Although i am playing the game for months, i have been mostly a PVE player. Recently i started playing PVP, first on the non veteran server and now, after hitting VR ranks, on Thornblade. I started as a nightblade tank which worked nice on PVE but around level 45 i decided to respec and change play style so now i am a medium armor DW/Bow DPS. (As a result my bow skill line hasn't touched level 50 yet)
The problem now is that on PVP i am not at all satisfied with the amount of damage i seem to do. I don't use add ons mostly because i am afraid of incompatibilities (i had a relatively bug free experience until now) so i cant tell what the exact numbers are. I am only judging from the reduction i see on the enemy health bar. Compered to the damage i get and how fast i die, i feel very ineffective.
I am Vr1, the skills i use are: Immovable,ambush,concealed weapon,rending slashes,blinding flurry for DW and Magnum shot, swallow soul, Venom arrow, Ambush, Impale for Bow. Ultimate is either Incapacitating strikes or Soul Tether. My weapon damage is ~110 for bow and ~135 for DW. Critical chance is ~25% for bow and ~20% for DW. Spell damage is 80-90 (Don't remember exact number)
I ll be thankful for any advice you give concerning PVP and please be kind. I am simply not that experienced in MMO's and especially PVP. By the way do you thing its most importand to go for extra weapon/spell damage or for extra critical chance?

✭✭✭For now my suggestion is to get yourself to a higher vet rank and level up your skills. The difference between V1 and V14 is huge and a large portion of the pvp population is V12-V14.
For the last question. unless you can get ridiculous amounts of crit, damage is much better in pvp due to everyone that knows what they are doing having at least 5 pieces with impenetrable on them which makes most crit useless.Go for more damage and more penetration.Edited by PBpsy on September 20, 2014 4:03PMESO forums achievementsProud fanboiElitist jerkTrollHaterFan of icontested(rainbow colors granted)0
