Krytical used to post on the forums regularly. Since he hasn't, I assume he quit. I forget what his forum name was.
As far as the OP:
dom, paindom/emp, stalker
dom, paindom/emp, blaster
One of those would probably be best. The one with the stalker can probably be more effective if all the players are top-notch, but since there are roughly 3.24 total top-notch stalkers left in the game, the blaster combo is probably more reliable. -
I'd definitely put sonic above rad and elec.
Elec is really only good in duels, and really only on therms. Sure, 90+% of corrs are therms now, but for anything else, there's really no reason to be elec.
As far as rad, -res is a lot more important in today's PvP than -def. Also, rad needs to be heavily procced to do anything, and that's really what takes it from lolz to good. I've seen some rad corrs that don't have procs (new toons I guess), and their damage was flat out laughable.
Meanwhile, sonic can get kills on pretty much anything by stacking -res, and it can do it with simple SO's.
And as solo mentioned, it gets even more valuable on a team. When I played my sonic/therm, I felt I was contributing a lot to a team by simply spamming attacks. It made targets die in like half the normal time. -
Holy ****, that was a lot of words since my last post. I'm not gonna bother reading any of it, sorry guys.
I will just say this.
It's called ******* zone PvP. Not a "warzone". Seriously wtf. -
Yeah good luck with that. I'll wager it's one of those things they're simply too stupid to figure out, so it'll be part of the game forever, just like stalker placate.
At this point, it's clearly not a time issue. It's been a known bug for what...4 years? They simply are not good enough programmers to figure out how to fix a bug.
And considering this "new" bug (new meaning less than 1 year old, lol) also involves placate, I wouldn't have high hopes. -
Group invis suppresses completely any time you attack or get attacked, and it doesn't come back until you actually reapply it. Which makes it literally 100% useless in PvP, since it has such a long recharge.

Quote:hey don't steal my analogy!
Monkeys with a learning disorder could probably get a draw in most "melee" matches simply by randomly mashing keys and moving around.
Also, isn't it funny how the recent CoH forum theme has been ALL the knowledgeable old school PvP'ers saying one thing, while Sentry4 says they're all wrong and states the exact opposite? It's like a guaranteed thing. You know that if anyone mentioned in that "best player you know" thread says something, Sentry4 will claim it's false and say that the exact opposite is true. Kinda funny. -
Hey,
SI is useless. You get the same exact thing from stealth + stealth IO. So I'd just do that and take phase. Well, when attacking, SI does only suppress for 6 seconds, compared to stealth's 10....but that is hardly noticeable.
There's absolutely no doubt that mind is way better for zone. Ill can do well in duels because PA and phantasm are close enough to actually do something. But in a zone, you basically can't kill anything on an Ill. Spectral wounds is a complete joke of an attack, doing less damage than blind, which doesn't do much itself.
Why you making a new toon anyway? Bored of your psy/em cuz it's too easy? hehe -
-
Psy/em is pretty much the easiest thing in the game right now. If you have one of those, and maybe an elec/therm too, you can beat pretty much everything in the game.

Quote:Yeah, by that time, the WP is already dead.
I always see Fire tanks running away or kiting like crazy waiting for HF, never see a WP tank do that.
Also, lol at you saying aid self is as good as HF when literally like 2 hours ago you made a thread complaining how you couldn't use aid self in a melee duel vs someone because you kept getting interrupted. And that's a melee duel, the biggest joke in the game. Against ranged damage, WP will die in seconds. -
Actually it's more like haymaker, KoB, stone prison, fossilize, hurl, repeat.
-
Why a PB? You'd only have 1 attack...2 at most. And weak ones at that....with zero survivability powers.
-
SR is horrible without a big investment too. When elude isn't up, my SR gets hit with literally every single attack. Elude is essentially the entire set, and without a huge investment, it's not going to be up enough.
-
Everything sucks compared to regen, but fire is the 2nd best.
-
If you did that, but stopped using your current strategy of making a separate post for every single thought you have, I'm willing to bet your post count would actually go down.
-
Yeah, phase > tough. I don't know any good regin that takes tough.
-
Yay for stealth changes. Gotta love them. Been happening constantly the whole time the game's been out, and been denied the whole time by the devs.
-
FYI...
MoG only lasts 15 seconds.
And self rezzes are completely useless in PvP. -

Back in the day the best at level 4 were either blasters or defenders. But in the end, it really comes down to completely random luck. Whoever gets lucky and happens to land more of his 1 attack spam will win.
-
haha. I actually ran into a couple stalkers in the last week or so that I swore had shark on auto. It's literally all they did. Even when I sat still, one of them jumped right next to me, and sharked me. Oh, they did also talk a lot of trash. I guess trash talk and shark spam go hand in hand.

This has been done a few times in the past, but at level 4. That makes it at least playable. Level 2 is just too low to do anything.
