My first Stalker

Hi everyone. This is my very first character I made about 2 years ago when I first joined. I've got a bit of a soft spot for playing him, and have tweaked his build quite often. He is very fun to play but I have a feeling I could get a bit more out of him but just not sure how, so does anyone have any advice?

I get a bit lost with mids, but here is the export:

Thanks in advance!

First of all, read about ED. More then three of the same IO is vastly wasted, see slotting in Shadow Dweller. Hover over the powers and see the totals. You have a number of powers that go over 20% beyond ED cap and you are using purples to do so. Ouch. Clock of Fear goes over the ED cap for tohit debuff by nearly 50%! You have attacks slotted for their secondary effects more than damage, ie Lunge and Impale. For Dark Blast I would rather have a accurate tohit debuff damage proc versus a proc for +tohit. You have Dark Regen with a single heal slotted. It needs acc and really end reduc since it needs to hit and it has an end cost of 33.8. Heal would be the last thing to slot since it gives such a huge return based on number of targets you hit. Put the +chance for end proc from Theft of Essence in there to help offset it's end cost. It can proc enough against bigger mobs to actually give you more end than it cost.

Frankly, if you want to slot more than 3 purples, you're probably going to go well beyond the ED cap.

Nice! I thought he could be doing better - I will have a play around and bear in mind the ED stuff, see what I can come up with.

Thanks guys.

I'll restate it say that if you are going to slot purples, you either slot one of them due to being a proc, or you slot enough of them to get the worthwhile set bonus, ie 10% recharge. To six slot a power with 3 purples and three from another set is a misuse of both sets.

On certain characters (mainly theoretical WP tanks I have never made in game) it makes sense to use 3 on the pet purp, and 2 sets of 3 on the range damage purp with 3 on devastation to get max +hp and +regen. Those builds usually don't go for the +rech bonuses. But again, that's just me playing around in Mid's, no idea if that would be useful actually transfered in game.
