I'm looking for some advice for CM and PvP'ing regarding what weapons to use... Right now I'm currently a TKA/CM... I love this setup for PvM, but as you can guess this isn't strong at all regarding anything doing with PvP... I can dish out massive damage and am very strong in pvp, there are just 2 problems... I have to get in range in the first place... And I have to pray that my target doesn't decide to kite me and run with me never being able to get into range to ever land an attack...

With this said, what weapon route do most of you go when dealing with PvP? I want a strong class that can compliment my cm skills and allow me to still dish out some damage on the PvP lines... I figure if I do decide to drop TKA for a weapon, even though I do love my TKA right now... It will at least help compliment me with the added sc's which my current template would be really stressing for... So please... Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated...

Pistol. Pistol is very quick so if you heal between firing you heal faster then say a rifle. Pistol also gets you nice attacks like bleed, so if you are having trouble killing someone, bleed em and take cover while it slow kills em, then hit em behind walls with CM poisons. I had rifle and dropped it for pistol, not sure about carbine as I havent tried it, but I can tell you 99% of the times I die in PvsP, its a pistol user.

I use carbine because of the action shot stun that keeps the paused when moving. I got my carbine sliced to 3 seconds which is just as fast as your healing rate so it works niceley for me. But, I concur with the pistol reccomendtion I may swich to pistol myself.

Pistola...

no substitute.

Fencing

Personally im mixing between pistoleer and fencer, not to master either, but for the defensive skills from both trees

weapon..yeah its called a dot...use it from inside a build and watch them cry from a 410 point mind dot...

no LOS rocks

lol elenora just have to get it to hit first

hey like i said 65 potency C poison...only 3 out of 48 resisted....

no *hit? too bad i'm still stuck at 2nd tier craft since I hate grinding with a passion....

im telling u post patch and pvp damage reduction...we are gonna get called for nerfs...

410 mind damage on a C mind poison ticks about every 7-8 secs, non LOS application...AOE version?

Mind damge is gonna be king in pvp and we are gonna be huge abusers of it..i already am, even with reduction in we get a buff on the damage from combat medic effectiveness...

look for this board to be flooded with nerf mind dot soon...

lord knows i got a ton of complaints about ti the other day when i was in a PvP battlefield...4 imps held off 10 rebs because the 3 other imp all had the exit to the base covered and i ran agaisnt the wall and tossed in mind dots....3 mins later all 10 rebs incapped with no mind...and that was with single target dot application...Did that with 5 people against 20 rebs in moenia who were camping the star port...10+ of them all mind doted and doing the incap/wakeu dot ticks/incap thing...

as much as we scream for mind healing....man we really need to be ready to sacrifice mind dots if we are talking taking out mind damage...

Yeah, I'm really afraid the nerf-train will be making a stop here soon.

The DOTs are fun while they last though.

400PointNoLineOfSightMind-dot...mmmmmmmm....

Anyone on TC knows if poison damage is scaled down as weapon one is ?

Considering that they last over 10 minutes I am not at all worried, throw one in, run and hide, come back later to DB and enjoy the constant /tell spam.
