You won that one dont even no what to say to that. Not even gonna bother have a good day:) Also not trying to troll idk what that means lmao. If anything some of you are out to get me always posting negative stuff towards me. When orginaly all i did was call Aopm noobish because its stupid that everyone in bash that one time had it. Have some creativity or atleast lets have some melee focused people more so then we had. Is that alot to ask for? Those who insult me i insult back i call it even:)
Depends what time and whos all online. You can ask in zone chat for pvpers some useually join but takes awhile if its slow. I predict more will pvp soon i got feeling that pvp will increase.
As for builds you underestimate your weakness against shadow strike Aopm is good but i one shoted plently of you. Only a few have survived and its cause of shield buffs/ or MD. Without your buffs you wont be much threat.
I have 2 40 shadow strikers now. People don't "underestimate" it. You give it too much credit. It's another hard hitting power, except unlike others in use, it is much more difficult to setup requiring the stealth.
For example, if my Char is hit by a shadow strike that is buffed by stealth and doesn't get a dodge proc, she'll die in one shot. But as stealth is required in order for shadow strike to work and she can see through typical stealth, landing the shadow strike is very difficult, and will typically require me to be held/rooted and distracted by other players.
Shadow strike is basically a hard hit with strict requirements to fufill. While it can be deadly in lower tiers since there's rarely perception there, t4 perception is standard for any regular pvper. We get you want melee to "come back", but please try and think before you post unless you want to be completely disregarded.
Lemme get this straight... Without their buffs they're easy? Well, ok then. Without your stealth you're a joke. I mean, wtf are you even trying to say? Without their powers you can kill them? Well, whee. Good for you. O_o
God, there's gotta be one of these players in every pvp batch, doesn't there? Listen, dude. A lot of the people that you're tossing around insults at and giving an attitude/calling noobs have been playing pvp in this game for 2-3 years. Assume they know more than you do, and listen to em. You might even learn something. I presume winning bash is a rarety for you, since you felt the urge to *start a thread about it*.

On this accont it was my first level 40 win. I pvped for good year and half before F2p update i no a few tricks. Im not insulting anyone unless they insult me first is that wrong? No it def isnt get with the program your just my minion.
maybe it tough for you but geting off shadow strike is cake. Doesnt always kill the target but i tend to aim for the kill.
You really think so... I recall you getting ripped apart the last bash we were in together and then complaining people were farming you.
If people are farming you, it can't be cake to get off that shadow strike. Remember, you're celebrating a single bash win, I'd have to go through my alts to count mine. Then again, they hardly mean anything. People bash for the fun of it, or attempt at fun.
I had to build so much utility to lock an opponent down for the shadowstrike, something not required for your typical setup, so much that I abandoned the idea. There are too many factors you have to compensate for just for the sake of using a single attack. Instead of offering something new it merely takes the current dynamic and complicates it further. Why build around shadow strike when one can build around something else, not worry about stealth, and effectively match the damage without the strain on the power tray?
Of course, from your previous posts, that may be a bit over your head. People have shut you down mercilessly and yet for some strange reason you're under the delusion that you believe yourself to be an authority on pvp.
While it does appear you wish to be on that level, exaggerating your abilities will only display your desperation.
Almost won tonight came in thrid place:) I been doing just fine with Shadow strike and im working on something big. Expect to see a new build they will call the Alodylis XD!!

Actually, I don't think the problem is him assuming "oldbies" know more than he. I think the problem is veterans assuming he knows less than they do. The whole attitude of "I've never seen you, therefore you must be new, and you must know less than I do" is born of elitism and inflexibility. This post isn't a comment for or against him, but I'm speaking about the general attitude of many.

His post history says it all. He's already leaning towards shev status. No one cares if someone is new. New people are just dandy.

What is it with you guys? :P You're always picking on the little people. Just because you don't know someone doesn't mean they know nothing. If you actually took my replies into context without infusing them with your own perceptions, you'd see that I started posting and got harassed by a moral midget with a personal agenda, one who I thought was an okay person until he spoke, I lost a friend, and everyone else stood down while some replied with illogical "reasons" why my ideas weren't good and you expect me to do all the calculations for you.
I don't have the time or the patience to spell things out for you about a video game when you don't take the time to look at the results that are already on your screen. I'm not obligated to prove my claims when I already understand them. The burden of proof is with you, if you express an interest in knowing if a statement is true or false. How interested you are is up to you.

Who's picking on the little people?
It has nothing to do with not knowing someone. Herogamer was a new face to me, and the first time he came around with his PA sleep combo I spent most of the time face planted as I wasn't prepared to deal with him. A "new" person or unfamiliar face can be just as dangerous if not more so than the usual competition.
Also, that last post wasn't even referring to you - was referring to Alodylis. Are you getting the impression I meant you and thus changed my he to she? You made your pespectives clear, and while I may disagree with them, you at least write in standard english.
When someone gets a shev comparison, there's either a language barrier or someone whose english is so bad... it's just kinda sad.
Its a Shev or Shevian in manner HIT IT WITH FIRE AND MAGNETS! :O
*edit* wonder what Shev thinks about becoming CO's and to some extent STO's insult of choice ...I ganked a Fed ship in Trek the other day got called a F@&$ing massive Shev

It takes a "special" kind of person to hit that kind of infamy
I remember the first time I ran into Shev in Bash, I had sent her a tell with a suggestion to her build, trying to help her out. She responded "Don't send me tells again."
So I farmed her with bloodmood devices for the rest of the day, good times, good times.
I feel like the load screen for pvp arenas should come with a message about not ****ing with xeno.
Also, as for me going after the dude and if it was fair? He's the one that started tossing out the attitude, and have you seen his posts elsewhere? "why can people see through my stealth. That's unfair" etc... I'm not making assumptions about a noob, lol it's pretty evident given the posting history. It wouldn't be any problem, the pvp community is usually friendly and helpful, but the combination of dumb posting and an elitist attitude? That's pretty much asking to get ripped on. But, hell. I started out congratulating him, before the attitude came out. I don't think it's a matter of ripping on a small person. It seems to me more like pointing out when an ******* is acting like an *******.

That's exactly it. I wouldn't say we're necessarily always a friendly bunch, but if someone asks for help and doesn't have an ego about it, their build, etc. - people will help.
The only other thing that gets the community to be reluctant to help is when they've offered sound advice and the person asking continually ignores it.

That's why I never help people unless they ask... because chances are they'll be rude about it; I have to assume they don't care until they ask. I don't throw my pearls before swine.
Having said that, I used to kill shev every time I would see her. ^_^ I guess I never got her mad enough as I didn't receive any death threats. My skill level improved during that time, so now I feel bad about fighting her. I don't duel her unless she challenges me... it's not a fair fight. I think she's cute in a way but I keep my distance. I don't want to get on her bad side. :P
I see what you are saying now. I met him in game and he is nice, just a bit misguided and too sure of his abilities. ^_^ I think he's just talking trash, not being serious. I enjoyed my duel with him and let's just say he'd better rely on more than just shadow strike or any single ability to win B.A.S.H. :P
All i need is my shadow strike i might not win bash alot but i sure as well will piss off those i kill! Its all in fun tho trash talking is what pvp is fore you talk smack to each then battle it out. Most of the time people are more friendly to each other after a good duel atleast thats how i feel.

Lmao this thread cracked me up i was read it over again very funny. Tbh i didnt no much when i returned i was used to old game. Personaly dont like everyone being a tank its not how game was intended but hey get with the program right?
