its so easy to tell when people either

1. use 2 comps to farm wins

2. disconnect from the game when there team is going to lose

to maintain a "cool looking" record

Does disconnecting not count as a loss?
BTW why is it in every vod I see rangers with exactly 6 jack spike? Is there some special combo?

edit: and how does this look for a PvP-oriented elementalist?

raging dragon slash is pretty damn crazy awesome. HOWEVER, its super hard to use. there is very little time to adjust the angles between slashes, and if you dont land the third hit, there is no launch and no damage output.

Ive seen pros use it to set up for the lvl 45 skill though. Stop it after 2 slashes to end up in front of them. Since we dont have the 45 skill, we just gota land the third hit.

It's a good thing clear frags are so easy to get, since pvp really cuts through them as a soulbender. I go camp in the corner oh hey that's 2 frags. Tombstone as a wakeup? Thanks, I'll take one more.... This would annoy me, except that I have 3600 of them.

Durability loss is much more annoying, that should go disappear :<

I decided I'm going to pick up and max rhasa after all.... This will almost certainly cut into my ghost slash levels but I can live with that for superior camp-out-ghost-step's-cooldown abilities. I ran into a berserker who decided he wasn't going to let me camp in the corner so he ran into saya + rhasa ... I think he ended up taking about half as much damage during his combo as I did. Rhasa will also be really nice pve, since random enemies are dumb. And since I mostly party with a witch, who has exploding shururu to group them up....

(Actually, soulbender + witch has been good for pve. They both suck at soloing, witch because she doesn't have enough single-target damage output to kill bosses, soulbender because it's ridiculously MP-intensive and your only crowd control is saya/rhasa, but soulbender has fine single-target damage to take care of bosses and witches make mobs super easy.

Also shururu is op. We get overkills on King's with it most of the time. Too good.)

I really should find some cast speed gear for my ghosts, Keiga, and ghost step. I'm too lazy to actually sell my junk rares though so I only have like 2 mil to spend

i fought this chinese grappler, who owned me pretty bad. He was so good with tornado kicks and his movement was too good. Plus this guy had speed gears which is just crazy, his necksnap would stuff my uppercuts like every time. Lost 2 bars and delvled to 3, then he brings a lvl 34 WM. Great sword user. This guy is like as good as kum sung it seems. Doesnt miss any combos almost. Still has amazing movement on slayer. Lost 2 more bars to him lol. He can do insane floor scrapper/grabs with lightsaber too. I think attack speed is really neccessary for extended combos on the floor. He said attack speed makes the timing alot easier too on the scrappers and grabs.

so now i need attack speed gear. Donations plz

I started playing this game earlier this week. I didn't like it at first, but after configuring my PS3 controller it's a lot more fun. It reminds me of SNES and Genesis action games I use to play as a kid. Don't really know so much about weapons, armors, or skills but it's pretty fun.

So are there any good places to learn more about PvP technique and stuff, other than playing a lot and watching VODs that I don't understand? I'm just kind of spell mashing right now, but would like to put time and effort in to become really good :3

I don't think Battle Mages can really do anything PvP at level 18 but whatever.

I thought the lag complaint due to the P2P system was overblown, but wow is it noticeable playing a melee class.

I usually don't have any lag problems (now that my college internet is decent). If I do it's usually with someone who clearly has a problem on their end since it's almost always very little lag or desync-all-the-time lag.
