either red side.
  3. I just read posi's post about the new super sidekick and it seems the power leveling we know today will be a thing of the past when i16 hits. Better get those levels in now if you want to pl a toon.

  4. I feel your pain. Due to all the PvP changes at least 75% of my PvP toons got shelved. Luckily some still do ok in PvP. Funny thing about it is that this was supposed to level out the playing field and make all sets close to equal. Looks like a complete fail in my books.
  5. I'm guessing the OP is in closed beta and knows something we dont?

    Earth Dom

    I'm currently working on a earth/nrg dom for pvp and was wondering what powers should I take for earth/?

    I know what powers to take on a earth troller, but I'm not sure if those powers are worth taking for a dom in PvP.
  7. I guess you can say RV is more constant then it was before i13 and slightly more populated. In i12 RV was packed, but it wasnt around the clock like it is now.
  8. ...you feel like you've done something wrong when you complete the Battle Maiden map for the PJ accolade.

    Oh, my bad... arctic.
  10. Are you all kidding? Arctic beat super deveron pre-i13 on his ice/ice dom and posted a vid of it. We all know how OP melee was in pvp 1.0. Just the fact that a lol ice/ice dom could beat the fite klub king pre-13 shows that arctic is one of, if not THE best pvpers in CoX.

    /sarcasm
  11. And to put it in better perspective, Sirens Call on Freedom was just as populated as RV is now. Both zones were buzzing pre i12. Now SC is a shell of its former self and RV is the only real busy pvp zone. Sure SC has times when it gets some good numbers going, but nothing like it was before i13 hit.

    Resorting link back to prior version. too many issues.
    I'm beginning to understand why Mids felt he didn't have enough time to develop this anymore.

    I'm going to goto bed... I've been up since 3 this morning working on this just to find out it was all pointless. I'll be back on in day or two...

    Mids for i15!

    Its weird, some of my builds work, and some don't. I didn't even notice there was no accolade bar...

    Looks like some more work needs to be done. Glad I still have the previous edition saved. Guess I'll have to reinstall that until these issues get fixed.

    Mids for i15!

    Most likely a bug... at least I hope.
  16. Well, I uninstalled and reinstalled the program and it works fine... except for the fact that it wont open most of my saved builds.

    Hmm, cant seem to open most of my saved builds...
  18. Uninstall and do a fresh install.

    Update:
    Ran into a few snags, seems Mids' changed the way the info get's databased due to Vista's UAC all updates, including database updates, will be required a full download & install (from this point forward)... and because of this the file that my data drone prepared with all the new correct enhancements is useless... however I type at about 100wpm so transferring the data over now that it's there was beyond faster than I originally thought. (still took a few hours as you can see... but still that's fast! lol).

    New mids is finally up! Time to update those builds.

  20. I had about 20 points of kb protection and I was still getting tossed around by doms on my FA. Someone that face plants from attacks like levitate is a good target for spikes. I'm at 35 points now and I haven't been kb in RV since I added the extra protection. It made a huge difference.

    I've had 3 drops since they "fixed" it. All 3 fury of the glad.

    1 proc
    1 quad
    1 dmg/recharge

    Made a sweet 500mil selling them.

    according to the drop rules, that makes you a fiteclubbing rp'er.

    WAI.

    Does fite klub ganking count as fite klubing?

    If so ((guilty as charged))

    I dont think they are talking about drones and more so turrets and NPC's. When you look at it that way vills do have it better. And both spots have areas that you can attack right outside the front door. In fact, I dont think vills have tp foe friendly guard stands like the heroes do. The hero base is much easier to camp then the villain base. Either way, I'm fine with them both as is. I wouldn't mind getting rid of those guard towers though.

    um lol? a devs blaster can stand in about 4 places I know of where they can tp right out of the door, or jump right to the other side of the door and throw down caltrops...nevermind the crates on the oil rigs that devs can tp you in...

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Whats your point? I can name a dozen places vills can stand next to the hero base and camp, and don't get me started on the flying doms. Both bases have places people can camp, but vills are better off since they have turrets and huge masses of npc's.

    And the crate you speak of, can you actually tp someone out of the vill hosp into it like you can the towers? I think not.
  23. For starters, you only have 4 points of kb protection. Anything with decent kb will put you on your back and keep you there. Might want to pick up acro and get some more kb ios if you want to stay on your feet for more then a minute at a time.

    Other then that very important issue the build looks good.

    PvP Set Bonuses

    You know, now that I think of it they might have been referring to one of the PvE HP bonuses and not the PvP. Squid is probably right since I never actually checked myself and I cant seem to find that post I was referring to.
