I haven't done areanas since Lightning Strikes was released and was curious how controllers were geared now. Back then I wore full Avatar Bomb dps gear and spec'd into vit. The reason being was to burn healers faster and there really wasn't much loss in p0t doing it that way. Now with vit being able to get so high is there an advantage to having a high vit troll in group. I would test it myself but all my old characters are long ago deleted and am just starting to get into pvp again. With mods I can imagine a few different builds I could go with but right now I can't afford to make the wrong choice. It seems like a huge grind to get these marks when limited to legends and using t1 won't give me results if I am costantly ko'd. Also want to add I hate hate hate the state of Legends and am dreading the horror of areanas. But I need those feats.
I would also like to know as well. I love the arenas as a controller, not so much as a healer nowadays. I was told by a few controllers to just wear dps gear but be in controller stance. Some more constructive and knowledgeable input would help
The reasoning behind dps gear in troll stance was that a high pot doesn't mean anything if you can't burn a healer quickly by yourself. And it sounds like that still seems to be the case. Even when you focus fire and have tons of power it is hard to take anyone out with a healer flying around spamming heals.
