Righto! It doesn't break hide, just be aware that it and lightning rod DO aggro mobs to you, so pop yourself a purple or three before initiating that chain if you want the crit on your third attack.
Which had better not be AS. Since neither attack breaks hide, if you do successfully pull that chain off you'll get the interruptible version of AS (once the changes go live) and - since the spawn is still aggro'd to you you will be interrupted unless you're softcapped or have a purple buzz.

So it would be more like: BU, LR, AS (ATE proc'ed), SA, [TS]?
*Also: Since the reason behind this is because its a pet(?); does that mean slotting the FF proc won't benefit [m]e?

You probably don't want to do BU + LR and then AS because you will still be hidden. It only works if all the mobs are knocked down so you don't get interrupted. I do that when I solo.|

BU + LR + Thunderstrike (or a Patron AoE) + whatever chain you want.
I used to do BU + LR + Chain because the jump ends when the target is dead and critical Thunderstrike sometimes leaves the enemy with very little health left (which means the follow up Chain won't jump much unless I find another target with more health left). I think they've fixed it that the jump still happens when the target is dead.
PS: And yes, slotting FF proc won't benefit you because it's a pet that does the damage.
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.
Thanks guys (and about the FF proc)

I went with Elec/Energy/Leviathan back in the day.
With Water Sprout not breaking hide either, you can actually easily pull off the hidden AS.
With the changes to Energy, the combo really works well (added rech for the AOE you have; easy to softcap all types but psi with non purple IOs; rech debuff resistance and a good heal)
@Viper Kinji
Currently working on:
Turtle Snapper - SD/MA/Ice Tanker
on my elec/energy guy i usually do a BU->LR->thunderstrike to get a crit with thunderstrike
I was reading, on the forums, that Lightning Rod didn't break Hide; would the same be true for Spring Attack?
I'm looking at BU, LR, SA, AS (with ATE proc), TS chain for an Electric?
[and a suggestion for a good Secondary to go with Electric/ ?]
