Whilst I had my spell in US I was leveling an EM/EA stalker, lvl 40 atm, and I would like to get round to finishing him but I cant really decide on a build I like its too tight.

This is my current planned build:

I'd have liked to have fit in the webnade epic but I cant find room for two powers . . . and the lack of pools means I cant get leaping so maybe movement will be a problem :/ But any advice would be well recieved

I like your build atm, if i were you, i would probably drop Phase Shift and get combat jumping, if slotted (with hurdle) the jump height is pretty good imo

Yup looking good, but maybe a little overkill on endrdx? I'd try to get a thrid heal in aidself and a third recharge in placate in possible, instead of, for instance, the third endrdx on invis (u cant attack while on it so although it's an end heavy toggle, you shouldnt notice it much) and maybe the endrdx in energy punch, as it's just a filler and you hopefully won't be chaining too many attacks being a stalker.

Mako's tornado is a must have, for duels and team pvp. Much better than the webnade

For the movement issue, and as a personal choice (you know me) I would and get tp foe, basically for fliers and runners.

Just a quick FYI but you know you don't get an extra jump height from slotting hurdle ?.

Thanks for the comments the slotting was left over from a stamina-less concept build with energy drain and leaping hence the end reds and jumps in hurdle, didnt think the slotting needed changing too much but i was wrong hehe. It didnt work mainly because of unsuppressed movement.

I would love TP foe but I need speed, fitness, medicine, concealment so there are no pools

Take 2:

Yeah, placate is a must 3 slotted IMO, When Overload will drop for example, YOU can use placate to remove the target of enemy from you. which means gives you time to hide, toggles and End drain

EDIT : Placate does only need 3 Recharges, it uses no endurance for activation

Looking better Yeah u are right on tp foe and the pools u need, i'm too used to my regen it seems hehe.
Just a couple of things, ET is never up quick enough, i'd consider skipping the endrdx (it's mainly hp heavy, not endurance really) and putting a rech instead (i also have AS slotted like that, but maybe i'm a bit anxious ).
You dont really need endrdx on phase shift, it would only make sense if you phased to recover end quicklier, and given your build I don't think that's the case, maybe u can find better use for that slot elsewhere.
Consider slotting aid self 3 heal 2 intred 1 rech. The difference in interruption is minimal (you can still heal while being shot by a machine gun mob), but the recharge is quite significant.

That end red slot in placate is supposed to be a recharge >.< But thanks for the comments

Good to know this isnt a gimped combination, I have an energy/energy on the way up and was tempted to reroll spine/energy or ninja.
