Yes, it is possible to solo AVs with a Stalker. It requires more work than a Scrapper or Brute, though - your damage while solo is a bit lower, and your hit point cap is a lot lower so the hits that get through hurt a lot more.
The "solo AV" build probably won't work as a "viable" (read: good) PvP build* unless you're planning on just doing zone, though. The good DPA attacks in PvE simply aren't, in PvP, and your attack chain will be limited to Assassin's Strike and whatever else you can land after it; none of my PvE specced /Nin Stalkers found a need for 41+ points of Knockback protection; also, I have yet to find a need to use Stealth or Invisibility on a Stalker in PvE but if you're not stealth-capped in PvP you may as well run around yelling "shoot me, shoot me!"
You're probably better off just using both builds, and focusing on what you want each to do.
* - although with enough inf and/or drops, this is far less relevant and you can make one build for both

Hi all. Have a few quick wuestions for the stalker gurus. A little background first though. I have been playing since shortly after I2 released. I have a couple scraapers that can solo Av's, a brute that can solo Av's, but not a stalker past 25 yet. I'm just curious, is it possible for stalkers to solo av's? If so, are those same stalkers still viable in pvp? I've been thinking of rolling either an em/nin or an em/wp. Anyone have any suggestions?
