Best PVP build (Class+Race) (?)

[TomerNaydnov123]

Hey guys,
I would like to know what is the best PVP build.
Yes, there will be people who say that there isn't "best".
And yes, there will be people who say that this game isn't based on PVP, and it's waste of time.
But, I got my reasons , and it's not my main toon.. only need one to keep for an emergency.
So guys, what do you think?
Consider that if I build a caster, there will be people with pale and etc..
The race is important too!
Thanks, and have a good day!

There is no best there are only those better and better equipped. Knowing your opponent is probably the best weapon in your Arsenal.

A slightly longer version of Enderoc's answer:

Do you want to kill people before they can see you? An Assassin is great for one-shotting and can get a decent Dire Charge pretty easily for escapes / gap-closing, but requires the enemy not have an unreasonable Fort save.

Pretty much any DC caster is going to be similar - they'll be squishier, but they also have multiple spell options to get around saves.

You could always go with the Pure Warlock for tankiness and bursts, which should be sufficient for anyone who tries to get close to you. Hurl Through Hell is a great way to get folks at range, but at the same time your saves won't be stellar.

If you're a melee fan, a 12 Bard / 6 Fighter / 2 Rogue is pretty solid but won't have the same burst as, say, a FotW THF pure Barbarian. TWF rangers will do more damage than pretty much any other melee in the long run, but they're squishy and require sustained combat.

I could go on, but the bottom line is that pretty much every class will have at least one or two really solid PVP options. Pick your style (melee vs. ranged vs. spell, burst vs. sustained, CC vs. straight damage, escapism vs. tankiness) and then we can talk build options

Hey ,
Thanks for the reply.
I would like to have a build for a spell caster, who can kill quickly and like no one will be fast enough to get to me haha.
(I don't have Warlock or Monk). I've heard that fvs is good?
hmm actually if possible I would like to have a build for quick kill caster , and maybe a melee tank (who can dmg some as well)
Thank you.

Most dedicated PVPers are going to be wearing a Pale Lavender Ioun Stone (Absorbs spells / 50 charges) so most of your spells will have a hard time getting through. I personally would suggest an archer build running in FOTW destiny.

...but then again, I rarely PVP.

alot of people told me to go Archer.. if so , I still need a good build for that
Maybe you could find me one? I would appreciate it.
