What build to go for pvp?

I been theorycrafting alot lately, and I want something that can be overall good, not like RF, but can beat everyone if your good enough, what build is that?

any build that you can rmt

Ya lol... The sky is the limit with RMT. :p

Seriously though, there's probably a few builds in contention.

Flicker crit dagger
2h sword build (Puncture, heavy strike, cyclone and flicker I guess)
EK low life crit (tempest, molten, etc...)
EA
Bow puncture

1h sword and shield... not sure how it compares to 2h sword now. I've been a little out of the loop lately. Been doing more lld's.

I'm sure I've probably missed a few there.

A lot of the difference relies on the quality of gear one has and how well they've structured their tree. Skill also makes a huge difference... I don't care what some people say.

Correct timing of curses, traps, destroying traps, minions as crowd control/trap sweepers, pots, movement skills, kiting, end charges and immortal call, conversion traps as defense... using the map layouts to your advantage... know what auras to use and when, etc....

You're not just blindly hacking away at one another like some people like to think. :)

wouldnt all thoose builds be raped by a glasstype ranger?

You won't be able to deal enough damage with those skills

I have yet to really see a good split arrow/frenzy build in merc pvp.

fireball and detonate dead mine build.

needs a 20 quality fireball and a 5link to operate.

i'm still using a pile of "junk" except for my chest.
not a single other piece is worth more than around an exalt.

the hardest and most expensive / time consuming part is to get levels and quality on most of the gems.

build is good against anything that tries to bullrush you and also very good in the long battle.

it only really struggles against constant pressure builds like puncture bow but even that matchup isnt lost completely.

so far i only met 1 person that i couldnt beat. DisEdr with 15k or more es is the limit for my gear :D

Sure, there your oneshots doesnt work.
Please GGG, nerf all these oneshot things like high crit, traps, mines, this is no Counter Strike. Also we dont need more totaly unblockable crap like Detonate Dead, EA, RF etc.
Thanks.
