M3z Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 Hey Guys, Figured I'd share my pvp build with you guys. The primary way to play this build is to webnade->powerboost->envenom->weaken->neurotoxic breath to lock down your opponent and let the knights start headsplitting. With this build you get around 1200 HP (with hp accolades). In BG mode you will be pretty tanky especially with life drain. Knights will chunk HP if they get in close. This is a hard build to play but it's really fun and rewarding. Endurance is hard to manage though so make sure you bring blues.

Radamond Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 I've been amazed by the duel video with this build! Was wondering if something similar could be pulled off with a beasts/poison or even demon/poison but Life Drain seem somewhat essential for the playstyle... Any tips for an aspiring PvP MM who wants to try something different from Necromancy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M3z Posted June 11, 2019 Author Share Posted June 11, 2019 I think you could pull off a demon/poison, like you were saying, life drain makes up for poison's lack of self heal so demon would lose that but make up for it in ranged damage. Beasts on the other hand, I have never seen anyone roll one before and I am not familiar with the set myself, I know it's all melee which would probably be a pain to manage in pvp (all the pets running into melee potentially leaving you out of BG mode) but poison's lockdown is quite strong if you can get it off which would let your beast pets get in. Beast pets also accept the most damage procs of any pets which could lead to some potentially high damage. I just don't know how much damage they do or what their power set is. If their powers are mostly AOE they won't be too effective until pvp AOE damage nerf gets reverted. If they are mostly single target bites or whatever then I think they have potential. I have considered rolling a beast/kin as well, speedboosting the pets to let them get into melee faster.

Justisaur Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 I had a necro/poison on live before the area splash, it was quite fun and thematic, but very difficult to play. I didn't get very far with it, but have it still on the back burner as something I want to play again after I've got my mains worked out. As to beasts, they are all single target except for the Dire Wolf, which has both AoE and single target. The lions have a heal and def buff (both beasts only unfortunately) and another damage or def buff in fortify pack, and there's a lot of other stuff going on I don't remember. They're very tanky compared to Necro. I suspect they'd work better against hard single targets than necro, and putting the poison buff on the alpha should work well. I might try that on Justin in my quest for the best MM for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M3z Posted June 14, 2019 Author Share Posted June 14, 2019 If you have melee pets yeah you better go black scorpion and get webnades (as well as powerboost) for the extra mezzing and -jump. Youtube | Twitch | PvP Council Indomitable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
