i havnt got stamina in my build - but you will need an End reduct in each of the toggles and 1 in each of the powers to make it viable in my experience.

how would you cope with a team of invisible Villains / Heros?

how do you cope with a controller - Breakfrees ?

if you did have + Perc High enough, you are completely bypassing the stalkers main roll.. he will either try to attack and fail, or will pick an easier target.

please try a stalker in PvP, its harder than you think in SC.
its just there are easy targets and harder targets, if you and your team happen to be the easiest targets, then what do you think the majority of stakers will go for

i try not to attack the same player twice, but sometimes its accidental and others neccessary.

Globla ?

how much cash ?... really sell it to us.. make me want to attend

i have stone on the go atm, its good so far. holds aggro well with mudpots and with an SG mate with Kin corruptor, should be good when he gets speed boost

do you need to be in SG mode to get a badge ? is that why its not working

you dont actually lose that much with Energy transfer when unhidden - its about 85-90 at lvl 28 ish

you can easily 1 shot an even level minion with buildup (unslotted for damage)

my normal attack for a group of 3 now is
Buildup
AS LT
ET minion
placate 3rd - wait and AS, normally the only damage i take is from Energy transfer, and thats normally regenerated before the next battle


i have worked in CJ SJ hover(for missions), Fly and stealth for PvP (all before lvl 24)
all the secondaries except caltrops, all the primaries except stun and barrage

good luck with it, you'll enjoy it. lots of fun

i wouldnt take barrage
i'd get buildup sooner if you want to go BB alot
i'd take Energy Transfer instead of barrage before lvl 30 so you have a good attack for Sirens

Kuji-In Rin - i'd put in 3 recharges instead

they will stop once you out level the pvp zone
i can no longer get the temp hyper Stealth

and it seems that you have a time limit before you can get the power again, even if you have used the temp power

he varies in size if i remember correctly.

what about Increase Density ? has anyone tried it ?

I need flurry so I can get my travel power and flurry is quite good at lower levels, if you look at the build you can see I take very few attack powers (6 in all) If I was making a scrapper I would have taken alot more.

[/ QUOTE ]

Flurry is bad imo, i'd ather have hasten 1 slotted and click i when i need the extra boost

i have 6 attacks on my scrapper.
i find 4 attacks on my stalker enough to be good, i will get my lvl 32 attack, just for more damage to finish off +3 bosses , but i hardly use 2 low level attacks anyway

edit:
ahh and to answer the question, i'd say 100% yes you need it

you want to get placate at 12, might be a good idea to get placate at 12 and buildup at 16, Air Sup at 10.

i have a 28 EM / Nin

I havnt gone the Stamina route, just put more End Reducs in powers
Energy Transfer is needed def

ranged def is important i would get that asap, as this i think helps with the AoE defense + you get hit less and can get back into hide easier

just got smoke flash, and its quite good, helps you escape sticky situations, and can be used to get back into hide without the aggro if there are lots shooting at you

i have skipped caltrops also

Bloody Bay 25
Sirens Call 30
Warburg 38

my slotting will be
2 acc as its got a higher acc anyway
3 damage
and 1 end reduc, as its annoying to use lots of endurance if its interupted (this is because i have gone the non stamina route)

i have been trying to work out when it does that and when not
so far if you placate the 2nd one and run behind out of sight and round a corner it seems to be ok, if they are facing your direction when you run and hide behind an object, they sometimes run at you.

i will keep testing scenarios

50% now to hit in pvp, so it should work better now than in S4

i dont think you can perma dull pain, or anything anymore..

sort of, as you dont become unhidden from falling damage, so it makes sense.

but its not consistent, sometimes they continue attacking after i get hit and placate, other times they ignore me, and im def not hidden

there seems to be a level of transparency when you placate and not get hit.

also testing tonight, if you have 2 enemies, AS 1, placate and hide round a corner, sometime after placate wears off, the enemy will suddenly run at you, other times you are ignored and safe to move in and AS again.

other instances of agro bugs are...
if i successfuly kill a wandering enemy, but dont alert the rest of the group, i go back into hide and an round a corner, if someone else aggros the group, they all come running at me around a corner, whether thats a bug or not, i dont think thats right either

must be a bug then, as i just checked now, def had a positive value, after zoning its back at 0

i dont mind that too much, its people that tp you into a phone box that i think is unfair, as your camera zooms right in and you can be stuck and do little about it

the enemy is succesfully placated, i am not hidden, so why has the enemy wandered off then and ignored me?

if i am not hidden, they why is the enemy ignoring me ? bug

is there still a bug that resets your reputation, as im still at 0, i was higher than that.
or is reputation only valid for each login ?
