Hey. I duel very often and I've noticed that nowadays I am starting to get my ass kicked HARD. I am a pistoleer with 1/1/2/1. I know it might be a little early but when does the going get a little easier and I can actually beat some one in PvP? When does this ass kicking stop?

The problem is, your not gonna hit most people with fire kd and actually get the dizzy to stick. Fire kd isnt a very reliable knockdown, and since most of the people who pvp take kd food, or have stacked have good kd defense, than you dont have much hopes of knocking anyone down. I would spend the sp in something else.

How to lose a duel -


Go in armored, buffed, with a good weapon.


Spam specials, and don't move. Do not move. Stay in one spot. If you move, you may win.


Don't heal. Some call this cheating, hey I spent the points, I spend the creds on stims, I am healing.


Don't move. You might miss a special. Especially don't use burst run.


And don't even think about using any tactics, like shoot and scoot. Stand there, get your butt kicked, then whine.


Finally, be a dumbazz and pick on an unarmored guy carrying a scout blaster who has a non combat sign over his head. He will quickly drink, switch weapons, then shoot and move til you are lying there, incapped.

This is for PvP not uber in any means but lets me be uber because I have soo many choices in what wepon to use. Im Pvp you must adjust to you opponet in real time. If you looking to spam 1 attack then dont PvP cuz it doesnt work that way. The abilty to adapt to your opponet in real time is key and not to panic. I always start off with Jawa/stun and use flurry to stun until it sticks (to lower their defenses) then goto mind bleed then HeadShot 3 (all rifle so far) then I look at what stat pool on them is dropping fastest-a couple of advandced strafes2's answer that question) once again..all rifle so far.


Other guy might be spamming specials on you (watch combat log in real time to tell) and hurting his OWN pool(s) for you! If thats the case then...


Depending what is droping on them and if i determine they have stun armor on i do this...


1. Health pool their weak spot then i whip out Gen Pistol (Fan shot) stun damage/with both health bleeds)


2.Action pool their weak spot then i whip out Elite carbine (not most damage but tightest range of damage so their ranged damged mitigation has less of an effect on my damage output to them) and stack bleeds first -which also throws a posture change down chance on them-and then go for Full auto Area AND single for states and 2-3 chargeshot just in case he's weak in KD defense. If i cant KD in 2-3 shots, I'll forget about it and move onto cripple/Full auto Single.


3.Mind their weak spot then i stick with rifle (Jawa for now) or if i determine theres theres no stun armor(helm on them) then i whip out my Tenloss 6b rifle or even my best SPEED sliced T-21 with mind/range powerup and advanced strafe 2 for the ULTIMATE damage allround and Master headshot...especially if people are watching. Whipping out the T-21 in PvP at point blank range just looks kewl.


Now as you can tell by my Sig im all ranged and no melee....this is my weakness. Chances are im fighting a melee profession. I DO NOT KITE ! Acurracy drops substantially while moving. i try to keep 20m away but if my opponet is obviously a TK/Fence/sword and he is determined to get in range..I let him...why....because


1. he is more comfortable up close therfore letting down his guard !


2. now i am at pointblank range and even with rifle at master level at PB range I rarely miss...so let him come up to me.


3. I am aware of the master PvP'ers on my server and if your not one of them..chances are your spamming your 'best shot at me' eating away at his own pool (that im targeting of course)


I do loose and alot..and that is because I take on everybody...and as an OVERT Reb on my server im am ALWAYS outnumberd..in which case im gonan loose anyway...but I fight..all the time and its fun to loose cuz its good for roleplay and if I only faught when I'd KNOW I'd win well..that would get boring. Might as well challenge Novice Armorsmiths waiting for a shuttle ya know what I mean?


But if its 1 vs. 1, It's on my brother !


My only concern is a Master Fencer with his Acklay Stun Baton in which case im pretty much toast most of the time cuz he can out do me in stun damage because of speed.


HOW I GET READY FOR BATTLE (PvP of course)


Full buffs from only the best Doctors (2200-2500 EXTRA per buff at least because they have their droid out/max clothing on and I wil leven provide med enhancemet food for them) the list of these Doctors on my friends list is small and if theyre not online..guess what...no serious PvPing that day..o well..that runs about 8-10k for those buffs on my server.


Then full Dancer AND Mind buff s these dont last as long (2 hours verses the 3 hour HAM buffs and take longer to find so by the time I get it i've wasted an hour of HAM buffs probalbly)


2 400+ 42 min brandies drank 10 min apart.

2 730 Veg canapes at same time..

10 min later 1 flameout

Now im usually 3400 at least across the board in HAM (Mind a litle lower say 2900)

Clone....

Overt...

Check radar..

at this time my stomach is only 1/3 full leaving me headroom for the all important drinking of 2 blue milks (600 + mind heal) if needed during combat


I am wearing Full sliced 40% stun armor with4 armor attachments (which shall reamian anomynous )in one of my bracers with Encumbrance sliced Helm..I want every point possible in my mind secondaries...cuz lets face it...the Uber PvP players out there do stun/mind damage.

Bandolier with max clothing attachments

Underarmor shirt with stun defense and something else...I forget..PLUS its loaded with my other Skill tapes which shall reamin anomynous

1 sheild generator...(Old habit)

The second I see a red blip on my radar in town I pop my muon and eat all my magic foods (wanna leave stoamch with enoughdrink room for at least 2 milks if needed)and if ive timed it right Ive got about 14-29 min left on my brandies AND Canape and 30 min left on my Flameout (+ 159% damage reduction first 4 attacks that hit me..1st 4 that ACTUALLY hit keep in mind)

At this point with my template and attachments/food/drink ALL my defenses are ABOVE +125 (yes i know its capped except for my dizzy is at +80...o well)


there you have it....theres alot to do an absorb here and for what..I could run into 3-4 overts and die in 2 minutes cuz i get jumped...o well. I like getting suited up for battle. The whole process is very ritualistic for me. But if I only every see 1 or 2 overts at a time Im not too worried....


This is a very time consuming and calculated way of playing (10-12k with buffs and foods) but guess what...PvP is the most FUn for me in this game..that is what it is ALL about..for me...

Tell me, did you really have fun getting trying to get your jedi slot??? I got so sick of grinding away at my silent holo and coupled with the fact that Im really ONLY playing this game to pass the time till Everquest 2, Jedi was not a reality for me...so I went for what i belive the BEST template for PvP AND PvE...it keeps the game somwhat fun still....and that rush i get from being shot from nowhere...by a red blip (cuz i was chatting hehe) cannot be replaced...and is better than making 2,639 fiberblast panels or gun gunheads or whatever...


Hope this helps or gives you Ideas

Come join me in Everquest2 when it comes out...Its by SONY too so they cant get mad...

Just picture it this way...Take SWG make it dungeons and dragons style....and TONS of content..a neverending skill tree basically..INSANE graphics..the NPC talk to you with voice overs (over 160 HOURS worth before release!!) All profesions are very important towards your group...ALL quests/dungeons are ' Instanced' which means theres not a TKM killing all the troopers in the stronghold and gettin all the holos every day all day like in the holo drop craze of SWG.

INSANE charcter design ..take a look Go google everquest2 and start reading about it...even if your not too interested..you WILL BE ASSIMILATED and you got 6 more months till it comes out...see you there and until then...see you OVERT ! ! ! !
