I have a pvp toon that is a rogue/barb. It stuns people using sap/knockout and then plants a bomb on them

Pretty much any build that can solo can do PvP. Because as you pointed out - you'll likely be alone.

Most efficient is thus probably unclean LGS or HGS depending on your level :)

Some sort of Con-dumped Elf I'd guess.

I have always wanted to try a team death match or capture the flag but noone ever wants too

Well because it would be way to easy for a DC wiz to simply stun you and neg you to death...they can get DCs way higher than players can resist, they can dispel your Death Ward, and players have no Epic Ward so it'd be pretty easy to stick at most 30 neg levels pretty quickly...the only viable PVP builds would be Paladin, WF and VKF, since they have innate immunity to Energy Drain.

Of those probably a VKF Rogue since they're among the single-target DPS kings

But yeah PVP really has no place in DDO as structured, min-max gameplay, nor should it...its just for fun with your PvE chars :)

My guild and my friends have done it a couple of times. What server are you on?

Or just run shadowdancer, but anyway a wizard can't do anything against a furyshot from bow/thrower. As long as said ranged char has FoM on gear and either a deathblock item or spell absorb, the wizard literally can't do anything meaningful before getting one shotted.

The other thing that's generally extremely good for PvP is a shiradi magic missile spammer, as long as you take the wizard past life, because magic missiles almost immediately deplete spell absorb and there is no protection against the wizard past life (once the target has no spell absorb anyway).

I would have thought a Fey Warlock would win every time casting the no-save Dark Delerium and using the next 20 seconds wisely.

I think the taverns that have pits can be put to better use.

Adventurer jello wrestling?

I didn't think they let gelatinous cubes into the taverns?

I can think of a couple builds that can counter that easily for instance a occult barbarian with high spell resistance should do the trick I am not sure how ddo is "structured" against pvp but okay I think you can have fun playing pvp or pve depending on one's personal preference

like anything.

I am not into PvP 'in D&D'
but some folks are, I get that.

So if I WAS into PvP, and I am not.
I would be really disappointed that it was a tavern brawl in basically a pit.
LAME - no, let us be more correct, EPIC LAME

That is why I am all for removing it from the tavern, because it is an embarrassment.

That's exactly where it belongs D&D is a coop game.
