Smoke Flash and Moonbeam are both pretty terrible. I'd drop those.

moonbeam is there for the manticores set, which gives added ranged def (good for /nin) added recharge (good for any build) and added damage (good for stalkers)
Smoke flash is an PBAoE placate, and helps out alot when surrounded, which a non AoE stalker just can't handle.
Actually, EM/Nin does quite well when surrounded, even without smoke flash. You simply have to leverage your stuns and placates. Here's a build I put together not too long ago. It caps out your defense without needing a bad snipe or smoke flash. It also never runs out of end, ever.

Using your build as a base, heres what i came up with. It caps melee/range, with 40% AoE def, higher damage then your build, slightly lower acc, but i can actually use tough for those hard fights (17% resistance might help out, especially with my heal) I'll have higher recharge, and i have shadow meld for when the -def debuffs start piling in, plus the elude clone.

Hey guys,
After i19 I respec'ed my stalker into combat jumping, stealth, and grant invis (for extra defense, and better recharge via LoTGs) But I'm just not happy with the way shes working out. Should i got the tough/weave route on her instead? I like all my attacks (even barrage) and i'm not a huge fan of caltrops, but I'm not really sure what else to do with this build. Any advise would be great
