Ok, scenario: Your a master pikeman/doc vs any non jedi. What would you guys aim for? Would you try and stack health fires,diseases, and poisons? Or mind? I have always done mind and was wondering about everyone else.

I go all mind on non-jedi. For jedi I go with the highest DPS attack i can do.

I would try to stack as many as you can. An example you are fighting a kiting rifleman/doc, you stick a mind fire, poison, disease etc. he/she will be trying to heal this away, cutting down DPS.

depends on the situation. I usually go health because those are my best dots and I can do dps dmg also. but if they are a healer template I go mind and rifle kite.(headshots)
vs jedi is whatever best dps is. hit3 for ex. with my biggest pike
leg hit is just so bad its practically worthless in pvp

I always go for mind also. It usually the smallest pool and I got good mind dots. Too bad we dont have a mind hit or even a scatter hit
However on ranged people I sometimes just blast them with Hit3 and get health (ranged and with no melee mitigation)

When I fight ranged, I always stick a few dizzies on them, then KD them. Since if you Kd them then use Hit3, you make them stand up, but if they ar edizzy, no stabing up, then I spam Hit3 on them. I am speed capped, and I use my 1020 LVA on them which is 3.2 speed, I can hit em for around 600 pts of damage before armor. I refuse to use DOTs, so I run away from melee stackers. And I do amazingly well vs Jedi, using those same tactics.

Mind and if they're jedi health then mind(since it's usually their smallest), then spam states and hit3 with 900+ lva.

If I'm fighting against a normal person that isn't a doc, I start off with my 247 str action poison, followed by 2 200+ action poisons that stack. Then I try to KD+Dizzy and use leghit. Most of the time this works. If it's a tough fight then I'll use my 220 mind poison lance, Stun them, KD+Dizzy, pull out my Scythe and start using Headhit3.

The thing I do like about that is the action pool is atypical persons pool that they dont worry about. Heck, some people dont even armor legs in pvp. No pixie, muon, blu milk to compensate it either. There is a spice for action, but I havent touched it in ages.
Most opponents and including myself will pop straight or from a kd even with dizzy. Not always but I'd say 70%. So its hard to keep the pvp templates down.
