Because Stalkers need loving like everything does.

Okay seriously, if you aren't playing a Stalker, watch your back. In fact, if you're playing a Stalker, you need to watch your back. Okay, fine. Just watch your back period.


XD

In short, where all the Stalkers at?

Come out, come out wherever you -DEAD-

So yeah, here are some spoilers regarding Stalkers. They are almost like Scrappers only they Crit when they are in hide. Hide has now been intergrated into every Scrapper Secondary to accomodate this new ability. However, this means that one power out of each Secondary has been completely removed. I don't know what rammifications this could have to defense or resitence but it sure will be interesting.

Also, two new sets are Ninja Blade*(Similiar to regular katana) AND Ninjitsu. An interesting new powerset.

What I'm really loving are the Assassin Strikes. The damage is mind blowing. Plus the animation is just sick, well at least the Ninja Blade one, as that's the only one I've tried.

Of course a Invisibility power at lvl 1 ain't bad either. :)

[Impact]

The assassin strike for ninja blade owns you. :cool: I'm really loving ninjitsu and even though at first I was a bit wary of it because it seemed like SR, it seems a lot more fun, but then again i'm only level 12. Oh and placate rocks too :D can you say double crit? I've been trying to figure out where I'm going to fit stamina & a travel power into my build but it's looking like it may be in the twenties....

I'd be interested in knowing what was dropped from SR for Hide, or if the Powers in the Set were completely redesigned.

Wouldn't it make sense for all the Stalkers to be in hiding, though? I wouldn't expect a response. :D

[Pseudodonn8]

Every prexisting set has been altered with Hide added to the mix for Stalker Secondarys. You cannot not take Hide, as it is the first power available. I believe the AOE passive was traded out. XD Which is interesting considering how big and important AOE is for SR +35ish

I don't know what else was traded for Regen and Invunerablitiy or Dark Armor. (But IMO those were better balanced IN COMPARISON) So losing a power in SR is like getting shot in the foot ...then choping off the whole leg, only the wrong one.

Heres the twist tho' Stalkers are not Scrappers... and the set is more modified than it appears. Don't ask me how, tho'... I'm 56k and I'm still downloading the game since the last patch. XD

I did get to play, hence the inside info... but chances are, there are some blokes here who could spill the beans far better than I can. Fellas?

[Esbat]

So who's giving the loving to the stalkers?

I'm a very good stalker, my prey never see me coming...

err

Wait this is about the CoV stalker AT, d'oh

[Akamaz]

Hide can be defence slotted (which mine is) which is nice, it's a little bit less of a chance my regen scrapper will get nailed.

[Graphite]

Wait...
So this isn't a thread to b1tch and moan about Stalkers?
Ah well. And for the record, I will not be playing a Stalker until they Balance AS.

[ChairLegOfTruth]

Balance Ass?

I'm sorry you've lost me...
