Cyclone and facebreaker pros
Please just scrap all pvp aside from 3v3, this is rng against fotm try hards. Seriously only fought two different characters, fb pros and traps. This is the worst excuse of pvp. Last edited by terrex#7466 on Jan 3, 2015, 2:04:12 PM

Oh I forgot about molten strike. OP compared to all the other melee skills, but beatable.
probably should be nerfed a little but idc. Actually I think the only inherently broken skill is still Puncture. Everything else has actual counters. 5 bleed flasks from now on? |

" Okay, so what counters fb + reactive gems + cyclone instead of traps? Can you guys stop beating off over these 2-3 stupid op boring as shit builds and move on with it? The reactive gems + shield + whatever you want to use for your attack = instant win unless you fight a mirror match up or traps. Its just a cycle at this point and unless you join it, the pvp just makes you miserable. |

" OK I'll bite: - Use range - Use traps (DO IT) - Don't use multistrike - Outmaneuver them (Facebreakers still have the worst movement options of any spec) - Get better block+dodge than the big clumsy marauders can get and RNG them out - If you're a spellcaster, just nuke them? I can't imagine this being very hard... I do it pretty easily in FFA anyway. Everyone can do AT LEAST 2 of these things, which should be enough to beat them. And if you get a quick first win and REALLY don't respect their build, go ahead and draw them out for the rest of the match. I wouldn't do this myself but there's nothing stopping you. Hey maybe if I ever get the crafting guide done it's time for a strategy guide! ...Nah. Last edited by Fightgarr#3134 on Jan 3, 2015, 3:12:28 PM

" Hahah, more like... Hug a corner then flicker in when they get in close and instantly kill them. Say all you want to protect your build. None of these actions really matter unless you are specd for traps against the cheesy cyclone / fb / molten. Keep making the pvp into something it isn't, you guys actually disgust me with your attitude and shun towards any even playing field and balance. Your post supports the only trappers can fight the cyclone / fb / molten. Fun pvp with 2 viable builds. Last edited by terrex#7466 on Jan 3, 2015, 3:18:33 PM

PvP is about winning at any cost. The guys who are winning are PvPing the best. The rest need to improve.
