Its looking very good now, the only thing im worried about is the snipe. (its the thought of being stood there for a few secs becoming easy prey in Recluses Victory)

How are you going to use that snipe in Warburg again?

Indeed!

looks good blizz
1 point tho .. i'd take off 2 slots from health and drop one on danger sense as that bugger sucks loads of end and drop the other either on the snipe as another ACC or on the PPP hold (don't need the dmg on there really).
Other than that its a good build.

oh i wouldn't worry about the snipe time either .. with the intx redux its not as long as it was before

Defiant's GoEH/MILITIS METUS

Drop health, take hurdle, the slots from health stick tohitbuffs into build up.

Take acrobatics instead of health.

Drop smokeflash, take your self heal, slot it 3 heal 3 recharge.

Drop the end redux in hide, use it in places where your short (see above)

Drop the recharges from flashing steel and sting of wasp and use them as end redux in danger sense and ninja reflexes.

I'd also rearrange power order so that you have stealth in sirens call.

Any spare slots, slot your movement.

Kuji-In Sha is a fantastic self heal. Charges fast with 3x RecRed and just beats a fully slotted Reconstruction. Personally I think it's the main reason to take Nin over SR. You need it

Maybe it's just me sucking, or is the Nin/Nin stalker -really- sucky at low level?

Most Def sets are, I know I felt the pain on my EA Stalker and my SR Scrapper. Def really shines when you get multiple shields/SO's, nothing like beating on a mob and hardly being hit while your res based friend starts screaming for heals.

I'm talking damage-wise. I think my Brawl could do more damage than my special attacks. :|

I'd say it's just you. Yes, regular Stalker damage is fairly low, but slot your attacks for DMG and use plenty of attacks from hide (automatic critical hits y'know)... plus you can't claim Assassin's Strike is low DMG

If used out of hide, sure you can... with its "below Brawl" damage .

But then again, I shouldn't expect alot of damage. Level 7. xD

Ahem. Double post. (Ninja bump.)

I noticed.. Nin/Nin is frickin' endurance heavy.

Yeah its danger sense toggle, it has AoE and range defence, so is extra heavy on endurance.

Ah.. Explains why. Looks like I'm getting Stamina later.

Please bear in mind that an investigation into endurance being extra high on many characters post I7.
