/elec has res to slows [img]/uk/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
also has res to end drain [img]/uk/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
also has one of the highest res to toxic [img]/uk/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
it also has a jolly nice end drain itself [img]/uk/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

You can't stop us [img]/uk/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

i bet its all the ppl who play heroes the most who are saying stealth isn't needed lol [img]/uk/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Anyway .. i'd seriously drop fast healing till much later on and try and get a good attack chain in sooner.

MoG is a death sentence in PvP and revive is pretty much worthless outside of PVE,nothing an awake can't do.
TF really needs fully slotting and ET really needs to be 2 acc 3 dmg 1 end reduxs or you'll find yourself with no end.

GET DULL PAIN.

Instant heal dosn't need 3 heals as with just 3 recharge its heal rate is 800% with 3 heals its something like 950% so theres 3 spare slots.

1 end reduxs on hide is all you need.
2 max on intergration.

I'd take invis to.

I've played with both flash smoke and blinding powder and thought the were to situational for my likeing and with /nin being so tight desided on other options.
For PVE they would both have there merits.

yep because it is true .. the only way a stalker can go toe to toe with say a scrapper is with the lvl 38 power or divine avalanche as standard defence powers are not high enough.

if you want a stalker powerset that can stand and fight i'd roll another Brute coz you've rolled the wrong AT for that lol
Stalkers don't have the HP or Defence to do it for long periods.
nothing wrong with nrg/regen for both pve and pvp tho but i'd probably get tough from the fighting pool for more damage mitagation and pretty much take all the secondry powers sept for mog and revive.

4. 3 acc 2 damage 1 recharge* or 1 end red in AS

acro for PVP grounded for PVE.
I see alot of wasted slot and one end hungry build
2 slot shields with end reduxs
1 slot all attacks with 1 end redux except TF which needs 2.

drop the extra slots in,lighting reflexes,swift,hurdle,hasten.

No need for airsup and fly take cj,sj,acro if its for PVP

But seriously regens good what with PVP the way it is atm 30% defence dosn't mean a thing when most of the heroes are 2 slotted with acc and running FA and tactics.
I think its time to look at other builds.

but PvP is pretty grossly imbalance in favour of heroes anyway.. tried PvP with my stalker and really didn't like it much.
Heroes epic powers way outclass the PPP and the sheer volume of heroes vs fewer villains makes pvp a pretty dull experience anyway. Maybe 1 on 1 a regen stalker would have fun but this never happens... its always 3 or 4 on 1 and you'll get too much damage too fast to be able to compete. Put that together with the fact that regen heroes get stamina boost and stalkers don't pretty much guaranteeing they'll win in the long run.

Yeah but your talking solo stalkers, most of the heroes like to run in little gank squads of 4-5 especialy the spine scrappers so solo stalkers don't have much of a chance unless your really quick on your feet.
Regen is good against spineys tho but i'd suggest joining or making a team in pvp zones if your playing a stalker.

But back OT i suggest the OP goes either ninjitsu or SR with ninjablade as those sets go well together.

your probably the regen stalker i've seen running around without dullpain and instant heal lol j/k

As the saying in our SG goes 'more end means you can stay in combat longer .. the longer your in combat for the more fury you build..the more fury you build the less end you use the more dmg you do'.

don't count out jab as its a fast charging good fury building attack.
2 acc 1 end reduxs is what i had right up till lvl 20 when i had spare slots.
If your going to use that build in PVP i'd gladly meet you in warburg and beat the snot outa ya as it will be an end heavy ..piece of work lol and you'll struggle to hit anything and build fury.

i took aidself instead of the passive res's and have never looked back .. its good in pvp to

Yeah, of course with power surge your shield is not weak but without...

I'm not sure about the statistics you found on the COH/COV builder i suppose, it seems to me that my stone brute (95% Res) has more res than my elec brute with powersurge (only one slot res because I'm 38). But it's hard to compare not the same regen not the same level and often not the same mobs :-).

[/ QUOTE ]

3 slotted powersurge is
82% lethal
82% smashing
82% cold
177% energy
82% fire
153% neg energy
82% toxic

And before anyone says 'why waste 3 slots ?' its for the 82% toxic res.
And this might i add is before the other shields are added in so its well over the brute 90% cap with psi res thrown in which is more than granite.

depends what power sets you have but FotM is Black Scorpian

yep i've got a DM/DA i've also tried spines/DA during the RV event awhile back both will pretty much rip up in PVP.
Altho end heavy DA can be managed with heavy end reduc slotting in shields and attacks and if taking stealth i'd double slot that to.

heh funny i was playing with the charactor builder yesterday and made a dom with 160 DPS in 25 seconds which would out dmg most brutes without full fury.

2 slotting all shieilds with end reds
slotting all attacks with 2 acc 1 end red EXCEPT for haymaker and knockout blow which both need 2 end reds.
Lighting field is cack don't take it.
Fly and grounded DOES NOT WORK .. i don't care what you think its just dosn't not work...take SJ instead and maybe acro.
Take hasten because double stacked rage = 160% extra dmg .. you do the math.
You do not need to suppliment attacks with pool attacks .. jab,punch,haymaker all cycle nicely and theres enough knock down there.
Take Aidself sooner .. you'll need it.

She

hate to say it guys but your going to be struggling with those builds and you can totaly forget PVP.

i'll tell you what dark/dark has.
The ability to stun ANY AT even tankers in granite with 1 shot.
The ability to heal over 60% of its hit points every 10-20 seconds.
The ability to detoggle regens intergration.
The ability to hold nearly any AT.
Resists which in PVP are better than defence what with all the tactics and FA floating about.

And if you can't see those you need to look REAL hard.

you can get a charactor builder HERE

This build is meant to be about PVP.

To the OP: the fact that you're a flying brute means you won't whoop anything, since they can all get away. In fact, you'll have REAL problems versus fliers, considering the fact that if you try to follow them you'll lose mez protection, and be slaughtered.

Take aid self, unless you were joking about PVP. Self heals are pretty much necessary.

[/ QUOTE ]

Ok your points are valid but not wholly correct: -

Grounded is Immob and KB protection, ELA brutes rely on Static Shield for their main mez protection. You know what happens when you get KB while flying… you spin.

You ask how the OP is going to catch and kill anyone with fly alone? I have done this against all kinds of heroes. Once Air Superiority connects guess where that flyer is going…. the ground. I use an Energy/ELA brute and with the Stuns that all of my attacks contain there is a high chance that with any of my hits that flyer will be on the ground.

[/ QUOTE ]

so hes gonna get immobed in the air or dropped like a rock.

oh and once you 2 slot stealth with end reduxs and your sheilds with 2 and attacks with 1, ends not a problem.

The problem with grant invis is its a one shot deal .. meaning once you apply it that person can only attack once then needs a reapply of grant invis to get the stealth bonus again.
might aswell go with invis tbh.
And yes its been said by the devs i just can't be bothered to find it lol

grounded and fly don't play well together
you might want to get aid self to.
