Dont' do it. PvP in this game is unmitigated garbage. From the stacking of plasmotic leech with an occasional Aceton assimilator / energy siphon on the Klingon side to the now unholy pet spam fest on the Fed side (which 2 copies of bugged again FAW don't put a dent in). If getting blown away by that garbage is still not enough for you, wait there's more! Phaser procs, Chrono torps, tractor pets, energy siphon pets, and behind it all the crazy damage and great tanking of any pvp cookie cutter escort. yah!! wee!! Don't listen to the jobless basement dwellers that frequent these forums. Listen to me and the truth shall set you free of this trash pvp.

    interesting post.

    horizon

    oh, and by the way, some of the better pvp'rs are professional adults that like trek and competitive gameplay.

    and the escort is the hardest ship to fly in the game

    and since i bet many of us have never heard of you.....wait.....what did you come here to do? insult everyone?

    you made an account just to post that?

    its true, a lot of that stuff can seriously reduce enjoyment sometimes, but it just makes it all the more satisfying when you come out on top in a fight against it, throw all that TRIBBLE back in their faces by out playing them, and out playing them legitimately.

    Everything you listed there has nothing to do with the players, they are just playing with stuff Cryptic gave them. Saying someone is bad at life because they can do something exceptional in a video game is far more shallow in demeanor than the guy that energy siphoned your starship so bad it became a mutli megaton paperweight.

    But..but... some of us Jobless, Basement Dwellers who frequent these forums can actually give good advice and help players like your self go from Nub to scrub to some one that others make topics like this about. :)

    I'm not jobless, and I'm not a basement dweller. Neither are some of the pvpers I play with, a good number of them are stand up citizens who serve their country in one capacity or another. Please no more with this mean spiritedness in the pvp forums, it's tough enough as is to have the various threads here be a good representation of the PVP community. I'm not leet, I'm not uber. I am a pvper though, and I help and welcome anyone new to it that wants to have fun with it.

    Mechanics are one thing, sometimes they need to be fixed at the source, other times you just gotta change ship and or team setup. If players are looking for some helpful threads, just click the link below me sig, or just check out tick0's thread here in the pvp forums.

    To me PVP is about community. For the most part, I like mine. Sure it needs a little shine here or there, but doesn't everything?

    Cheers!

    THANK YOU PERFECT WORLD AND CRYPTIC! I love these new forums where faceless ppl can start troll accounts in order to talk ****! This is SO much better than what we had already. Please spend more time and resources making these kind of vast improvements!

    the combination of anyone being able to post, and the lack of report button is truly a masterful combination. they have so many games, and so many boards, this really hasn't been a problem on any of those yet?

    i am a professional and watched star trek TOS first run. never been a gamer but always a star trek fan and that is why i play STO.

    i did use PVP primarily to test out how well a new ship build is working. now that i am getting more into escorts i do pvp more. i might even take my new cruiser build in pvp.

    Why dont you go ahead and quit the game then if you don't like PVP?
    There is not much else to do with PVE once you get your MACO shields and borg set, only thing left to do in this game is pvp after.

    Try rolling a KDF Tac and get in a BOP and cruise around Kerrat, you may enjoy it:)

    sounds like solid sound advice. i thank you for the heads up...

    wait a minute.... wouldnt that make you a basement jobless dweller too? i mean you took the time to come here and post about it right?....

    and by the way, how is saying "dont do pvp" a truth? that isnt a fact. its not even an opinion. its a suggestion...

    PWE forums are terribly awesome! It's like the wild west. I wonder if this is a real live boy or just somebody's sock puppet? I guess bobbilly, bobbilly1, and bobbilly2 were taken?

    The cookie cutter reference makes me think it's a sock. Who could read that guide and still be unable to achieve at least moderate success in PvP?

    Also, were I jobless I'd be absent from the forum.

    So, since this thread is apparently un-moderated: Mister Robert William the Third, go eat a bag of dicks.

    When you play through all of STO's PvE content you think you are a bad TRIBBLE.

    When you think your a bad TRIBBLE, you go try out PvP without being prepared for the intensity of player versus player combat

    When your unprepared for PvP you get your bad TRIBBLE handed to you quickly and repeatedly.

    When you get your bad TRIBBLE handed to you quickly and repeatedly you go to the forums to rage about it to others.

    When you rage about PvP other players poke fun at you for not being prepared and raging about dying on the forums

    Don't give other players the chance to poke fun at you about being unprepared for PvP

    Get some advice and stop being a rager.

    Pa? Is that you? It's your son, bobbilly4. Why don't you come out of the basement, Pa? Ma says you used to be fun until you said you found somebody wrong on the internet, then you refused to leave the computer.

    I know you're doing important things, but your brother uncle jimbilly2 has been coming over a lot lately, and Ma says she's fine with you never coming upstairs again.

    I guess I'll keep rolling cans of Skoal, beer, and beans down the stairs if that's what you want, but I wish you'd come out and leave them "PvPeckerheads" you're always yelling at alone.

    Your loving son,

    Yup, PWE forum does not come with "report" buttons. So the mods would have to read everything and all that is written on the forum in order to do efficient moderating. This would take the whole cryptic crew...

    So for now (until cryptic goes to the zen store and buys a report button upgrade) only those threads that happen to be read by a dev/mod will be moderated.

    if the various carrier threads of late about the tactical catbox are any indication, there has been no moderate visiting this subforum since before even the change over.

    at least all parties involved have their big boy pants pulled up high enough to not need to go tattle on people for being mean to them on the internet.

    Frankly there are some truth in this...

    Plasmonic leach stacking is TRIBBLE..
    Aceton assimilator teams suck... It really forces the other team to bring something against it--
    Energy siphon you mean the bo is actually really bad and if you mean the pets yeah they can ruin alot of fun unless you manage to clear it.

    Carrier pet spam isn't really a fed only problem I guess you never just really played kdf teams with 2-3 carriers.

    Faw is bugged but it does now less damage then it should just to make it clear.

    Phaser procs is too powerful to be sure 5 players using it.. and why shouldn't you its the best weapon type but not by much and if everyone on the other team use phaser resist plates the other weapon types become better.

    Chroniton torps.. yeah Issue is being resolved, its been like this sence the begining of the game.

    Tractor pets, yeah those should cost someone their job to be honest, can't really play anymore without having Tractor beam protection. (Omega, Polarize hull and TBR)

    Crazy damage and great tanking, from cookie cutter escort well atleast they are the ones that are fun to play imo.

    I guess most of your points are half valid thing is pvp in this game sometimes is good even with all this bad TRIBBLE.
    Noone.
