Trapper vs BvC

Or: Part 2 in a series of question about how to use a PvP assassin

So my sin has gone through a large series of upgrades since I've last posted and has 2x as much hp, 2.5x the damage and the 65fcr bp. She's still in a transitory state right now and will be recieving new and better eq as I can afford it.

Equipment is:
Shako (will upgrade to CoA at some unknown later date)
Enigma Mage Plate
+1sin 10fcr 50 life 7str caster craft ammy
2xFcr/Res rings
15/15 Treks
Arachs
2xBartuc's with res/fhr+res jewels socketed :)cloud9: best claws ever for cost/effect ratio 60fhr is love)
Magefists/Trangs
17/19 torch
19/18 anni
CtA/Eth Monarch spirit on switch

All points in vit except for 5 into dex for glitching eq on (math doesn't explain why I need the 5 dex...)
I'm sitting at 3400 life with 11/20/23/25 life skillers
I'm not looking for advice on eq, I know what I should get I just can't afford it right now.

So, my duels have gone well on the whole but I'm fairly stumped on how to beat a BvC. I imagine SS with max block would help immensely but I didn't build it in (I could however, hold a SS easily). I can take a whirl or two with my fair claw block but the main problem is hurting them. A good BvC has 6.5k+ life and can take more then a few hits while I can't. Since he's usualy leaping or WWing it's hard to get a stunlock going and even when I can it's usualy tanked. Using the advice from the previous thread in regards to tele-dodging I can keep the fight on but it's a losing battle.

Thoughts?

You should always have a lock on them except when you are teleing out of their whirl path. After you tele if you don't think you can get a lock on them again before they can tele use psychic hammer to stun them long enough to get mind blast back on them. You should also try to have 1 wake of fire mixed in with your LS at all times. As long as you have constant mind blast and traps hitting they shouldn't be able to tele at all and will have to whirl at you or away from you allowing you to tele wherever you need to be and reset your lock again.

When playing as trapper vs a BvC, If they absorb..I switch onto my infinity, if not I use SS/Hoto (max block build), they arent that hard to beat.. Plant traps in a diamond and try and run circles around that diamond with a few random teleports added to throw him up.

Once he takes the teleport/WW..either run or teleport, while hes in the WW lock and use mindblast..rinse repeat.

I like using infinity just because even with max block, I'll usually be dead in 2 hits, but with infinity you can do massive damage in seconds.

with just 6.5 k life and tgods (no other max res or sorb)
they can take an absurd amount of blasts. this is just one matchup where its very very very hard to win. much like a foh vs windy but not as bad.

Be as evasive as possible. Tele around alot. MB as much as you can but dont hold MB too long: if they're wwing at you, tele away, never tank. Keep telling yourself that you're fragile and play very defensively. If they can't hit you, they can't win.

Hm, if you don't mind me saying, those kinds of trappers which gave my bvc lots of trouble are 08 valks with 2x 2/3/2 gts 102fcr users. I am sorry, barbs are generally faster, and have more life. To win barbs, it is by having a good set of reaction, cuz quick and accurate locks with mindblast is the key here to winning. I generally find those trappers who maxed out mindblast the toughest.

This girl also does my key running and I decided to max out fire blast over mind blast to take care of LIs and nk tards with. On a pure dueling remake or when I get infinity I'll go with mind blast.
