love regen for a basic stalker build, love wp even more but thats just cause i can make my stalker into a mini tank capable of taking on most scrappers in a 1v1 even out of hide (though sadly my old wp pre 13 was waaay better) Regen, more survivable but more work with accos and such, Wp easier 2 cap HP and better res. If u plan on putting alot of time and money into it id say go regen, if ur just out 2 have fun go wp. o and wps t9 is totally not useless i have no ida what that guys talking about saying no one takes it. But, we may just know different people, who knows i stick 2 zone mainly and almost if not all zone wp stalkers i know take it. I personally love it, pop it and let a couple of tankers wail on me while i laugh.. it makes me smile

I have both WP and Regen stalkers....i have to say that wp is better then regen. It's true you get crazy amounts of heals with regen..but your going to need them...everything hits regen's really hard. MOG is useless against the tons of psi blasters in zone now...and shadow meld its not all that great as its cracked up to be. You cant AS storms or bubblers. And barrier is wrong....hurdle and swift are awesome on stalker in the new city of suppression. Assault only adds like 10 points of dmg...and you have to take Leadership on your regen for the perception issue...as where in WP you can take Fitness.

I got a question does flurry crit from hide? I would guess so but haven't picked it up on my stalker yet to test.

why flurry when during that time..you could have got off another AS???? Placate FTW. What set do you have that would make you take flurry for more dmg????

A Regen can fire off MoG then you can AS storms/bubbles.

Can you explain why swift/hurdle have value in the new city of suppression please?

Regen has no repel resist, they would get close, hit AS and be interrupted as they are slowly repeled away from the target.

MoG has repel resist.
