Stalker or Widow?

I want a build that has its stealthy properties...so either a stalker or a widow. I know widow's are easily seen and all that, but they're still fun. I also was wondering, for a stalker if Energy Aura is any good in zone? Same with Martial arts, and ninjitsu. Any comments on widows or stalkers of any kind are helpful, thanks!

lol thanks for the help. But widows are decent for zone, correct? And I am going to do a stalker, most likely something/elec. Maybe MA? What are good primaries...

anything/anything/sharks.

Your attack chain is either shark-->run or shark-->phase-->run.

solo pvp?

Cooler than every single owl EVER.

good stalkers use AS, then followup with shraks, but there are very few good stalker players left in the game.

Stalker all the way. Widows can be very hard to kill but their damage is seldom threatening.

I have an EA stalker, outside of overload you might as well not have a secondary. In overload against psi blasters you might as well not have a secondary. If you can learn to survive on an EA stalker playing something like a WP will seem stupidly easy.

Any Primary will work really, a nod goes to Claws, Elec, and Spines.

Claws gets 72 second base Build up. Elec gets double crit thunder strike. Spines has impale which is a quicker finisher than sharks if someone is trying to steal your kill.

In PvP 1.0 and in the early days of PvP 2.0, Widows could do repectable damage, however when they did a serious nerf to elusivity they also did a major nerf to VEAT damage, one or the other was fine being nerfed, but nerfing both damage AND elusivity, really neutered the VEAT's. this isn't to say their totally horrible in PvP. Their still not harmless in PvP, but they did go from being in the same class as say a decent blaster/ stalker/ scrapper/ SR type to a support/ team build. With that said, given enough Inf, they can be made decent, but that can be said for any build. A stalker can be made decent much more easier for pvp, with a less investment in Inf.

Good players were already using Forts as support/team builds.

Stalkers all the way unless your more into team pvp then id go widow but thats just my opinion
