Neverwinter - Great Weapon Fighter - Arena PvP - Nikuyo
Recorded a match during the B3 weekend. My team lost but it was more so that you could see the GWP gameplay and what they're capable of.
The powers I used were: Mighty Leap, Takedown, Restoring Strike. These 3 encounter skills cover the most important things needed in PvP; mobility, CC, and burst.
The mount is an Armored Howler that can be bought for 4000 Zen from the shop.
Music is from a Lindsey Sterling youtube playlist I was listening to at the time of recording. I think it's Crystallize > Elements > Shadows.
If you have any questions feel free to ask!

I'll roll this class on release.
Toons:
New: CW Level 60
GF = Level 60
DC = Level 60
TR = Level 60
During the time recording this video I didn't know about the PvP pots. I was thinking, "What the hell is this OP rogue skill that heals for 5k HP?!!?"
I picked some up and I became immortal ~_~

Yeah, they are strong, especially when the opponent isn't using them. I tried to tell people to get them so we can get a better feel of the balance. Since I run a good amount of defense, I should benefit more from them.
Good video btw. I play basically the same style but utilize different means. Instead of leap for a gap closer, I use the charge. And for CC I use not so fast and the slow instead of takedown. I'll probably switch to takedown though after watching your vid.
I am unsure what style I will play post 40. I never got a game to pop in the bracket and wanted to give flourish and the aoe pull a try. Flourish in PvE is very good single target. The aoe pull is good as well. I can see using it in conjunction with a cleric aoe.
I noticed on the scoreboard your team had a far higher combined score and more kills than the red team, yet they won handily. Seems odd.
I was using Not so Fast to begin with but I found that Takedown allowed me a guaranteed Restoring Strike. I considered using the charge but I hate that you always have to be a certain distance away for it to end "on top" of your target. I always ended up dashing through them only making the gap larger.
I can't speak for anything higher then the 20 bracket as that's as far as I got but I really think focusing on the single target powers is the only way to go for PvP.

I think I just happened to be grouped with people who just wanted to PvP rather than point control. I almost never cap objectives in domination style arenas. I just want to PvP!

I put points into stats as str > dex > con. I was only in my 20s though so they're kind of negligible. My slotted powers were Leap Jump, Takedown, and Restoring Strike. My daily was "jumpupintheairandslam". What else would you like to know?
