My opinions on creating an MA/EA or any stalker for that matter. Im gonna run down powers and give them a 1-5 
, then talk about some good power pool powers.
Martial Arts
Thunder Kick -Quick attack time, low damage, and a chance for a disorient. This will be needed at low levels, where there are fewer attacks, but I suggest respeccing out of it to get Cobra Strike. Rating:
Storm Kick - Your basic attack. Mod damage, mod recharge, no special effects. I used it extensively at low levels, and I find it comes in handy later on too for extra 4th power. Definitely take it as your first MA attack, then its optional to respec out later on. Rating:
Crippling Axe Kick- I didn't take this till I got into the mid 20s, and boy was that a mistake. The highest damage out of the first 3 strikes in MA, plus it drops flyers (great for pvp), slows, and occaisonally immobolizes. Only thing I see wrong is it doesn't flow graphically with the rest of the set. O well. Pick this up and use it.
Assassin's Blow- AKA I can now contribute to the team. Pick it at 6, six slot it, love it.
Focus Chi (Build Up)- Cool name for build up. If you dont know by now its one of the 4 core stalker powers. Get it, and 3 slot it for recharge. Rating:
Placate - Another core stalker power. Gives a chance to get an extra crit, or an extra AS for that tail end mob. Also gives you the ability to deal even more damage in groups. And a great O <States doesnt like these words>.Get it as soon as its availiable, 3 slot it for recharge. Rating:
Cobra Strike- This power is not an attack. This causese the target to be disoriented. Very little damage. I love this power, helps in PvP and PvE, though I've seen builds that use Eagles Claw/Thunder Kick for their disorient needs. I would suggest taking this power, as it helps get off AS, especially in PvP, but its not necessarily mandatory. I would suggest 2/3 slots for acc and maybe one or 2 for recharge if you got em to spare. Rating:
Crane Kick- Now we get the good attacks. I took this as soon as it was available, because I had only 2 low damage attacks before this. High damage plus knockback. Also it looks good. The knockback can be annoying, but if you know how to use it it works wonders. I would definitely get this. Rating:
Eagles Claw- The best attack in the set. This is madatory, I don't care what your build is. It looks spectacular, plus gives a disorient occaisonally. And it can occaisonaly crit without you being hidden. Take this, and you should probably six slot it. If you only take one power from MA (other than AS, BU, and Placate) take this. Rating
Now on to EA
Hide- Have to take it. Learn to love this. Ive heard that it should be slotted for recharge. I didn'd do this but I've heard it was effective. Either way, this power makes us. And you have to take it. Rating:
Kinetic Shield- The only lethal/smash shield we got. Get it, slot it. Your gonna need it. And it defends against ranged and melee with one shield. Maybe 1or 2 end redux, and 1 or 2 def enhancers. Rating:
Power Shield- This is a good power, but it can be skipped until the mid 20s or so if you want. You will need it after that though. Take it sooner or later and slot it the same as kinetic. Plus the resistance to debuffs helps more than you think. Rating:
Entropy Shield- This power is great. I seem to see very little love for this power. Resistance to Knockback, disorient, hold, sleep, and immobilization. This power rocks, and I suggest getting it mid teens if you can afford it. Base slot (or one more if you have end problems) with end redux. Rating:
Energy Protection- An auto power. I've never been a fan of auto powers. They offer less defense, and in an MA/EA build end isnt usually a problem. If you do however run into end poblems, you can drop energy protection and get this, or if you feel you need the extra protection get it. But if you only want one energy protection power go with Power Shield. Rating:
Repulse- Creates a field that violently repells foes. This power is really only good for PvP that ive seen, and then only after AS. I don't personally like it, but if your going for a PvP build it might be worth it (it detoggles I belive). Might want to slot for end redux on this too, and maybe 1 or 2 acc. Rating:
Energy Drain- This power really helps if you have end problems, and if you slot heavily enough it can be devastating in PvP. I use it moreso in PvE, especially against those nasty nullifiers while grouping. If you want a PvP build, slot 2 or 3 end modifiers into this, to drain as much from your enemy as possible. Rating:
Conserve Power- I'm not a big fan of this power. If you need end, take it. Otherwise, I get more use out of Energy Drain. If you do get it, might wanna slot some recharge redux. Rating:
Overload- Amazing. Elude+Temporary God Status. This is amazing solo, group, PvP, PvE. Get it as your last power, and as a treat to yourself for getting to 38. Six slot to your preferences, though I'd go with 3 recharge.
Rating:
Power Pools:
First off I'd say Fitness to Stamina is reccomended, though with some clever slotting and conserve power/ energy drain you can get away without it. I find its better to slot for def/damage/acc and just take this, but its up to you.
Concealment - Stealth - This is a must have in PvP. I see no use for it in PvE (unless youve got a corruptor throwing you mad end recharge and want more def). I just base slotted it with def. If you are never going to PvP you don't need it. Otherwise, its mandatory.
You can go farther into that power pool too, PS is a great O <States still doesn't like these words> power. Hopefully it will be un-nerfed, at least in PvE. Invisibility is also nice, but its a tad pointless with hide/stealth.
Leaping- This is my travel set. I went with combat jumping for some extra defense, then SJ.
Super Speed- Hasten and Superspeed are the powers here. I like both of em, and SS really helps stalkers to stealth through those paper missions. Hasten also is nice to get as/bu/placate up faster, and its my reccomendation if you get SS. Warning: The rogue Isles are not fun to SS through, and you may want another travel power.
Teleportation: TP Foe (PvP) Recall friend (PvE) Teleport. If you PVP alot, this is the set for you. Get in quick, get out quick, or use tp foe to wreack havoc. Also, if you have a stable PvP group that knows what their doing, TP Foe + Group Teleport is a great tactic.
Other notable sets : Leadership, Medecine, Fighting. They have their uses, though never took them.
And theirs my guide. Hope everyone likes it.
Pom-Poms of Death v.2-The EM/SR Stalker Guide
Replace my old guide with this one, if you wish.
Guide Update:
Stalker PvP Guide (Energy Melee / Ninjitsu) -- v 2
Although CuppaJo was kind enough to lock the old thread and link to the new one from there - thank you - I figured I would still put this here so it gues in the next OP update.
Was wondering: I am an EM/Reg build stalker and was wondering if anyone has ever tried Presence Power Pool/ Intimidate and whether that would be a great power to get for stalkers in pvp seeing as no one has protection from fear.
ok so thx for the guide and the videos were kool 2

