This way I can cure DoTs that other players land, land my own and hit hard wth a good stun baton . Thanks in advance.
Good luck there. You're better off with TK than fencer anyday as stun damage with AP0 is sooo easily beaten by stun armor and psg's. DoT's will do more damage.

You've obviously never PvP'd against the noobs on Infinity........... by noobs I mean 90% of the PvPing community

Someone mentioned rifleman/CM/etc as a decent PVP template which I cannot agree. I was a Rifleman/Doc/CM and without melee dam mitigation, I was getting spanked by jedi as well as TKM/Fencers who were close to impossible to hit even with my Dot'ed Dxr's, and many (On my server at least) carry some top notch acklay stun batons, which can rip through a shield Generator in a matter of seconds, leaving only my 39% stun composite. Also, without Dizzy, KD, posture down defenses,you willspend a ton of time on your back even with food. IMO, a MR, without at least some melee defenses is a waste of time in pvp.

Get a PSG with the condition maxed out and very low resists. I usually have 2 or 3 with 1800 condition but only 9% stun resist. The PSG alone causes a 50% reduction in damage from being AP1 and because of the low resist % its absorbing less damage and lasting much longer even when they usetheir scatterhit which hitsall three HAM's at once and grinds up most other PSGs. I had a 2200 condition 15% Imp psg prototype once that seemed to last forever.
p.s.- take Citris Snowcake, the chances to hit the defense stackers (which will be a thing of the past soon thankfully) go up substantially.
p.p.s- Yeah I'm on Sunrunner not Infinity. Most of the PvP'ers all haveawesome stun armor and PSG's. We just have to deal with certain loudmouthed Jedi. ![]()

That is why I like PvP groups ![]()
Melee go in and do their job, and we ranged folks stay as far back as possible.
