End of the day, its survival of the fittest. As in everything in life, if you do not adapt and stay stagnant - then you will be overtaken. Possibly at some time CM will be nerfed. Maybe, maybe not. Frankly I dont give atoss if it does - cuz when it does I will just change my template again to be the best.


Those who do not take the time to grind up a new profession, those who hide behind the argument that they dont want to be sheep, well then - take a step back and shut it. Cuz you KNOW that a CM played correctly is a powerful adversary - it is your choice that you did notwant to go down that road. So dontmoan at others who do and are more succesful that yourself. Instead try and better your existing template by getting the best weapons and armor, the best sea's and food/spice. No one respects whiners - from where I come from we grit our teeth and get on with it and give it our best shot. End of the day all you are what you put in to your life and in retrospect - everything that you do in it. This includes gaming.

i dont know about any of you but i can still be decent in combat without buffs (pixie?)






Pixie ups your health and action alot but not much at all on your substats which is where your regen and action usage is determined. Without regen buffs aren't worth it. You can get BE enhanced chef foods but you dont have enough room in your stomach to equal to what doctor buffs can give you. Besides if you're PvP its better used for anti-kd, dodge, and damage reduction foods while your drink is filled on brandy or left empty for enhanced blue milk.


The only spice worth having in PvP is muon which can be used as a mind heal and stacks with brandy.


If you did pvp successfully you'd know this by now. Entertainer buffs also mean the difference between life and cloning if you dont have "powerboost" (which needs to be given to all in some way or removed). When you grow up maybe someday the pvp big boys might let you come and play.

make that 90% with certain poisons ticking 1000 thats still 100 per tick and even on "weaker" poisons such as 500 thats still 50 per tick, and seeing as most players have little or no defense at all its a great balance tipper, not an instant battle winner.

I'd prefer to create the option for working defenses instead. That makes more sense.

They have and its going to be released with the new smuggler revamp. It also lends us to believe that poisons will not be nerfed now that a defense for it is provided. Get the feeling to that mind will no longer be an incappable pool but thats just a theory. If I'm right though it'll be fun to watch a fight without spamming specials.

a valid mature arguements deserves a response, so here it is:


If you cant pvp without buffs and be effective then you are a low asset to your team...i myself will still be effective with a black health bar once i pop the pixie. Its all about tactics...buffs only make you strong for the initial charge...after that you have to be able to fight without them. I myself have my mind pools migrated to max and pop pixie with brandi until im full of drinks then i use muon with prayers that my healing wont delay to severely. Im not sure about you but i am relentless in pvp and i am also very hard to take down without even stacking...its all in the strategy you use Buffs are not the catalist to being good at pvp.
