Um, what?

Terp PvPed extensively durring i4 and i4 beta, he was an officer in the original Hell Raisers (only SG to beat Tribute). He played alot through the pre-IO issues too - I'm pretty sure he was on quite a few reputable teams - many of which were on top of the ladder, or won the TPvPL. To name a few: Pennance, VORI, Team Haterade, Team Tanzie, the original 10mop, ext.

I think the biggest solution to the commonality of powers like Phase and Hibernate especially is to get the system back to a state where you live or die by having (or not having) an escape power. Hell, even if you kept heal decay in zone PvP, changing travel suppression back to the PvE rules or even removing it completely would negate much of the need for phase/hibernate because you'd be more able to use the geometry to your advantage, not to mention it would make Kins useful again.

In all seriousness, if they'd just remove travel suppression, heal decay, base resists, fix damage on AoEs, and fix movement slows, we'd have a halfway decent system where every powerset could have at least some use. From there it'd just be a matter of balancing powers one by one, and maybe finding a different solution to the mez system (not a fan of the old mez system, not a fan of the new one either - I still think something different could be done but I can't really think of anything good). I don't think the old PvP system was perfect, but I sure think it's better than the new one. I sometimes wonder what the old system would've been like if they added the "no toggle dropping" rules, added the global resists/defense in epic/patron shields, added psi resists/defese to defensive sets which lack it in PvE, added a small amount of debuff resistance in melee mez protection powers, and implemented DPA balancing the right way (I mean in a way that makes sense, where powers like Bitter Ice Blast do more damage than Ice Blast, or pool powers aren't some of the best attacks). Regarding mez, maybe give squishies a limited amount of protection against all mezzes and make mezzes last less time. As a tradeoff, the mez powers would deal more damage (kind of like the current system, but not so extreme). Under that kind of system, being mezzed would still be a concern if you weren't teamed with an Emp or other such character but wouldn't be a death sentence like it was in pre-I13 PvP because your toggles wouldn't drop.

You would honestly expect someone with his resume to sound less like a fite clubber than he does. Yet just about every time he post thats exactly how he comes off any more.
