From what I read, energy melee is the worst of the worst and it has nothing going for it. Are there any plans on making it more viable, or has it been left at the wayside to rot? What could be done to make it not hated anymore?

Hey guys, the new patch is coming soon (maybe) and I am sure that I am not the only person wanting to know how st dps will change. I'm not sure how to calculate all this up or I would have done it my self, so has anyone done so yet? Some sort of st dps comparison chart would be great. I looked over the the forum and couldn't find another post, if I missed something, please post a link. Thanks!

These are some interesting numbers. Is there a way to factor in enemy resistances? Most enemies are resistant to smashing/lethal, no? So wouldn't that mean that sets with dual damage types like EM, DM, ELM, and Spines (toxic) would be slightly higher in all actuality?

Hello all! I feel that it is great that the devs decided to revamp energy aura and to port Ice armor over to stalkers. Ninja is great, but that's the only set that people take. It will be nice to see something else running around. Ice armor is going to be great! I'm excited. Also, energy aura is going to be beastly! It finally gets a real self heal!!! My EA stalker is already soft capped to all, and has 35% ranged defense for the psi so the defense buff to energy drain doesn't matter much to me, it will help lowbies though. The -recharge/end drain resistance to the auto power has me exited as well. It's going to be sweet. Anyone have any thoughts?

Hello all! How is everyone doing today? I just wanted to know a decent aoe attack to take on my bane. I noticed you get the choice of an aoe mace blast attack, but it looks rather weak. I do not have room in my build for an epic power pool because I am going to try to fit in aid self for a self heal. My choices are pretty much between venom grenade and grenade. Currently in my build on mids I have venom grenade because it does a - 20% resistance and it doesn't have knockback, YAY! I had a question or two about it though, does it have the potential to crit while hidden, and does it cause me to have to redraw my weapon? Any answers or suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
