We gave up our fire in favor of fish. Welcome to i13.
Fish are fun. Respec into them and you'll see why. 
Talk to Castle, shark hits harder than almost all other attacks.
stalker 154 (can full crit)
brute 161
widow 191
As a point of reference such high damage attacks as:
brute KO blow 167
stalker ET 228
widow subdue 126
corr shout 150
As you can see it hits as hard as or harder than most of the "big" hitters from damage sets.
It hits considerably harder than stalker impale from more range. For them it is like going back several issues to when impale had an 80ft range heh.
edit: maximum shark cheese seems to be:
bu impale crit + placate+ shark crit which is good for about 1680 damage before resistances.
Squishies get a free 28% res in pvp, which is boosted to 40% if they take a res based epic armor.
So the stalker can expect to net anywhere between and 1k and 1,200 damage.
I was just on my tank and entered RV and was jumping around and all of a sudden I see 3 sharks coming at me and I hit my heal that capped my HP and I thought I was in the clear. Then out of nowhere 3 stalkers, 1 bane, 2 forts, and a brute all send a school of sharks at me and I died fast. I know it was a lot of them against me and no AT can take that much burst damage, but it still suck that every baddie has the same type of patron because the damage is insane.

@Mindshadow
send castle a pm saying he failed at pvp balance 101. I'm sure he's gotten plenty of those though and the epic thread of pvp negatives vs the small thread of pvp positives is quite revealing.
Balancing around cast time when powers were poorly designed to begin with is probably not the best thing to do 
I'll be honest. I don't understand how you people even do PvP in RV these days. It's such a ridiculous joke, I can't imagine how anybody can have fun doing it.
The sharks, the broken elusivity coupled with non-stop tier 9's, the constant hibernoob/PFF/phase....it's like the absolute worst PvP this game has ever seen.
Be smart, stick to Sirens. PvP there is still actually playable.

Meh, I had the mako PPP way before all this happen. Mainly just cause I think they looked cool

[/ QUOTE ]My spine/dark Stalker's first of the dual build has soul mastery for shadow meld and dark blast but my second build is made for ITF and has cloak of fear, spirit shark and water spout and the shark throwing can be a riot, I can see why it's handy in pvp.

Sharks do High damage and when a stalker is hidden it crits. I have been hit for over 600 on my tanker by a stalker shark attack. I stepped out the base 2 days ago and my tanker has 2804hp (Not Accoladed Yet) and I was hit by 3 stalker sharks and Impale, 1 bane sharks and a sonic corr and I was dead in 3 seconds. It was a WP tank and he doesnt have high resist like a invul, but 3 seconds?

6 vs 1 how long should you survive when 5 of them are "very high" damage AT's and one is a "high" damage AT.
I'm not saying shark spam isn't retarded because it is.
