Surviving PVP

[Spaylaywitheepee]

I'd like to see some discussion on what it takes to be a good player that can survive in PVP and instead of running to survive, fight back. Say I've got a toon with 100 swords, magery, EI, Anatomy, and Resist(I know it would be better to have 120, but lets start here). What do I need to be competitive or at least survive more than 2 or 3 hits when the red comes running at me? 70 physical resist? 70 fire resist? A good 1h swords weap that does 25-30 damage with +45% to damage every 2 secs? A 100% reflect physical damage outfit?

Dont waiste your time, there arnt any reds left and no one will kill you...you wanna "adapt" like everyone else...hide/stealth/ninja/smoke bomb....end of story.....you will never be seen and will never die, but theres no one to kill you anyway...siege is the ultimate carebear shard now...unless your planing on getn pked by a red crafter out there mining ore......LOL

although I agree with Fudd, here is a few things...

wear decent armour, easy with imbuing...if possible fit 50 enhance potions in your template

one quick button and you cured and can heal 20-35 points.

dont panic, be calm and remember to just heal, most people who die to pkers never even try to heal, they just freeze up and die.

the first few times you might still die, but after a while you will live longer and longer, maybe even get away a few times

join a guild and actually spare with people, it helps tons.

remember the uo is item based now, that means everything for your char (Power scrolls)
Armour ( arties) Weapons ( bok imbued with 50 HL, 50 HLA, 50 HLD, 5 HCI, 20 SSI, 20 di)

even pets, a fully trained DM is alot harded to live against then an untrained one.

the real rub is that the best advice I have seen given on these boards is dont wear what you cant afford to lose, most pvpers/pkers are very rich!

be well and good luck on siege!

This.

Also dont be scared of test center. The level of competition is so much higher you get to where you can compete there and siege will look like preschool.
