Mentioned it in the Ice Proliferation thread, but it definitely needed to be stated here. I might actually use my DA stalker more now.
"the reason there are so many sarcastic pvpers is we already had a better version of pvp taken away from us to appease bad players. Back then we chuckled at how bad players came here and whined. If we knew that was the actual voice devs would listen to instead of informed, educated players we probably would have been bigger dicks back then." -ConFlict
just as interesting IMO:
Martial Arts
* Cobra Strike changes:
o Decreased Recharge Time from 20 seconds to 12 seconds
o Increased Endurance Cost from 10.14 to 11.86
o Increased damage scale from 0.25 to 2.28
o Reduced Stun chance from 100% to 75%
* Martial Arts/Cobra Strike - Updated Long Help Description to match the powers new damage and recharge values.
* Martial Arts/Cobra Strike - Reduced Recharge from 12 seconds to 10, reduced damage from scale 2.28 to 1.96, decreased end cost from 11.86 to 10.19.
* Martial Arts/Eagle Claw - Increased recharge time from 12 seconds to 16 seconds, increased damage from 2.28 to 2.92, increased end cost from 11.86 to 15.18.
* Martial Arts/Cobra Strike - Changed Long and Short help to display Medium damage.
* Martial Arts/Crippling Axe Kick -- increased recharge to 11 seconds, and increased damage and endurance cost appropriately. Added 10 second unenhanceable Defense Debuff.
* Martial Arts/Cobra Strike Critical damage now matches the base attack damage.
Crobra strike got the "clobber" treatment... should be a nice 1-2 combo with EC for crippling bosses. Also, CaK supposedly hits pretty hard now too.
Heck, I'm tempted to make a MA/DA now.

I put the damage scale/activation numbers for MA in the the MA/SR help thread - throwing out Thunder Kick and Assassin's Blow as skippable and not used in regular combat, the lowest DPA (Eagle Claw) is equal to Focus.|

Wo, the toggle changes are quite interesting and just made things even more interesting for my /EA and /Dark Stalker (who already had the toggles and used them).
My intention to roll a Kin/Dark Stalker is now looking really good 
My long time DM/DA stalker always used OG by just toggle management. This change is going to make it stupid easy. But some people couldnt figure it out, so ...there you go. Now I look for cries that OG needs nerfed, it wont be long. Its that good. Im glad I got all the purples I need for it now. Let the bidding wars begin.

So I can run Repel while hidden now, and get "Assassin's BOING!!!" right after my AS? That would look basass, like your AS just blasted everyone into the air.
Also, I might actually try /DA now...

OK, for some reason, I'm having difficulty figuring out where a Stalker is running Repel from. I made a quick pass through Paragon Wiki, and didn't see Repel in any Primary, Secondary, Patron, or Ancillary sets. Is it a proc effect that you put into an offensive toggle?

I don't think I have ever seen an EA stalker take repel...
I don't think with how tight stalker builds are that will change.
When something good happens to me, I can never enjoy it....
I am always too busy looking for the inevitable punchline...
BEHOLD THE POWER OF CHEESE!
I never play my DA stalker because of those toggles. Now I might, again. And slot him. But still, in the end... it's DA on a stalker... and I can't see the point. Not after 50 levels of pain.

This.
Wow, I think this is going to be pretty huge. I think DA stalkers might just become the new FotM... well, at least Flavor of the Moment at least.
I rolled mine up last night, a KM/DA named Chagrin Spice, for the express purpose of actually absorbing the GR content rather than level jamming like I've been doing.

Yes... Yes... Stacking cloak of fear with the demoralizing effect... Opressive gloom... Shadow meld could get a rest once in a while. Time to hit mids and see how I can make this happen with ol Choppa (claw/DA). As soon as I force myself to leave my praetorians alone.
