PvP Java Questions (first one, i'm a noob)

[junglejunkie]

This is my first pvp java -- going straight CS, and trying to hit 12k.

gear:
griffs
maras
20/20 monarch
treks (don't know about this)
bk x 2
tgods
gloves? (no idea)
titans (eth, upped)
coh

torch
anni
java gcs (should i use these or passives?)
20 lifers underneath

questions:
first, is that a good setup? no idea about gloves, and iffy about the boots.

second, provided i get about 35 stat points from a torch+anni, i'm thinking i would need about 42 hard points into str to use this build.. am i missing anything? (42+35 = 77, enough for dusk coh, coh adds 20 = 97, treks add about 13 = 110, tgods adds 20 = 130, titans adds 20 = 150, mara's adds 5 = 155) -- i might get better treks, and if i don't i'll use a 2str charm for the time being.

does that str allocation sound right?

thanks.

To answer the question on the gloves, I think just about every javazon wants +2java/20ias rare gloves with mods...or if your really hardcore about your damage, theres always the +3java/20ias magic gloves.

As for your strength...just level your zon up till your high enough to use all your gear, then just put points into strength as you need them.

That would be a good build and do damage right around the 12k (12bolt) cs your looking for. If you are doing pvp you may want to look into enigma, since it can be a vital tool to tele in pvp. The problem is the javazon cast rate is painfully slow so you might switch to a 35% spirit to help. The other problem with switching from coh to nigma is the drop in resistances, but your goal will be to hit first and not get hit. The monarch shield (either with spirit or 20/-20) will stink on block rate. On occasion, I switch to SS with higher block if I meet up with a meleer with high lite resist/absorb.
As for gloves, look for +2 java with ias and leech mods or +3 java magic.
Boots, if you can afford, get grim spurs (frw/fhr with great str & resist mods), but the cost for them is sky high. If you can't afford eth treks would be a good alternative.
Another word of advice is to get gcs with life & fhr mods. fhr is key since the zon recovery rate without is slow and you can get locked into dodge/block without...then you are toast.
Good luck and maybe I can met you in a pvp game

Gloves ( as said: 20% ias, 2 java), and boots... you can use treks, gore riders (good dmg adding mods), war trav (dmg..), but i guess treks r best cuz of the life and stuff (although faster run should be a big thing!!!). Dont even think of using enigma... CoH is best! you definetly need the resis, and no need for tele... also, if u want to stay alive more often, get an ss, but for damage ur 20/20 sheild is probably gg.

big thing!!!)Dont even think of using enigma... CoH is best! you definetly need the resis, and no need for tele...
nigma is a damn good choice for armor...coh is good if you want resists, but tele is very handy, and you can get away easily with base str...
