PvP in rift

[defactoman]

So has anyone been doing a lot of pvp at the higher levels? I'm curious what kind of teams people are running with success in the warfronts. I've played the inq/warden type build in lower level, but as i read in another thread the healing isnt much to write home about.

I had considered leveling up another team, maybe mixed to maximize buffs and passive healing but thought id stop in here and see what everyone else is seeing.

I dont 5 box in pvp its pretty rough. i do how ever run 3 mages at 50 pvp and it does really well. port sion i help capture a control point then i spread my guys out just a little and help hold the bridge the whole time 3 ele/stormcaller mages rape face aoe and single taget. and when they all pop their 51 point ele skill thats 15fire eles 3 air eles 3 mages dpsing.

I'm currently 4 boxing it, i can't 5 box with my computer and 4 is kinda barley cutting it as it is. 3 mages sounds interesting, ill poke around the talent trees a little. Thanks for the info

Where'd you see that Warden healing isn't good? Warden have the best sustained HPS in the game from everything I've read. Their issue is with burst healing in PvP, which is balanced when you're a boxer, because you can mainain 4-5 stacks of a heal instead of one. 4 stacks of Soothing Stream ticks for the same combined value as a Sentine's Healing Communion. I can see that Warden PvP healing would be hard playing an individual character, but when you multiply a Wardens numbers by 4-5 I think it will more than balance out (and be much more mobile and mana efficient).
