    Just curious where all the action is at? Ladder, Non-Ladder, Softcore, Hardcore. Mostly curious where you guys do your PvP duels and tournaments the most?
    I'm currently playing ladder softcore.

    SC Ladder is the most active. Usually there are public games called "DUELZ" where you can pvp other players.

    I've seen them every once in a while. I can't wait to get my first PvP character built, so I can get in there.

    Most people here play pvp on sc, its popular since pvp on hc is non existent ( Besides ironman pvp and some other tournaments). Non ladder is pretty dead aswell so sc ladder is where the action is.

    Organized pvp tournaments are usually done in HC, regular duels in SC for obvious reasons. More experienced players may do private duels and bet runes.
    Not everyone likes PvP though and PvM can be as exciting too.

    Yeah I've always preferred PvM, due to not being very good at PvP, and I've found that in the old blizz servers there was always a bad manner player bullying everyone. I doubt this is the case on this server, since everyone is so cool here. I've never played on hardcore before.

    @Gix @Escorb4r @Botlike Do you guys have a favorite kind of PvP character that you play the most? What kind is it?

    @Brence, that's normal because the PVM ration has always been bigger in this game and although everyone is so cool in this community keep in mind that no one likes losing so you will inevitably encounter toxicity and drama in some moments because those will always be part of PVP but rest assured it's nothing like on the old blizz servers. Playing on hardcore is really exciting and fun but you have to be that type of guy ready to cope with a permanent death situation which sometime may even not be your fault. Consider HC as some exclusive club where only the strongest survive.

    If I was playing SC and wanted to duel would either go for WW Barb with sufficient FCR or Hybrid Trapsin with Chaos & Fury for the amazing whirlwind.

    I've had a lot of barbs. My last was a WW axe barb. I've found some good barb gear lately. Maybe I'll make a BvC barb. Been wanting to try a sword barb too.

    Grandfather being modified here gives you quite some options to build one.

    I love doing this quest called HOLY GRAIL finding all uniques+sets+runes in same ladder.
    I have 1 last item left on my grail list before i become Holy grailer that is tyraels might(unique sacred armor)
    I used to do PVP and pvm with a hammerdin though.
    I still have my pitzerker barb sorcerers and necro on softcore.
    I love this quest honestly.

    If you are good in teleporting, I would suggest Vita Cold Sorc, Windy Druid
    If you good with distance shooting characters : Bone Necromancer, Bow/Java Hybrid,
    If you want mele character : go for smite/fist hybrid Paladin
    My favourite and main PvP characters are Trapssin,Windy,BoneNecro,EsLightSorc,Bow/Java
    If you need any advice thats my acc : lequersm or edvilton

    I watched that one vid that you posted up about the "holy grail" seems like a lot of farming.
    I hope that you find it man!

    I use to have a bone necro too. Very fun character to play. I had a wind druid once upon a time, but I couldn't get the hang of it.
