Welcome back, Xanatos!
It's strange to think that CoH now has a post 50 game, isn't it? Only took 7 years. Ah well. Enjoy the incarnate abilities!
Glad to see a few familiar faces

I used to. It's the only way to get things fixed. LOL @ People raging on forums devs don't read.

The dev team balanced DP damage in PVP. They might do the same with KM.

srry im not much of a "Forum Posting type" *obviously if u seeze me post log* but w/e the math is i am an extreamly active PvP'er wheter it be zone or arena, and 1st thing i gotta say is WHOA!!!!!!.....stop the QQing ppl this is a video game designed for MILLIONS OF PPL (atleast tentionally its not designed for just YOU, NUCKLEHEAD (meaning u if i think i do) yall need to learn to adapt and prevail, this game gets better every patch (EXCLUDING the release of AE, wich i personally think it DESTROYED this games population) PvP atm is very well balancend its just most the time your getting ganked by 5 or more ppl cuz most crowd and favor sides, yall somehow forgot not any At is supposed to beat any At 1 vs 1 if that was the cae then YES PvP would be UNBALANCED and would be TOO easy, all u would need is 1 toon if anything can beat anything DUH.......and why would we EVER wanna go back to i12 PvP rules? r u SERIOUS? u wanna go to PvP or arena just to sit through 2 minutes of being held unless yur a scrap/tank/brute/stalk? ok then lets make it back to the 4 major PvP toons minus Doms wich lets face it were good back then BUT.......ur gonna get *****/ganked/gagged and bagged in zone soon as ppl knows yur there so what fun is that, im not the type to look for easy kills and i dont wanna kill the same person repeaditly thats RETARDED i wanna kill 1 and move on now that i13 is out we dont have to worry about toggle dropping, or being held by any well slotted hold toon until u die, and YES the system they has now DOES work VERY WELL actually, if u really think about it. Its not hard to tell, its still very challenging for Veterans due to excessive AT & build compition and keeping up with FotM as well as easy to learn and expeirience as a NewB. the DR helps for ppl who DONT know how to slot and use crap like SO's and reg IO's w/e. Yall just need to Man-Up and adjust, its a video game YOUR SUPPOSED TO DIE....
as for the new i19 fitness pool inherent.....its a feature that should have started standard that way.......fitness Always should have been an inherent its about TIME.....ofc it will make PvP more diff but ISN THAT WHAT WE WANT? DONT WE BEG FOR A CHALLENGE? PvP aint easy......its just easy to Gank!!!!!
Also to touch down on ppl who use "Phase Shift" lmao u guys r NooBs NOBODY needs Phase.......again ITS A VIDEO GAME YOUR SUPPOSED TO DIE........besides all u really need is invis and some decent run speed if u dont has that then u should expect to die more than not, phase doesnt stop u from being killed.....its just a waste of power wich u coulda used for somthing that WOULD HELP u kill instead of being killed or needing to pop phase in the 1st place XD
oh yea 1 nire thing before i go.......NOTHING IS O.P......NOTHING!!!!!!
if we were all in PvP with 0 enhancments what AT would just be GOD?......NONE because with out enhancments yur toon aint squat......with that said.....different strokes for different folks, ppl build/slot differently SO some r BETTER than others i.e. i can hit u with "Brawl" for 500dmg but u can only hit me for 100dmg why? cuz i slot better XD nothing is OP so stop QQ'ing and maiking the devs tyena fix **** that aint broke YOUR BROKE or u cant MAN-UP and ADJUST -
Dual Pistols. Something a little less "nerd-wet-dream-chic" would be great.

Lol these threads are still going.

I'll put it on the schedule.

Quote:You have to mix the questions together to trick the devs into answering PVP questions. (I.e. "I really like how the new Dual Pistol powerset works in PVP, everyone I've met enjoyed playing with and against it. Are there any exciting plans for PVP now that GR is completed and I20 is in beta?")Originally Posted by Fury161
I asked several PvP related questions at yesterdays live Dev chat, none got answered. I asked one other question relating to power customization, it got answered... Go figure.
Either that or get a gang of people together to flood the Q&A with PVP related questions. We did that at the formspring Q&A thing and we got some PVP bugfixes as a result. The trick is to go through official links. (The dev team largely ignore the forum. So even the best put together thread/PM is pretty much ignored.) -

the ill/rad will be an effective duelist and 2v2 partner, and good disruption...but the psi/em is basically the best thing u can use to effectively *learn* pvp....avoid starting out on the bs/regen it will cause some bad habits

Here's how it is:
PVE is balanced to the lowest common denominator in terms of player skill. (Read: last patches changes to the "difficulty" of praetorian enemies.) The devs have to do this, many players have slow reactions and enjoy the SLOW AS AS MF pace of a MMORPG over say a FPS or whatever. "Casual gamers" are what this game is balanced around.
The devs tried to balance PVP in line with this mindset with the changes in I13. However, all I13 did was widen the rich-poor gap and pretty much remove all player skill. The result of this is that skillwise PVP is balanced to lowest common denominator, but requires such a large investment (builds/accolades/IOs) that the slow players won't benefit from it. (For not only are they slow to play, but they are mentally unable to produce the inf required to afford a PVP build.)
And hence; PVP died a big death. For the very people the development team were trying to target; they also alienated. Not only that, but the high-end PVPers were also badly affected by the changes.
In short: The PVP I13 changes benefitted no-one. And now virtually no-one plays PVP.
Obvious result is obvious.
PVP is never going to get fixed. It took the devs AGES to make 1-20 content in GR. Imagine how much longer it'll take to make 20-50 content, plus the pretend "end game" that Positron is working on. Plus all the booster packs that NCSoft is pushing out to make short term much needed $$$. (Emotes? LOL)
PVP is never going to be fixed again. The best we can hope for is new powersets (KM/DS/DP/etc) being tweaked right after being released and minor bug fixes to certain powers (and that will only work through contacting the development team/CR/support team, filing bug reports both in game and on the forum.) To me this seems like too much work in something that I pay to play monthly.
Add in the fact that PVPIOs can now be bought with PVE resources, and the Dev team are pretty much admitting that PVP is not on the agenda. Not now. Not ever.
So what to do? The answer here is an obvious one.
Real talk. -

You should use a different thread if you seriously want to ask that.

There is virtually no PVP on Virtue. (*rimshot*)
