Claws/EA =P
Anyone?
if your planning on pvp at all i'd steer clear of claws, they're probably the worst stalker primary in pvp
If you're going for high-level PvP, you should consider getting Invisibility in the build, since it's to a stalker what black is to an emo these days. (REF) I'd personally get more TH_Buffs to build-up to ease life against +def people. But that's just me.
Also, as blackbone pointed out, for PvP, claws is quite terrible (which is why I'm building a PvP Claw/EA stalker atm over at deviant), but it is probably the best set for a "scrapperish" stalker. People have done scralpers (is that the word?) with Claws/Regen, but not sure how it would work with /EA

I find my Spines/EA is easily capable of scrapping in PVE and occasionally finds himself having to do a little tanking in some of the extremely poor pick up groups I attract.
In PVP: I'm happy to scrap about after defenders and controllers if necessary, but won't try it against anything other than a poor scrapper or blaster as to hit buffs can cut through all my defences pretty quickly. I find it's not worth trying to scrap against a tanker as I can't make a big enough dent in them not to get bored.

claws isn't terrible its a squishy killer from range, look at focus and shockwave, throw in a snipe from range. They'll have their uses. Definately not gimp.
I hate fighting claws stalkers with my stormy, focus is a nasty attack when it crits especially with the Knockdown.Throw in shockwave they can perma KB opponents, not to mention the repel resistance.

Claws is probably one of the best, mainly for the ranged attack. Try going up against a Claws Scrapper and say claws is bad.
And with the upcoming I7 changes it'll only get better...
Hey! I wanted to know what do you think of my build, it will be my first stalker so advices are welcome =)
