What you think about PvP so far? - raizoo - 2011-07-23
No delay hack + Band of Thieves = TEAM PvPing WITH FRIENDS TILL THIS IS EVER FIXED. :|
And my "strategy" as an MM seems to be good, considering I die every ~20 seconds yet usually end up in the top 3. >__>;

Fran if its an aran named no he has no delay hack on -.- ran into him 5 times just kept leaving.

1.People that are able to spam BoT are very dangerous. You have 0 chance of surviving
2. Priest/Bishops...I dunno what to say about them. Just seems fishy when they're number one on the score board. Very unfair that they can turn you into snails and heal : (
3. I seem to slide A LOT across platforms when theres no character that can lure...therefore no escape on getting killed.
4. In the safe zone when i land I get pushed off by some invisible force.

Yes, that is the Aran I was thinking of. He has been one of the few players to keep up with me, but I can usually still finish 500-1k points ahead. If he really is no delaying and still finishing 2nd...

Although, I have seen a few other pretty good Arans; I can't play 180+ though because no one in Kradia wants to (even 120+ is hard to find at late hours...).

The trouble with him is i buffed my paladin much more then my shadower but i play PvP with my shadower so i couldnt take him on 1v1 and if i was in a battle with any amount of people he would always come and finish everyone off with his no delay fun =\.

In Kradia, some Evan (no) probably no-delays. He hit me with Magic Flare for almost all my health in about 2-3 seconds, hitting 2-3 times a second. I made sure to stay away from him and only hit him in passing while chasing other people. Or to crash him so the people who could do something to him could get him killed quicker. Not sure what the no-delay idea is with ComboBro (he's in my alliance, so I hold a bit of skepticism towards hacking reports for a bit), but if an Aran wants, and doesn't lag, they can rapidly do Rolling Spin by just hitting the combo quickly.

Greetings guys. Friendly neighbourhood reminder that you are not to name people as hackers or alleged hackers.

Well, after having played through the 50, 100, 300, 500 and 1k points event with all of my chars I'll say what I think. Keep in mind that this is with horrible lag and delays. Horrible as in: people will always loot powerups before I do if they try to pick it up at all.
- Bishop: had a lot of fun with this one. Lots of different skills to use instead of just spamming one or two that work is a great change of pace. There's actually some strategy here and it's really cool once you get the hang of it. Very easy to rack up points.
- Outlaw: spam Ice+Flame. That's about it. It's impossible to use recoil shot as a traveling method due to the horrendous lag/delay. Easy to rack up points.
- Bucc: had fun using so much transform, demo and etc, but the delays are terribad. Spam DS ftw. Racking up points depends on whether you hit lots of people with DS or not.
- Shad: best class I've played. Really fun spamming BS+Assaulter. BoT as well. Smoke seems to be useless and Assassinate is pretty much unreliable. Very, very easy to rack up points.
- Aran: Rolling Spin. All day long. Set a macro on a key on your controller, rapid fire it and be happy. Okay to rack up points.
- Hermit: all I've done was Lucky 7 and Avenger. I don't have Shadow Web but that skill seems to be very evil on PvP. Okay to rack up points.
- Evan: very cool to play as. Lots of skill to use and you can just teleport away whenever you're in trouble (not that running away in PvP is beneficial though). Spam that Illusion. Easy to rack up points.
- DB: horrible delays. 2nd to worst to get those 1k points with. Very hard to rack up points.
- Battlemage: pretty cool to play as. Dark Chains is awesome and you have quite a few skills to use as well. Easy to rack up points.
- Mech: spam Siege and die. That's what I did LOL. Not as fun as I'd thought it would be. Easy to rack up points.
- DrK: worst for me. I just can't do well with short ranged attacks and lag, since when I'm attacking someone in front of me, they're actually somewhere else already so I'll always miss. Had to "spam" Roar and SD in the middle of a crowd in order to get 1k during the 1.5x event.
Once again, keep in mind this is with the terrible lag I have to play with.

