    It is possible they want that to stay a team ability, so lowering the recharge in liquefy would transform the set not just solo wise, but also team wise.

    So?

    Energy has out of stealth attacks that are assassin level like attacks and dark melee is self explanatory.

    That leaves MA, which isn't hot regardless of archtype. :P Edit: In fairness MA for scrappers is more AoE oriented, but still is a set that could be jazzed up.
  3. Disruption field is a massive end hog. It needs more jazz for it to be sucking so much end, or reduce its end usage.

    Sonic Siphon - I like the idea of making it a true siphon.

    Liquefy - Lower the duration or increase its debuff values.

That is not something you can just brush away when talking about the AT as a whole.
    How are those 3 of 8 power sets gimped for stalkers?
  5. Thank you for thread because I recently noticed this as well.
  6. Stalkers really shine in a team setting as they are able to lock down pesky single targets. Understandable if a team is blasting away with AoEs that they wouldn't be appreciated so much. :P

    Also: The way Ablating Strike is coded as a pseudo-PBAoE, it always checks when the power is used even if the sweep combo isn't triggered. This means, if you slot any procs in this power (such as an Achilles' heel -res proc), it not only has a chance to proc on the target but any target in possible range for the sweep combo every time you use Ablating.
    Cool.

    I am going to go level my DB stalker now!
  8. I just started dual blades and the sweep combo is already epic fun (assuming you avoid the retaliatory alpha). :P
  9. I just started a Dual Blades/Energy armor stalker. I will let you know who else plays it along the way.
  10. I am glad the Wall Street Journal, and other major media outlets are picking up the story. It is a seriously bad precedent for the gaming industry if this goes through.

    Edit: Yeah I am not interested in Susan calling me about gold during dinner time.
  11. From my point of view the current realID currently has loopholes in it to show your full real name currently due to addons as discussed on wow.com. Anyways they have slowly moved insidiously to push realID to the point where it is no longer an option.

    Most times if you need technical support you are directed to the forums if you call their offices. So yeah...this isn't really optional....

    Thank you for the prompt response!
  13. Help please! Will it be necessary to have a full real life name displayed as a handle to post on these forums in the future?

    Thanks in advance for any responses.

    I recently rolled one on Liberty and it is so much fun. Archery is end friendly along with the fast attacks you reach scourge range a lot faster efficiently and effectively.

    Traps compliments the ranged style that Archery is about. Traps doesn't have to be about toe bombing.

    I second that recommendation.

    Traps > Devices.
  17. Thank you for your quick response.
  18. It looks funny, but what is up with snap shot animation? Any ETA on a fix for it? o.O
  19. Snap shot is bugged, but funny.

    Overall this issue is fantastic.
  20. When I try to log in it says they need to test the new publish whatever that means.

    o.O

    Agreed.
  23. You have to determine what you want to focus on with the DB side because with SR you will have a very tight build.

    Vengeful strike may not be the best bang for the buck in terms of DPA, but its ability to knock up a target offers huge help for squishy stalker. That is why I am also a big fan of sweep.
  24. This will be a welcomed change for my DB/ELA stalker.
