  1. People complain far less about getting killed than complaining about people who don't make clean kills. Which is why I always make sure I get my kill in a hotspot - unless I'm severely screwed re: odds against me.

    We'll miss you.

    Along with the 2 or 3 people who actually cancelled their subscriptions.




    Also, jeez. Can you not read? If people don't enjoy the situation, TOUGH. People don't enjoy a lot of other situations. Blappers? Stormies? They're responsible for probably more ganking than we'll ever aspire to, but we aren't griping - most of us, at least. All you're doing is complaining about things making it 'not fun' for you and how they should be focusing everything on making the game more enjoyable for YOU at the expense of game balance. Selfish.

    Get out of here already.

    That's exactly right. And when the devs have noticed that it affects a LOT of people, they do something about it. Let's take a quick survey across the player community...not the stalker community, of who's for and against the current state of stalkers....

    AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

    ED? Any of the huge AT/PvP-wide changes made? Just as a 'LOT' of people wanted those changes, a 'LOT' of people disliked them, too. Stop saying you're right just because you're in the majority - or, at least, you think you are because you people are the most vocal about being uninformed and yelling about nerfing.

    Being in the majority doesn't make you right. It just means your signal-noise ratio is higher.
  4. Notice all those things are PvE-specific.

    Also, you brought up the argument of 'fun', not 'balance'. I'm specifically stating things which are NOT fun in PvP, since you have the preconceived notion that Stalkers are the only kind of 'not fun' and need to be nerfed because of that. A lot of crap also falls under 'not fun', y'know.
  5. Oh. I misconstrued your last sentence as 'Our only problem IS that the statistics are wildly out of whack'.

    Stupid typoes.

    The game IS NOT balanced for solo play, and IT WILL be broken when you look at it from a 1vs1 perspective!


    [/ QUOTE ] Balance is irrelevant. It isn't "fun" when you can't see your opponent. Please clue into that. This is about "fun" not balance. Argue you all you want that stalkers are balanced. I don't care. PvP is a shadow of what it could because people don't enjoy getting ganked by invisible attackers.

    Getting ganked by people isn't fun. Let's remove PvP.



    It also isn't fun when you get permaheld, when you get jumped by a huge team when solo pvping, when you get tpfoed into tripmines, and when mobs accidentally kill you. Point?
  7. And how would YOU know?

    Until the server admins post actual numbers of what gets killed by what and what dies to what the most, I'm not buying this argument.
  8. That, however, assumes that stalkers ARE the most successful class at PvP, and that the herd doesn't stand any chance at all against the predator - which isn't true in this case.

    I'd love to see the numbers server-wise for no. of kills scored by stalkers and no. of kills scored by each other AT individually - heck, let's make it all of them. That'd be interesting reading.
  9. Speaking of which, I'm sure there's at least one guy out there who thinks that Assassin Strike is a ranged attack with instant activation.
  10. ....no, you can't.

    Also, you can't spell.
  11. A stalker can't queue AS, just like how you can't queue or auto any interruptible power. If you PLAYED one you'd know.

    Also, big deal. Don't tell me nobody takes tactics anyway for the acc boost, and people don't get access to +perception powers and AS-interrupt auras in most prim/secs.


    ....also, your stalker's level 14. You don't have ANY PvP zone experience at all at that level.


    Just...stop.

  13. The stalker doesn't always placate. Sometimes he follows up with an immediate quick damage attack to take out the blaster fast.
  14. Link for ICF_Zombra's guide isn't working.
  15. Right now, the number's still 10, I think. And you need to have done all of 'em after one of the old patches.
  16. My advice would be to use the boards for badge help, not GMs. Players know more about badges than they do, in a lot of cases, and it's doubtful a GM'll help much. Don't do silly stuff like PMing a redname unless it's a life-and-death issue, though. I'm sure they have enough stuff on their hands already.

    Anyway, GMs are silly. I still have a few emails languishing in my inbox from Support with wonderful tidbits of misinformation such as 'you can't get Untouchable on a villain' and 'we won't give you Rocketman because it'll be awarded in a - oh hey what you got it anyway? Fiiiiine.'
  17. Sounds like someone needs sensitivity training.
  18. Yeah. Poison Trap's one of the best traps abilities out there, since it's a GUARANTEED mag 2 hold to start out with everything it pops on and chance of further holds on anything that remains in the cloud, which you can help along with caltrops. Also, making things vomit is fun.

    Oh, and don't forget the pretty nasty slow, -regen and -recharge debuffs on it. They help a LOT.
  19. One thing I can't understand is why the Skulls have such a rad background and yet they're so lame in-game.

    I mean, c'mon. They have powers over unlife and death and all that crap, and yet all most of them do is sit around in a park all day and hit people with baseball bats and dinky guns.

    Also, if EVERY skull has a real skull mask, that means one guy's died for every single skull out there. Which is just, well, silly considering their NUMBERS.

    May suck for tanks, but for brutes it's farking glorious. And since it's the basis for the new swipe animation, I'm giddy as a schoolgirl.

    Doubt it is.

    For those interested in the post ED I6 version of a fire/fire brute, thanks for reading this. I will gab for a bit, and then get to the build.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I'm very interested as to WHERE you got your info for a PRE-ED brute of any kind.

    Also, WEAVE? On a BRUTE? No wonder you're having end problems.

    And taking Fire Sword at level 32 instead of Fire Sword Circle? Stamina only at 26? NO Fiery Embrace OR Build Up? And....no damage enhs AT ALL IN ANY ATTACK WHATSOEVER?

    Jeez, I'd hate to team with you.

    Some are even dense enough to immediately use an awaken.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I love them! Ahhh, good times.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I had someone like that once. Used an awaken, hit him, used an awaken, hit him, used ANOTHER awaken...

    I eventually yelled 'FINE, I GET THE POINT' and ran off.
