How To Make Thing's Die: Serps' Guide to Nin/Nin Stalkers
The best guide I've ever written.

Yep, except for an improper use of an apostrophe
How To Make Things Die: Serps' Guide to Nin/Nin Stalkers
Unless, of course, the guide is about the correct machining procedures and materials to make a die owned by Thing

Care to write something up on Patron pools? Yeah, we hope they'll be revamped, but how do they stand now? Aside from "not very well.'

Don't really need a guide for that. Generally, from what I've read lurking on the forums:
Widow and Mu are decent, with fast animating attacks that can be slotted into a DPS chain fairly well.
Mace has redraw and tends to be less effective, web grenade can be nice for PvP, but other than that I never hear the praises of it sung.
As for Mako, I never hear anyone talking about Mako, sometimes I even wonder if the silly [censored] VFX turns most people off the pool completely.

[/ QUOTE ]Seconded! Considering the huge changes Stalkers have gone through, almost every guide in this thread is nearly obsolete.
All that is planned fails. All that is born dies.
All that is built crumbles. This will always be true.
But memories remain, And that is beautiful.
That's because writing power guides is pretty much obsolete. Except for asking a specific question or two here and there, pretty much everything a guide can tell you you can learn easier yourself with the 'real numbers' feature and Mid's, and the 'tactical' considerations haven't changed much since release, so those ald tactics guides for stalkers are still relevant.
Still, it'd be nice to be able to get an archive of info on a particular set quickly without having to ask around again, if you're not a number cruncher.

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!

You, uh, kinda missed both my guides, mate.
Edit: Acutally, you put Art of Ninja in an incorrect section and completely left out Death and Darkness. I feel ever so unappreciated
Doom.
Yep.
This is really doom.
The Art of the Ninja is already under Ninja Blade...but I see I forgot to put it under Ninjitsu. And sorry about missing your other guide...I don't remember seeing it going through the thread. Sorry about that...update on the way

Let me know if there are any more issues with the list...will check back later.
Hey d00ds. Once I13 goes live and I make a new complete Stalker guide and the like, I can compile every old and new guide and send it to Ex to post in a stickied thread so we can get a new official list going and delete this one. This would be a good waste of time for the other ATs as well.
Maybe we shouldn't bother putting the old guides there either, since they are no longer valid. It would also make it easier to find the right guide.
Any good MA/SR stalker guides out there? I've been trying to find one but so far, no luck.
Mako has good choices for any AT. A lot of ppl are just turned off by the shark animation but Make is a good choice for all AT's...it just depends on what your toons needs are.
Wow. I know elec/elec is looked down on, but not a single entry in either set?
Just FYI, Camo, the link "Harbingers Claws/Regen Stalker Guide (NefariousB) [I8]" actually links to a Dark/Nin guide, not a Claw/Regen guide.
Elec Melee is a great PVE set. You really can't go wrong with the amazing AoE goodness.
/Elec Armor... not so much Go with EA, if you want something equally flashy and somewhat thematic.

id like to see a dark melee/super reflexes guide and an elec/??? guide
readyetgo
anyoneone have a nin/energy build thats I12?
Knowledge is power.
Power corrupts.
Study Hard. Be evil.
I need a guide for playing a dual blades (I think that's what it's called). I keep dying.
some1 needs to come up with some guides that are around I12 cuase a lot has changed over the years and with all those chages these guides are not actually doin you any good...