-Virtue's First Naughty Girl-
I have a couple of questions... I play an EM/Regen Stalker. He's only lvl 22, but I've noticed a big problem already in PvP. Basically, it's that most people have tactics! Is there a way to get around this or to make my stalker more hidden so I can actually attack with some damage? Also, are there any good guides or build maps for an EM/Regen Stalker?

Me three!
There is not very much info available about DM that I can find...
actualy, after looking over ALL the FAQ and guides, there's so few that are I7.
I REALLY want to see a scaledown of the DM's powers in stalkers, what people think, suggested slotting, etc. As it is, with even herobuilder not having up to date info, it's guesswork when tryin to figer out what does what(the scrapper and brute DM sets are slightly diffrent than the stalker one, and I know the armor's for brute, scraper, and stalkers all have diffrent end costs, etc...)
Anyways, long to short, we need a good guide/faq on DM.
Hello everyone. I have a EM/SR and a EM/EA stalker and want to now try a SPINES/REGEN one. I know enough about stalkers to know about primaries, how they work what they can do exc. I know nothing about Regen though. I def. don't want this to be a which ones better (secondary) contest, which seems to be ALWAYS debated and NEVER solved
Anyways, if anyone has a solid build for Spines/Regen (I7) or a /regen that works well I would really appreciate a guilde of some sort. I will be taking him to at least 40 and want to PvP for sure. I guess lv'n him at first then resepcting @ 34'ish?
Thanks (up front)
Well, I have a DM/DA stalker on virtue as well as my hero main DM/DA Scrapper. i'll try to compare the two. different ATs require different powers from the set. i am in the process of trying to do a comparision.
add please:

This thread is for posting Guide or FAQ links for Stalkers. Please create your guides in the "Player Guides" forum (since posts in that section do not roll off) and link the thread here. Also, do not post your guide in this thread - only the link to your guide. For non-Stalker guides, check the master list of all Guides in the Guide to Guides.
Failing any clear identifier from the poster, I will go by the original post date vs. Issue releases (I1: 6/30/04, I2: 9/17/04, I3: 1/5/05, I4: 5/5/05, I5: 9/1/05, I6: 10/28/05, I7:6/6/06, I8 :11/28/06) - e.g., if it was posted in March/05, it is an I3 Guide.
Guides appearing here were gleaned from links posted in one of the "Guide to Guides" threads (the Stalker GtG or the GtG threads in the "Player Guides" forum). We cannot sift through the hundreds of individual threads to find a posting, so be sure to 1) place your guide in the "Player Guides" forum, nowhere else and 2) post a link to it in a "Guide to Guides" thread!
