DM/nin

Hi all

After making a butload of scrappers - I decided I could use somewhat of a change. So I decided to roll redside and ended up loving stalkers.
After some research, taking pesky lethal resistances into account etc, I decided to roll DM/nin - since I can also pvp with it.

Now I got the pvp build all figured out - but I'm wondering if I need weave to softcap and I'm not sure about this , but stealth is not needed pvewise right?

If you've got some nice builds you're willing to post feel free to, one thingy - I'm on a mac and mid's for i16 isn't available to me, so the full post would be required.

Weave isn't required to soft-cap, but you'll need a LOT of IOs to do it otherwise; melee and ranged are fairly easy, it's the AoE that's the problem. I don't have a build for her (lost it with a hard drive crash months ago), but my DM/Nin is soft-capped to Melee and Ranged with AoE in the low 40s using no Blessing of the Zephyrs; my Elec/Nin planned build is softcapped without Weave but I still don't have it done (because Blessing of the Zephyrs are annoying to get).

Stealth is useless for a Stalker in PvE. Anything that can see you with Hide up will see you regardless because it ignores stealth entirely. So basically stay away from Rikti drones (or Placate them) and Knives of Artemis... I'm not sure if Cysts just have a high perception radius or completely ignore stealth also, but I've been attacked by one with around 100' of stealth on a LGTF before (that was with a Corruptor, though).

Enjoy!