I take back what I said earlier.
I finally got back home, where I don't lag, and the change was huge.
Huge being I won or placed on all of the team matches I played, and got the exp I needed to level in about an hour. That was 30% at level 147.
I love PvP.

I've made the conclusion that PvP will never be fun until they fix the lag there. No Pvp until then.

Buccs are an interesting PvP experience. Because of the delays there are no real useful 1v1 skills. What seems the most effective to me is to spam dragon strike on a cluster of people fighting each other. However if someone starts attacking you, you gotta run. I cannot find a way to make my bucc win in a 1v1 situation.

I'm sorry JP but thats my opinion since an aran from my alliance was in the same game and when they were close to each other the just attacked so much faster and no he didnt forget booster. And forgive me if im just being stupid. Off topic apparently there is a flying hack now ._.?

Crashed several times trying to get in once, finally got to play one game & hated it. I didn't know what was going on, this

Sorien Wrote:That "NO-HIT" thing is from an invincibility buff that can be obtained through those mystery potions lying on the ground, they have random effects that are pulled from all of the other potions that drop. Those same potions can also transform you into a random monster so you can't attack, so it's a bit of a gamble.
Actaully BaMs, such as myself, like to take advantage of Blue Aura Body Boost (Invincibility for ten seconds.)
Also, BaM Drain is banned so don't think that we're draining too. :x

Here's my thoughts after a few days of PVP.
My Hero kicks large amounts of a$$ in the 120+ arena. I get the most points 99% of the time with him, even if i'm on a losing team battle game.
But, here's a list of Classes he has trouble with:
Mages - If i can't crash them (and i can only use it once every 60 seconds), then it's a tough fight with them teleporting around all the time. Annoying if they lock you.
Bishops - They need a nerf. If you don't think so, you have not met a good one. They can dispel what seems like every 10 seconds (My crash is 60, wtp). They can BLOCK MY CRASH with holy shield or whatever that skill is. Now that's just wrong. And everything else people have mentioned (doom, SR and tele stun, genesis, summon, HEALING). If you can't turn off a Bishops magicguard, you wont kill them, simple as that. Smart ones will just tele away when getting low on HP, or dispel you and make you run away. I hate dispel more than anything else, because i have 7 buffs to redo and it takes quite awhile. Honestly, neither dispel nor magic crash should be allowed in pvp. I dont even use crash unless people are using that crap on me first. Feels like bad manners really.
Paladins - Probably the most tankable character. I have to stun them as much as possible to win a 1v1 fight. Guard blocks sooooo much.
BaMs - The only annoying thing about these guys is the invincible tornado BS. I just run away, no point in staying.
Heros - Obviously fighting myself is tough. They do the same crap i do. Especially if they crash me, then i have to crash them back and run away. Bothersome.
Ranged classes are relatively easy to deal with. Magnet them close, and jump around them slashing. Too many enemies around? Rush a couple off the platform so you can deal with 1 specifically.
I took my Ranger into pvp to get some points and challenger equips. I found him to be pretty decent. Even with garbage equipment, i could get decent points. Arrow Bomb and Fire Arrow are devastating to groups. Arrow Rain sucks, a lot. Its only use is pestering people way above or below you as its vertical range is big.
Took my 120 Dawn Warrior into PVP as well. It automatically wants me in the 120+ arena, and i found after a couple matches that it cannot hold its own against real 4th jobbers. I was mid-pack in points every time. So, i went into the 70+ arena and tried it out. Turns out (duh, because it's a cygnus), that i can still use all my skills in there. As such, i was dominating like never before. Always first in points, and by a wide margin. It looks like Cygnus are the way to go for 70+ arenas.
Have not had a chance to fully test my Mech or Corsair out, but I imagine it will be just like the ones i fight against. They'll do ok, but won't be stellar.
I think the next class i'll run through PVP is my 115 wind archer. Use that as a way to level him to 120. I've seen WA in there, and they're not half bad, especially when transformed.

Besides FJ & teleport jobs crying like babies when I walk the corner, I have a blast.
Makes me so mad when I get magic crashed and dispelled. One game I got magic crashed every time I got to the top platform by a hero. I only got mid most. __o
