Castle's Challenge

8 Dark Armor stalkers running stacked Opressive Glooms would dominate just about anything.

Dont believe me? Just take 2, just 2..into the RWZ and tackle a group of +4 Rikti. Now imagine 6 more. Swarm and destroy..no need to Assassinate anything.

Thats surprising that Castle said what he said.Considering im constantly looking for the so called "terrible" or "weak" sets and combos are and make them strong, and being a Melee Enthusist.I have to say that playing a Stalker for me is increadibly stupid easy.

I dont play Stalkers because id never get off the game to Bathe or Eat.Thats a bad combo.

Has anybody even done an all stalker Barracuda?

I can't imagine how you could kill Reichsman without res and regen debuff. That guy was an unholy monster of overpowered ridiculousness assuming he never got toned down...I haven't run Barracuda since the first week it was live. Bad SF was bad. Unless maybe you could blinding dust the 5th Column ambushes and try to wear him down through sheer misdirected nazi zerg or something.

Surgical strike ITF sounds fun. If it happens on freedom while I happen to be on I'd bring my old DM/Nin out...needs dusted off and I like scrapperlock. Course I should use that freespec and clean it up some, hmm. Don't have the patience for some goofy Master metagaming SF runs, though, I'd probably get splattered on the wall after getting bored and losing interest/focus.

if it's not a Master run...nukes and Shivans/HVAS

Hit me up I got a softcapped EM/Nin. I'd love to prove him wrong. Or even try just for fun

Prove him wrong about what?

Anyone in this thread talking about powersets or IOs has already failed to prove him wrong. He didn't say it couldn't be done with 8 IO'd out soft-capped (or whatever) Stalkers. He said he probably wouldn't have the patience for an all-stalker MoSF done HIS way, which is picking any eight people who know how to play their character... not eight people who happen to have min/maxed their builds.

That said, I don't think I'd have the patience for a MoSF or TF just picking eight randoms (even if they all know what they are doing) from ANY AT or combination of ATs. There are many more combinations of ATs that will have great trouble with master runs than just the all-stalker team. All-stalker may just be the most obvious example.

Ahmen!

Min/Max IO builds arent the norm.No matter what the forums here dictate about it, its more of a rareity in game.

Im half tempted to make a Stalker simply because I rarely even look at a IO.Havnt found the need for them yet on my builds.
