Guys, we really need to do something about the whole death thing. I say, we either all get maneuvers and hope for the best, or rads get fallout and rez and a few people get vengeance so we can play on it

I think manoeuvers is the way forward as we have no ff/ def. We are talking 43% Def(All) and the amount of -tohit debuffs we are throwing around will really decrease our 'death downtime' :P

Endurance wont be an issue with 2x AM and 2 x SB. Those fully slotted for end mod gives an extra recovery of 320% to each member. Plus AM will be perma

Mace, you need to combine gimped with gimped.

Yeah you should concentrate on +recharge bonuses to get elude down to as small a downtime as possible. So Hasten is essential for /SR PvP

Already /SR has the help of perma +20% recharge, add a few 5 slotted Red Fortune powers in the mix and its fairy easy and cheap to get perma +45% recharge and +115% recharge when hasten is up.

Hope this helps

I've always felt the exclusive one-handed use of BS adds to the sense of epicness, the whole "I don't care if this massive lump of steel weight almost as much as I do, I'm hardcore enough to wield it in one-hand"

Feel the PowaH!

Where do you all actually meet ingame? I would like to bring PsiAtom along for the ride

We used to play with 7, due French kiss having computer issues, wich seem to be resolved now But you can always join up, i gues its not possible to get everyone online at the same moment.

Tried a similar ST thing with fire/rad corrs. Really helps to have more than 8 interested to guarantee 8 man teaming

Well i realised i still have my lvl 18 Dark/Dark so may just respec him (with leadership). He is called Night Jackal Hopefully thats cool

I am kind of late in discovering this but is there any room left?

I'm thinking of a few combinations (Dark/ Rad/ or Storm/ ) and could easily get him to a reasonable lvl for the next meet

Scream not only has -rech... but a hugeload -rech!!!! The mere fact of doubting among those two powers for pvp is laughable (no offense)

[/ QUOTE ]

ANd you dont need any of them for pvp, unless you're destroying a mm

[/ QUOTE ]

Regen scrapper? or anything that relies on clicks for survivability? -Rechar destroys them

I find that sticking toggles on a lieutenant at the back of the pack lasts longest. People generally wipe out the minions with AoE and the scrappers go straight for the bosses as they are the greatest threat. The lieuts near the back are often the last to drop, even in disorganised PuGs.

But yeah somtimes when it all goes horribly pear shaped you are just too busy to blast. I didn't really mean that, I meant the ones that stand around occasionally passing out buffs if you beg for them and complement them on their shoulder kittens.

However, I think a lot of the time it's down to people just not knowing the stats on things, which is partly the game's fault for having such vague power descriptions. Some of the secondary effects are really fantastic. I boggle at the emp/psi's that don't have psychic scream. "Hello? It's a 62.5% AoE recharge speed debuff for 10 seconds! and it's aoe damage! It's probably doing more damage mitigation than half the empathy buffs. That's more than Snow Storm, more than Freezing Rain, a little less than Lingering Radiation and over three times as much as Glue Arrow! Slot it up and spam that mother. You will need to heal less, which means you can blast more and everyone is happy!"

Psy Scream is actually a cone but that still means its one of the best /psy powers

EM with /Regen or /SR or /Nin for easy times

Personally I enjoy Spines for a bit of a challenge and has some nice tools; ranged attack, DoT to make stalkers visible that much longer, slows and rarely resisted damage

Aye as I said people can and have improved on it. But there becomes a stage that adding that extra 5% recharge will be too heavy on the wallet to justify its effect for most people

What rubbish.

Kent i would go EM/SR = winning combo

with IOs ita alot less end intensive than it used to be plus you get the best defence with the best burst damage.

Currently thanks to set bonuses and quickness I have +45% Passive recharge and +115% recharge when hasten is up at warburg lvl. This means elude is only down for 160 seconds for me and up 180 seconds

I know people have even improved on that so things can only get better

Seems like you know you role well

zomg nerf EM



no seriously :P

nerf EM stalkers zomg!

Just noticed this thread.

Congrats to our EVIL doers and to Max our glorious leader!! *bows*

Surely being truly undetectable is and should be the point of being a Stalker. It doesnt make stalkers overpowered in PvP just evens them up with everyone else

Its called phase shift, just pop BU and queue AS a few seconds into the phase shift period and you will hit them as soon as they come out of it. My spines love carnies thanks to their low resistance to lethal and toxic

I dont think many people realise this but Quick Recovery has a base end recovery of 30% whilst stamina starts at 25%.

This means fully slotted QR is giving you 59% end rec whilst stamina is only giving 49%.

Stamina is defiantly not really needed now if you are a /regen as QR is better, saves 2 powers and there are so many +recovery bonuses now

Personally I think aid self on a /EA /SR Stalker is pretty much critical at a high lvl

I say leave the leadership pools to corrs and MMs as they have better percentages. Oh and try running an /SR with leadership toggles. That would be taxing

Dark would be my team choice with /regen or /EA ( best tier 9 power)

Siphon speed is just under the unslotted SS speed. So you wont notice much difference with both on

True you have to break hide but atleast you can begin to attack at the stealth cap with +stealth IOs. You cant do that with invis

AoEs like bonfire can reveal you aswell
