Thread: 210+ Trader <3 plz

  1. #141
    Hum. I know, gettin old. Cant we just have some nanos Combined together?

    I mean, MP has Composite Mochams. Where is my Composite drains?
    Already mentioned it, still want it.

    I think every PVP trader agrees that our main weakness is the time needed to land all those debuffs.

    Just Flag those Nanite enhanced ones for pvm only, and make a pvp version draining 500 skill, 2k AC, 100dmg and 300 AAO? Levellock to 215, 1.6k TS/Pm needed, 100% defcheck. Done.

    Yes, i can already hear the flames.

    How about an MA has to meditate half an hour before being allowed to attack ?

    it s at the top but i ll bump it anyway. Had a bad day as a trader today...chain killed by enf/keep/advs aint easy to deal with especially when you try your best to survive.

    As I said once before... DON'T TOUCH my teddy bear on my cot, in the buffing room of BS!!!! He is my sole comfort, as I spend more time there then fighting... and no one wants to talk to me in the buffingn room for some reason :/
    220 Doc ~ "Dr." Ittledoc As of 1 DEC 07 setup || 218 Trader ~ Ittletrad (TL7 gimpage on Trader profession) parked... TS monkey no reason to go any higher
    220 Enf ~ Ittlejohn (1HB FTW!!!) [E] || 146 Fix ~ Johnittle
    216 NT ~ Nanoblender || 11 Crat "WTB" Spellbot

    haha, that made my day

    That being said, bump for composite nanos of some sort. During my little PvP experience with my (now retired) 220 trader, i found that between all the nanos I had to cast (repeatedly), my target either:

    a) ran away being chased by someone else
    b) after resisting a few of my attempts to drain him, he kindly came over and showed me the way to decon before resuming what he was doing
    c) simply didn't care as a -250 AR didn't affect him much (and using the 2nd drain is a total waste of time, it never lands on anyone)

    As for roots, I've rarely been able to land them on anyone except soldiers (sorry guys).

    Sadly, I think the trader profession is doomed from the very start. Having to "waste" alot of time draining and whatnot doesn't really go well with the current "alpha online" state of the game. In my opinion, a profession that needs time to cripple his opponent should have the tools to keep him alive long enough to do that.

    Since we aren't getting any defense tools that are actually useful and reliable, maybe we can get the means to cripple (lol) our opponents faster ? Pweese ? Like maybe it's time we can alpha with our drains ?

    Also, I've always found it ridiculous that a profession that uses mostly crit reliant weapons does not have access to a crit buff. The 5% from research is most welcome, but it is still not enough. Sure, you can get pretty decent crit rate by stacking all the crit buffing items in game, but that would mean making huge sacrifices that would gimp us even more.

    As for the people who still think GTH is overpowered or in some way unfair, I'd like to quote my conversation with a doc I was fighting in BS (after he got killed, not by me):

    [doc]: gth sucks
    [me]: i know
    [me]: ubt sucks too tho
    [doc]: that true

    The truth is there's alot of things that suck, and GTH is no different. UBT, a tripple or SnD alpha that sends me to decon disables me just as well as GTH disables docs and NTs. I don't see anything unfair with that.

    Oh, and since nobody will ever read this or take it seriously, may I ask who had the bright idea that traders should have dark blue ranged inits ? I'm sorry, I just had to ask that

    Kudos to you traders still out there, I for one gave up and moved on to greener pastures.

    The same one that gave us cyan nano init and thought we should kill our opponents draining their hp to death.

    Long, painful, and ridiculous death, that has the only disadvantage to work only on people full agg and afk.

    Your pets can do that? I summoned them and sent them on a level 32 bronto mama and they didnt manage to kill it before they despawned

    I just got all the new nanos on my trader (155 atm) and I gotta say.
    Its just stupid! 2x Nanite drains, corporate or industrial and people got like no chance hitting me at all.
    I just cant wait untill I run into a soldier and "Borrow" his reflect.

    With this feeling I allmost dont want to lvl my trader.
    Just doing my 2,5k tokens now and then I'll continue the grind to 220 so I can get asswhooped by everyone!

    if you do find a trader still in circulation, be sure to check the expiry date, they are usually marked :best before june 2001.

    I do my best to fulfill my role as a competent pvp trader. /flex.

    /sarcasm off.

    Hmm anyone mind counting the time until i was done landing all debuffs?

    Then calculate the damage (same time)

    - a soldier could have done with Dshark+ perks
    - same for agent (Cobra)
    - Lets say advy and keep for fun too.
    - maybe NT?
    I know Masta has 46% nanodmgincrease from equip.
    Count that on spamming Triples.

    Then calculate the times i would have died from each of them until i was safe.
    Maybe you will find one profession of those who will do lesser as 13000 damage in that time. if that is the case we have a viable offense wich is a viable defense the same time.
