just need to know if the stun length or if stun from mind blast at all works pvp or if the mind blast is used just for the slight knockback effect. Is it worth it to put all of the remaning points into MB either way for my Lightning trapper or should i put them elsewhere like in fireblast so i can at least have something against absorbers. and a side note question, can anyone give me a rough estimate on how much dmg a lvl 30 fire blast will deal with all of the lightning trapper skills as synergies (LS, DS, CBS, SW)?

Mind Blast is essential for trappers as it stuns your opponent and sends them into hit recovery every time a trap hits them.

However there are people that say you should only invest 1 point in it and let your +skills increase it, and there are those that say you should max it. I'll let you know what I think when I rebuild my trapper :)

Claw block is a good option for extra points if you're going double claw, but otherwise go with mind blast. Burst of speed is a fun option, as you will run faster and lay traps faster. Do not go for fade though, because you'll just get hit more because you're slow. I wouldn't bother with that fire blast thingy, you can get other party members to kill immune monsters for you. Fire blast is also not going to be any good for PvP, and for PvM it's kinda a slow killer.

I suggest to put everything to dragon talon and 1 pt to dragon flight, it's very helpfull sometimes ppl don't think that trapsin could pursue him, and dragontalon suprises often, just df put traps and mb them, I think every assasin need at least 1 pt in df

it's very easy to reach good kick dmg just equip tg + ss -15/rez jewel and then only some str is needed for shadow dancers (fhr,dex,+2shadow skills)

yes the stun length does apply in pvp

The stun length in pvp is trhe same regardless of mindblast level. The swirly duration increases with points invested. When you are hit by any attack with a swirly over your head, you will go into hit recovery animation regardless of the amount of damage. This is why many people max mb. It also does pretty nice damage at high levels.
