You can't be wood/wood.....you can't be the same element twice.

It really depends on your playing style.

Some have been surprised at how strong a priest can be with force shock and fan dance at taking out others.

A lot of people like fire and metal palys but scrolls are hard and expensive to come by.  Don't be surprised if your lvl 80 with lvl 2 and 3 skills.  Other elements/classes don't that problem so much.

Personally I think water palys and sins are over looked and the plus is the scrolls tend to be better priced.

But really it is learning about how to use the strengths and weakness of your char to  your advantage.  

Some threads to read about it:

fire paladin has the highest attack rate. It is rather hard to say which element is the best. for they brach out different edges in PVP.

does fire paladin cat ...
Any paladin could use corpse walk (which is a common paly skill) to catch people.  Fire palys don't have any stuns and keep in mind that scrolls are going to be hard to pay for and find ingame as a fire paly.  Water palys are strong against Fire since Fire is put out by water.  Going against the grain of a popular element can be an advantage in this game.

There is more user content as you level so not too much boredom.  If you don't like grinding then TQ when you can, then craft and earn magic points.

I don't understand your first question.  Wood gives you a lot of health and then higher health regen bonus.  The minor element compliments the major element but the bonus is not as strong as the major.  So going Wood/Earth means tons of health and a fair amount of defense.  Going Earth/Wood would mean tons of defense and a fair amount of health.

Some things come down to skill in pvp, this game isn't a good button smash game.  If you're lousy at timing attacks and picking spells to counter attack other spells, then you're going to do poorly at pvp.  So it is about choosing a char combo to best reflect your playing style.  If you like fast attacking and stronger hits Fire/Metals or Metal/Fires are popular combos.  If you want to stay alive longer, Earth and Health are good combs or mixing Metal/Earth or Wood/Fire gives you some more surviving power with a increase in attack or speed.

Hope that helps!

after doing some reading it looks like water assassins are nearly unbeatable in pvp.

they keep melee attackers at a serious distance and have enough mp to lay hard hitting skills against mages. seems like this is the best choice for all around pvp / sinister pking

any drawbacks to this build?

and does anyone have any images of progressional armor looks? cant decide between male or female.

right... royal they suck without metal minor... they can hold their own if they get the stun... but not even close to unbeatable

what are the greater adversaries to such a build then?

it doesnt seem like paladins can do much to stop this type of assassin that can knockback stun and freeze.

only mages maybe?

almost everyone...

err melee atkers at a distance for a few sec... not very long... an water sin there isnt such thing as a hard hitting skill...not even against mages.... sin kill wiz easier then other classes dun do more dmg. an most PvP is Pally and Wizards in PDO anyway not many sins.

only thing that would annoy a palading thats fighting a water sin is dragon tail but that doesnt last long, an water sins cant do dmg for [***] so thats why they have problems killing ppl, they can hold their own but they dont do enough dmg to kill... not to mention their last skill is bugged it only rly has 1 lvl.. sorta blows. woulda been cool to have full lvls of rainfall that actually workd...

as for the freeze pally have 2 skills that can unfreeze them(fire of courage an their lvl 10 elemental skill) so its not that much of a big deal. dragon tail is the coolest n best thing bout a water sin.

all assassins have a knockback...

royal made it sound like water sins are all that -_- (hey royal Foxie sux!!! )
