Advantages and Weaknessess - Blizzard Sector

**coolsville** · 10-12-2004, 02:39 AM

Hi, i like pvp alot, but im pretty bad at it.

I think it would be nice if someone made like an advantage and weakness chart for the most popular pvp types, this way i think it would be easier for people to decide what character to make, before they make one.

For example, describing a FOHer

Advantages:
Auto-aim
etc...

Disadvantages:
Can be absorbed
Can be resisted
etc...

I think it would be helpful to have like a chart for this.

Sounds like a good idea, question is who is going to take the time to make the chart?

Bone necro:

Advantages:
Tons of mana, life, speed, resists with average gear.
Unresisted damage.
Can be used for both PvM and PvP.
Fast, piercing attack.
Player/monster-seeking attack.
Scattered attack.
Can MF in pit well.

Disadvantages:
Godly gear = costly.
Charms = costly.
Rarely get 1-hit KO.

And my second faveourite build... Lightning Javazon!

Advantages:
Amazing in PvM
Easily 1-hit KO in duels
Pierces
Easy 1-hit kill in PvM as well
Kills Minions of Destruction Easily
Kills Bosses Easily
Kills anything big easily.
Massive MF cower
Rushes well
Doesn't need much AR, if any.
Just plainly owns :)

Disadvantages:
Low mana, needs leech.
Useless versus LI-PI monster (rare)
Can be resisted/absorbed
Slow teleport
Must sacrifice Damage for passive skills
