<description>Duelist is only good for dueling (duh)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Work off defenses.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Figure it out from there.&lt;br /&gt;</description>

So basically, now that defense has finally been fixed in CR2.0 or should I say CR2.5, you&amp;#39;re going to want to have a high defense orientation with whoever you&amp;#39;re going to be fighting. Of course, you can&amp;#39;t be powerful against everything, and really trying to boost defense in everything besides maybe the Troll&amp;#39;s Hide + Quicksilver&amp;#39;s, you&amp;#39;re going to screw yourself over. What RemagDiv about dueling isn&amp;#39;t really just sarcasm either. You can get quite a high defense rating if you&amp;#39;re only fighting one person and you know their load just by&amp;nbsp;changing clothes to counter them. Try to have all 4 hypers loaded in a PvP situation so you can switch quickly inbetween what you&amp;#39;re fighting. Resistance is always nice, but remeber in this game you&amp;#39;re supposed to lose in a 2v1, so don&amp;#39;t get discouraged.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;As for some clothing choices, I&amp;#39;d go with the following.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Quicksilver Gloves are a must. %6+ to all defenses and I think 22 resistance in everything. It&amp;#39;s probably one of the best clothing items in the game except for something like an Assassin&amp;#39;s mask, and it even looks hella cool too. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Troll&amp;#39;s Hide is basically the shirt version of Quicksilvers. Instead of %6+ it&amp;#39;s %3+ and the resistances should be the same now that it got a better upgrade.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;For fighting against Guns-&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you&amp;#39;re a duelist, you&amp;#39;re going to want an Area K. +3% Defense from ballistic and max resistance with some health regen, not a bad coat. Not that good for a pvp situation due to a lack of a third resistance, but if you&amp;#39;re having a bad time with snipers, go ahead. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Although it isn&amp;#39;t the greatest in resistance, Squad Leader&amp;#39;s gives you a decent defense and accuracy bonus as well as some ballistic resistance.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Coward&amp;#39;s pants is pretty much the same class as the Squad Leader&amp;#39;s, for Guns fighting other Guns.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Seraphim&amp;#39;s are also another must, gotten from the PB4. Godly stats for a pair of shoes, and well worth getting. If you want to chase someone down, you need these, unless you know that running diagonally drastically increases your running speed. ~_~&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You might want IS gear for your head, but that&amp;#39;s just me. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;For fighting against MA-&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The nemesis archetypes means you have a basic advantage over any pure-load Martial artists. Your MA defense should be oodlesly high against them, so you&amp;#39;ll be in luck. Once again, defense clothing.. probably gear against MA, but since you have the nemesis advantage, you may not need to worry so much. Depends on who&amp;#39;re you fighting and what they know.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;For Fighting against Thrown-&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Here&amp;#39;s a tip of advice, don&amp;#39;t. MKT is not only in my mind an overpowered class, but Thrown is geared against kicking the *poop* out of guns. You might have a bunch of defense, but MKT destroys you with its accuracy. Unless you&amp;#39;re fighting someone mentally *CENSORED*, the MKT will win 80% of the time. MKT might have an easier time beating other classes, but the nemesis archetype means you&amp;#39;re going to get screwed regardless because Thrown &amp;gt; Ballistics.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;For Fighting Hackers-&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This is pretty much an even fight. Once again, defense clothing, try to avoid getting debuffed to hell.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;All in all, the nemesis system works like this.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;MKT&amp;gt;Ballistics&amp;gt;MA&amp;gt;Hacker&amp;gt;MKT&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Or at least that&amp;#39;s how it&amp;#39;s &lt;i&gt;supposed to be...&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

I can&amp;#39;t really think of any instance in pvp that required me switching to those. I&amp;#39;m running a sniper/duelist build for pvp and usually go for acc/resist gear. The only time that I ever really needed any extra defense (ballistic) was when me and a couple guys were pvping vs. an EPN gunners zerg. However, I do use the coward&amp;#39;s pants (for the sole purpose that they look better than the Ivora Slacks) in guns vs. guns fights as stated in the posts above.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Your gear should compliment your build. Personally, I look at resistance first then the bonuses associated with that specific piece of gear. QS are a must in pvp, so are seraphims, usually I go with the 2% melee defense pants, the 2% acc shirt, the 2% acc roca with sakura and 2% acc/initiative glasses. This will give me pretty good accuracy and resistance vs. MAs, MKTs and other gunners.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Experiment with your gear/loadout combo and see what works best and when, that way you&amp;#39;ll get a better feel for the tree and tactics to use.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Good luck. &lt;img src=&quot;/mxo/images/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot;SMILEY&amp;lt;img mce_tsrc=&quot; /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</description>
