Has Stalker Street Justice been compensated for the loss of Shin Breaker?
I was thinking about it, and I think what they should of done was made Placate a combo builder!
Placate (1 Combo Point) -> Assassin Strike ( 2 Combo Points) -> Spinning Strike -> WIN! \o/

Very nice suggestion! considering the non-stalker buildup equivalent gives 3 combo points and AS only two that's actually a really elegant way to create stronger parity between them.

Thank you everyone at Paragon and on Virtue. When the lights go out in November, you'll find me on Razor Bunny.

Were you online when they buffed stalker crit% in teams? Because there were posters on the scrapper boards crying that this infringed on their role and that now, a. Stalkers were OP, and b. they deserved the same buff, but more.
Meh, I'd love to see the day when someone says Stalkers are overpowered.

I think my favourite quote from that whole thread was 'Well, we can Solo AVs, so we don't need more survivability.'
This was suggested during beta.
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!

Why must you make us hurt?
Why wasn't it implemented? How early/late into Beta was it suggested? I only got into Beta with only a few days to test StJ so didn't even get to really check it out, and even then I went Scrapper, as I was planning StJ/Regen and imo Scrapper was the only way to go with that combo.

Keep in mind that AS, with its 15 second recharge, is going to be up more often than BU with a 90 second recharge. So over time AS is going to generate more combo points than build up even if it only gives you two per use. That, combined with the fact that stalkers get a full build up (80% to the scrappers 62.5%) suggest the dev's considered a full 3 combo points from AS (or AS + Placate) to be to much.

62.5% is the damage boost from Aim.
Combat Readiness doesn't give the normal 100% damage on build up that Scrappers have.

Okay, I see what Eric is saying.
But, oh well, good enough.
