Stalker primary ?


BrandX

 

Posted

I havent played stalkers much or seriously.

Im tempted to roll another one and pvp with it, and was wondering what are the good primary sets for pvp atm ? ( i say "atm" cause i know stuff get nerfed or change overtime)

I asked a friend few months ago and he told me to go for either DB or BS, later on he told me that BS is not that great and someone else told me that DB , you dont have time to do much c0mbo, so you dont take full advantage of it. So im back to square 1. I know elec/ was popular, but i dont hear from it much lately, so i wonder if it got nerfed ? Im also wondering how good the toxic dam can be on spline... well anyways..

What are the good primary sets in pvp these days ?

Elec, Spines. EM kinda but I wouldn't roll one with Elec and Spines being around.

Dark is rather under-rated as well.

If you plan on 1v1s: EM
If you plan on messing around in zones: Elec
For team matches: Anything that has AS.

That makes a pretty broad assumption that most Stalker players can actually AS.

Spines tends to be the one I see most.

That said, I've done ok with NB... The main issue is no ranged finisher for when
the victim bails after an AS... Sharks, Blackwand, Gloom, Nemmie Staff, etc.
are all helpful in that regard...

Spines solves that problem with Impale...

I've been rich, and I've been poor. Rich is definitely better.

Problem is most people in this game are retarded and would rather impale/shrak/impale/shrak/impale/shrak rather then AS.

Something to note for team arena stalking. Claws still has a 72 second base build up time where I'm pretty sure every other primary has it at 90 seconds.

If your three primary abilities are build up, AS, Shark it definitely comes in handy there.

Wtf? That's a bug right? Strange, I never heard of it before.

I dunno for sure its been that way for a *while* though. Pre i13 I think? Maybe?

It's WAI and has been that way for quite a long time, mostly because Stalker players wanted some parity to the constant damage/tohit buff Clawls Scrappers get.

Ah, that's interesting. Good to know.

The best primary for stalkers is AS and SHRAK.

I'm sorry... I'm new to this..

What is SHRAK?

lol - fair enough... Of course, bad players are just bad...

My thought on that is if a player can't find a way to use his hardest hitting
attack fairly often, he might need some more practice time to figure out
how to play the toon.

That's not to say every player/toon can be AS'd, but if TrowShrak is the
*only* way the player can attack, remedial training is a definite requirement.

I thought it was because Build Up wasn't being given the END/RCH discount that it should of originally had, so they finally gave it.
