stalkers and EPIC powers

Quite new to stalkers. Have a StJ/WP to level 37 but need to decide between BODY MASTERY and BLAZE MASTERY. Have never seriously IO'd a toon or gone Incarnate so I just want to know which of these EPIC sets would better suit a non-IO'd non-Incarnate StJ/WP stalker.

Grateful any advice. Haven't been able to find opinions on this on the forums to date.

For non-IO/non-Incarnate toons I'd definitely go Body Mastery. Since WP Stalkers lose Quick Recovery and StJ can be a lil.. End-hungry, anywhere you can pick up extra Blue Bar is a good thing.

While Physical Perfection isn't QR, it is decent, especially slotted. Superior Conditioning is having a 2nd Atlas Accolade at 35.

Blaze Mastery really just adds more attacks, and you already have enough as a melee toon. Melt Armor in the Epic pool is not worth it, debuff wise, the only reason to grab it would be iff you want ranged attacks in Fire Blast and Char and Fireball.

My SJ/Ice is level 50 now. He took Body for more endurance and I really don't have many slots left.

Sometimes I feel I should have taken a patron aoe. SJ's aoe is quite limited. High damage but the radius is just not that big.

I can't decide yet. With /Ice, I do have several ways to get endurance back. Maybe I'll respec.


What's left is to normalize all Assassin Strikes and improve Stalker's old sets (Claw, MA and EM)! You don't need to bring back the missing PbAoE attack. You just need to make the existing ones better! For example, make Slice a WIDER and LONGER cone.
