See, that was your first mistake. Stacked Follow Up is a thing of beauty (but I understand your reservations).

Interesting I hadnt noticed the fast recharge on follow up before

Should be possible to stack with 3recharge hasten and quickness. Follow up is truly awesome, I think claws is actually great in the long term it does very high damage. Should try it out. Might wana try your claws on the US servers then bring him over here with hami-Os follow up with 3nucleolus and 3membrane HOs would be just insane.
If u dont like spines, i'd go for broadsword hands down. If u can handle endurance issues. SR with parry would make u pretty untouchable... and about dmg.. well u know the deal with BS

Ok Im making a SR scrapper, I have the build all ready all organised but Im just not sure which primary to pick. I have a Spines regen so I dont need another spiney as fun as they are but I have found the lack of stun in the set quite annoying in high lvl pvp so MA could fill that gap, but then there is always broadsword with its huge damage.....
I have discounted Claws and Dark Melee due to lack of a (*edit* proper 
) build up and dont fancy katana
so....suggestions please

But soul drain on 16 mobs gives 240% (IIRC) extra damage, its worth the wait

For PvP surely ToF makes up for the lack of Build up?

Touch of fear is brilliant. About to be ASed? See the stalker with focused senses, stop the stalker with Touch of Fear, beat the stalker with shadow maul. Remove henchmen so you can get to the MM, stop brutes from hitting you, stop doms holding you or corrupters blasting you. A wonderful power.
Oh, and 20% acc debuff in PVP? sheer bliss as they flail mindlessly at you and hit thin air

Well in my BS build I didnt take parry, partly ue to the fact that my fun big attacks rotate so quickly and Im not sure that I would want to ahve to monitor when parry is about to drop. I suppose I could drop slice for parry....
How long does the parry buff last?

Hmm i dont have the hard numbers, but u can stack 2 of them easily with 3 recharge 
. I'll log my bs and test myself
Tried DM/SR in the RV event (already built him before, just wanted to see what he'd be like at 40 and with defbuffs from i7 in place) and must say he pretty much ruled. ToF is a nice addition to your attack chain in PvP cause of the low resisted fear (and of course -acc )
however:

...doesnt work if its a /nin stalker

Parry lasts for 10 seconds, with 3 rech u can have 2 almost perma stacked. With hasten u sometimes get to 3
well i am slightly biased but.. MA FTW!
If you're looking for PVP SR scrapper, then I would go with either Broadsword (for huge damage and Parry stacking) or MA (disorientates, power activation cost relatively low to other scrapper primaries).
Also bear in mind, there's a heck of a lot of MA/SRs out there (I've got one myself). By taking BS/SR, there's only a handful knocking about at a considerable lvl.

Anyone know the magnitude of resistance for a /nin stalker? with hasten and quickness I'm fairly certain ToF can be stacked to overcome the resistance.
And besides, theres still that 20% acc debuff. Combine that with SR's defences, I would really, REALLY like to see a stalker land the AS
Im gonna go with BS as 1 parry will add 24% to my def and 2 should be 48% + 30% from normal defences = uber pvp defences thats better than elude on its own

I think this would be a fun activity for when the other side is dominating in PvP. Having elude style defence should allow you to stand there and just get wailed on by half a dozen villains indefinitely. Or of course you could just use elude but good luck getting out before it crashes.
I understand you already made your choice, I also understand you disregarded DM, but for ubberness I would take it. If I could re roll Troke he would be DM/SR and my regen would be something else. DM/SR are 2 power sets that compliment each other like no others in the game and make for a fantastic combo. Yes soul drain is not the best PvP build up going but the sets offer lots of others bits to compensate.

I know just how good DM/SR synergy is as a good friend of my has it and is a royal pain in the [censored] when Im fighting her, the -acc in pvp situations is nuts. But there just isnt enough high hitting attacks for the way I want my secondary and power pools to be fitted and there are other things I would want from the DM primary too so would have to drop 2 powers from secondary/pools for my perfect dm/sr build
