For the record i was bh carb3 master carb for 6 months and just picked up doc/master carb(which owns) these are probablythe best 2 builds for carbines with dabbling melee and master carbine being the next best.I have only decent equipment, no krayt carbs,average suits of armor andno skill attachments. I do however try to keep the best food/spice/buffs around with me at all times.
K you guys know the builds, the carbines types, andthe specials to use. But ive seen mad noob advice for the rest of the game. I use just about every single carbine there is to use in pvp, the ee3, the laser, the elite, the dh17s, nyms, the dxr6, and yes the cdef (not as much anymore). These are all on the bottom half of my toolbar. Now I use everysingle one for the range mods.
THe cdefi used to pull out to get the blind, stun and dizzystate on stackers it was also a poison cdef only a 41 a tic poison but that was just for scare. Although stacking is over with thatsa great example of tactics iapply to pvp.
The nyms is the best accuracy mod atpoint blankother then the cdef.
The dh17shave the lowest costbest speed and dmg without armor piercing.So pull these while unbuffed against unarmored.
The ee3 is for when im buffed and fighting unarmored people and those wookies.
The Laser is for meleers
The elite is for the guys with ranged mitigation
and the dxr6 is for another good dmging gun
Another reason i use all these guns is that i will never run out of powered up guns in a middle of a fight cause as soon as that powerups gone your 32% less effective.
Now everyone says bh carb is the way to go. I have to say this really isnt necessary. ITs a lot of skill points and if you max out your defenses or go doc I think is way more effective. Dont get me wrong bh carb does own i was one for 6 months strait its just not worth it.
Nowin pvp youll face meleers andrifles the most in pvp. Heres what i do vs the 2.
Meleers i just spam fullauto single and go for a kd once in a whilewhile kiting if they are dizzy kd as long as no one else is around i go proneright away and spam a higher dmging shot so chose whatever is most effective with your guns speed.I havethe terrainnegotiation line from scoutwith 4440 doc right now. Now if you dont haveterrain negotiations its possible to go head to head withthem without kiting but itsnot worth the risk so get the terrain negotiations in there. If a meleer does gets me dizzy kded im a doc so i can get up from that by spamming stand and cure dizzy as fast as possible, if this happens as a bh/carb you are pretty **edit**ed but with bh/carb you get the dmg output and extra terrain negotiations so you can easily prevent this from happening.
Against rifles its pretty simple its pretty much narrows down to equipment after using the right tactics. Get as close as possible to the rifleman and spam fullauto single2. WIth master carb defenses they will hit about 1 in 6 shots at pb while blind. If you get a good dizzy kd in there that should give you a good enough advantage to beat them.
Now the next thing and the funnest thing to do in pvp is soloing the group. I have taken on 13 players at once with carbines thats my best yet(we were all buffed and armored). Now vs the group its fairly simple spam fullauto area2 while kiting and throw in the charge shot2 once in a while and hitting the groups best players witha posture change to get them out of range.Try and targetone of the groups meleersthat is closest to you for the area attacks because they will be in the besttargeting point of the group. Stay on hills always to be able to outrun most playersbecause you should have terrain negotiations and burst run but stay in rangeifameleer is a little to closefor comfort or burst run if you realize its actually a very skilled group.
Now this is pretty much the pvp style i play may be a little biased to my play style and not leet equipment. I hope this is a good reed for you guys.
