Calling all Stalkers

By the sounds of it Stalkers can now be seen when in close range

By the sounds of. Maybe you could try it out before coming to a concrete conclusion. Since the alleged bug fix/nerf i've been caught out by unseen stalkers more often.
As for soloing, I cant see any AT soloing an enemy team with some pvp experience.

I don't need to try it out, people i trust have tested it...

Any AT can be built to solo in PvP and hunt whatever builds are paper to its scissors.

Solo PvP Sonic defender, anyone?
Hmmm, for that matter, are there any sonic defenders out there at all?

memememem! /e raise hand
lvl 31 Sonic/Psy defender, Dotty on defiant.
He's okish in PvP, but really needs a team. Stopped playing him when pve teams started dieing out then again, i prolly won't be playing unless i7 turns out to somehow be a huge success. (for CoH that is)

"A Scrapper is a lot like a chainsaw. Somewhat hard to handle, incredibly dangerous, and by far the most fun when wielded by the slightly insane."
As several folks have pointed out, any of the AT's can solo, just a question of how well. I mean my corruptor can people in PvP, but the odds on me soloing a scrapper or tanker are slim. I can kill a tanker with my dominator....it takes 18 mins. Stalkers are a new game dynamic, early on folks got AS'd all over the place, folks got upset at stalkers, but then figured, well to fight em we need to team up, lets get all those +per powers. I know my heros do, they also carry stacks of yellows for those twitchy moments when I see something briefly (think of em like a flashlight lol!).
So stalkers need to become more innovative, be it ranged crits in teams, maybe start working with that friendly dominator. Hell I have stood there as bait as my dominator for a group of stalkers near by. After all if the stalker is not in the centre of view, that suddenly makes that sneaking much easier.
Thank you confess. I agree.
I play as heroes & villains PvP and so I am aware of the odds, powers & balance (at least to some degree), this is how I see it:
Rd 1. CoV launched. Stalkers AS = Massacre
Wounded heroes stagger out & rally their thoughts
Rd.2 Heroes find that Tactics come in handy & maybe team up.
This time, a few Stalkers clutch their wounds and think to themselves we need a new plan now.
I have a Blaster, I solo or team in PvP and whatever happens, happens.
I also have a regen Stalker and I solo or team in PvP. These are choices my choices. I'll solo in BB with my stalker and 'stalk' if I can't find a team in the CoV environments, its fun.
The heroes have come back with a plan and now its the Stalkers turn again.
No nerfs. No bugs. No specific builds.

I'm pulling your leg, but this comment;
"be forced to team to be of any use in PVP"
Any AT can be built to solo in PvP and hunt whatever builds are paper to its scissors. Stalkers are no exception. I do think the tide has been turn against stalkers for some time as more and more heroes take tactics, I think the time where 75% of heroes had no chance of seeing them until the AS hit has passed, but things haven't changed that much. I saw a stalker take down an SR scrapper tonight in Siren's. I get chewed by stalkers all the time, although I sometimes get them back now
Bear in mind the number of time people were told to get into a team when they found themselves on the recieving end of an AS just too often for their liking. If it's good for the goose...
