Slamwich Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Sorry to waste everyone's time if there's much info about this spec out there, but I've had difficulty finding any. (Not this EXACT spec point-for-point obviously, but things like it) http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#301ZbsrrobskZfhbrzh.1 Has anyone done some decent running with it in PvP? Running IGC (3 points in Burning Flame because 3% End is hurrrr), I'm wondering how well it'd stand up. You've got Hydraulics for lol-carrying, and lots of synergy around RS. And would you go for Shield or Gen? Again, I'm sorry if this has been posted a million times, but hopefully I could get a little info on it, even if it has! It's either this or Parakeet for me; I'm just so bothered about the shield mechanic in pvp that it makes me want to avoid it :\ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slamwich Posted January 26, 2012 Author Share Posted January 26, 2012 One bump, then I'll let this decay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malles Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 I'd put that point in Prototype Flamethrower into Kolto Vents. Take that with a grain of salt, I never understand hybrid specs . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pwnyride Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 (edited) Generator def, since I assume you dont plan on running around with Ion cylinder active, your shield chance would be 5% unless u have sheild rating gear(i assume with a dps build you wont). Also i agree that the point placed into Kolto vents would be better for pvp, since well health is great. Railshots always vent heat so you will constantly be getting health with a build focused around railshot and PT pvp builds are generally centered around mobility they can be, and Flamethrower is not one of the best pvp abilites due to channel requirment and short range. Unless always fighting melee players i think Kolto vents is a better choice. Edited January 26, 2012 by Pwnyride Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Therealkoop Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 I think its a great pvp spec. Ive run it on my vanguard quite a bit (although i always stray back to full pyro). The synergy between flame barrage, charged gauntlets, and particle accelerator is awesome. I used the dot fire stance and the mobility/dps is great. It has a lot less burst than full pyro but its really hard to run out of ammo and you can keep constant pressure on people. the -2s cd on quell is also real, real good.

Fashooba Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Kinda seems like a waste to go that deep into AP and not use hegc and passive heat venting but if you're details in icg definately use a shield generator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pokupo Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 I would almost suggest to take a point out of Proto-Type Flamethrower and Charged Gauntlets and put them into Sweltering Heat allowing you to KITE more effectively melee classes? (0/21/20) Or possibly Rail Loaders for more Rail Shot Pew Pew. (2/21/18) Also I noticed when I was running Kolto Vents in one of my builds it never seemed to do anything for me even when I had Prototype Cylinder Ventalation along with High Energy Gas Cylinder active. If you were planning on using Guard more often then I would take the Endurance Buff over Bursting Flame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pwnyride Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 IMO this would be the optimal build http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#3010zZrsMrobckZfhMbdh.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slamwich Posted January 27, 2012 Author Share Posted January 27, 2012 Thank for the replies. First off, I'd prefer to run with IGC; I only picked up the first tier pyro talent for a boost in pve. Second, Kolto Vents only works when you use the ability Vent Heat, so it's pretty horrible. I'd rather have fun with the flamethrower on stunned targets/pve. So, a few mentioned they've ran something similar. How does it compare to C. Parakeet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slamwich Posted January 28, 2012 Author Share Posted January 28, 2012 Hey Slamwich. Off topic: I just remembered where your name came from. http://www.myvideo.be/watch/4193413 What...the....hell, nope. I came up with it years ago, thinking I was super clever and hilarious. It's been my online game name for pretty much everything since. Then I saw this: http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41nV3Lnh5HL._SL500_AA300_.jpg ...oh well.
