Could this thread be more hijacked? It was about a ninja blade set not how weak regen was.
indeed ^^
Well it wasn't intentional, I was just pointing out that NB isn't quite so bad when combined with a +Def set.
I really should do something about this signature.
no you was beefing about regen saying its rubbish in as many words which is gonna put people off making a regen stalker. negative comments are uncalled for.
you could have said in my opinion regen isnt as strong not if you are regen you are a gimp maybe mate.
No, you missinterpreted my remark.
1) I was talking specificaly about NB+Regen
2) I used the phrase "bit of a gimp" not "a gimp"
3) This was hyperbole (exageration used for effect)
4) It is a matter of fact, not opinion that SR is stronger than Regen in PvP. You have been able to PvP successfully with Regen. This does not prove that you wouldn't have done even better with SR.
5) Why are you so desperate that people should play regen stalkers that you think information should be concealed from new players? I probably have the only level 32 Illusion/TA controller on Defiant. I like being unique.

im not trying to promote regen or say its the best just bored of people saying regen is poor when they havent spent alot of time playing it like i have. i know a lvl 40 ma/regen stalker who is also very good in pvp.
Take a NB/Regen Stalker. But them in a box with a Katana/Regen Scrapper. Have them controlled by players of equal skill. Result? Easy victory for scrapper.
This proves nothing, however now thake a NB/SR Stalker. Put them in a box with a Katana/SR Scrapper. Result? difficult victory for stalker.
This is nothing to do with "how they play" it is a simple matter of number crunching, based on regeneration rate (and healing, and dull pain) being based on MAXIMUM HP, which a stalker lacks.
I really should do something about this signature.
so what if a stalker doesnt have same hp as a scrapper, i know for a fact my sg m8's lvl 40 regen stalker is just as hard as his regen scrapper for defence. he put the builds in coh planner and got very similar results. at the end of the day we will agree to disagree but you have to stop having a go at other peoples power sets which you did do to be fair.
So are you saying that a regen stalker can regenarate as fast as a regen scrapper? Because if you are you are just wrong.
Acording to your sig you play a MA/regen stalker. [sorry, not true] MA enables you to knockdown or stun your oponent, giving you a chance to regenarate. I play an NRG/regen stalker so I can stun my targets and regenerate. Spines has the ability to slow.
The only defense NB has is the parry ability, wich is only really effective WHEN COMBINED WITH OTHER +DEF POWERS. Hence, NB when combined with Regen is a bit gimped.

no i play a ninja blade / regen stalker who happens to be fairly good in pvp and pve as many of my team m8s can vouch for. also didnt mention anything about regen rates, i just stated that the defence on a regen stalker is comparable to a regen scrapper according to the coh planner.
well it would be, since nether of them are defence sets*.
*the stalker gets a little defence from hide, but the scrapper gets none at all.
**apart from MoG.

well my stalker has tough and weave, hide and combat jumping which would give me a defensive bonus wouldnt you say hmm?
and if you are so sure my regen stalker is a gimp why dont you pop into pvp warburg sometime with your MM or any other toon and we will put him to the test.
Hardly anything left of NB or Regen if you took all of those pool powers then. You avoided being gimped by not taking the powers. 
BTW did you slot CJ for defense?
I really should do something about this signature.
i still have enough of regen and nb to 3 hit kill your mm or dom easily if im being honest. i have made a build to compensate the lack of defence in order for me to hold my own in pvp. with integration, tough, weave and combat jumping running i am a tough opponent.
Do you actually know what the defense bonus for CJ is?

HIJACKING !!! plz make your own post -_-
/Regen Stalkers are the easiest Stalkers to flush out and kill in PvP, fact. Sorry but that's just how it is. End of story.
Anyhoo I guess Ninja Blade makes up for the lack of stun etc with it's Accuracy increase and -Def, so even more accurate. Saying that though it isn't exactly as desireable for a Stalker as stuns, but it does get some knockup/down.

Ah, well that is what regen can do, but a Stalker who has to resort to scrapping is already in a weakened position.

A stalker is a scrapper in disguise XD
