sessions Posted July 29, 2009 Report Posted July 29, 2009 Hi. As I'm sure we all know, Stalkers are ... screwed. Low HP, low weight, countered by one skill (FCP.. my mortal enemy), and they do not have a weapon with an option for str build. So lets let them backslide in WoE. I do not know if this is even possible, to allow stalkers but not sinxes to backslide in WoE. But if it is possible, then I am sure it would help. If only a little bit. And if I see someone say "overpowered" ... Are you afraid a stalker's going to rush your emp? :O Also, it has been discussed (I think?) But stalkers need a sword. Just have it be the same as the LK 1h sword for simplicity. Tell me your thoughts. Edit: Give stalkers moar health. We have teh fail hp.
Ophelia Posted July 29, 2009 Report Posted July 29, 2009 No, just because Stalker needs working on that doesn't mean they should be allowed to backslide during WoE.
rinrin Posted July 29, 2009 Report Posted July 29, 2009 no backslide pls, maybe just give them a sword >:
Ethereal Posted July 29, 2009 Report Posted July 29, 2009 13055# A sword made from titanium, design exclusively for the Forsaken Stalker. Indestructible (except in upgrade attempts). Increase damage on DemiHuman enemies by 7%, Str + 5, Dex + 5. Class :^777777 Sword^000000 Attack :^777777 120^000000 Weight :^777777 130^000000 Weapon Level :^777777 3^000000 Required Level :^777777 255^000000 Applicable Job :^777777 Stalker^000000 And the daggers did have 4 slots in the fix I made, see below. I could go on and on about new elite weapon additions/fixes, they're already made up a long long time ago, just not made public. I believe the Stalker Sword is going to be implemented soon. Nobody knows when soon is, so who knows.

Sensation Posted July 29, 2009 Report Posted July 29, 2009 Stalkers are one of the fastest moving characters, I can't see why they would need a boost through backsliding (would affect Assassin Cross as well and we all know, they do not need such a thing as a boost). A nicer starting HP would be great, the HP mod is fairly decent, just like with most other classes, but the starting HP isn't.
sessions Posted July 30, 2009 Author Report Posted July 30, 2009 No, just because Stalker needs working on that doesn't mean they should be allowed to backslide during WoE. Reason being? Offhand rejection is always wonderful. Stalkers are one of the fastest moving characters, I can't see why they would need a boost through backsliding (would affect Assassin Cross as well and we all know, they do not need such a thing as a boost). A nicer starting HP would be great, the HP mod is fairly decent, just like with most other classes, but the starting HP isn't. I believe my point was missed. I can SL, give myself agi, speed pot and move faster than backslide. I am not looking for a way to move fast, but rather an evasive skill that would be nice to have. Oh well, Sensation answered my main question indirectly: It is not possible to enable backslide for only stalkers?
Sensation Posted July 30, 2009 Report Posted July 30, 2009 Nope it isn't. So the stalkers will have to stick with the SL buff & speed boosting buffs. And you do or do not agree with the Health? As I'm currently testing stalker on legit and it seems a bit troublesome to survive as good as an Assassin Cross, bow stalker, hybrid and caster are the builds I use(d).
CombatMuffins Posted July 30, 2009 Report Posted July 30, 2009 Aff... why wasn't informed my main class is a weak class haha. Idk my stalker does great damage switching from thana to incant ;x
orthikuss Posted July 31, 2009 Report Posted July 31, 2009 how about disable snap for champ, so they can traped! /gg

I completely agree with the health. Its rather difficult to survive much. I generally am on an int + strip gtb build :D But I occasionally do BB + Double Strafe build and my hp sucks on both builds no matter how much I dedicate my stat points to vit (thus weakening any hopes for decent damage).

nero_Pr!esT Posted July 31, 2009 Report Posted July 31, 2009 Misfits helm is sexy>: it doesnt have that ghey gold in it lol....>.>...<.< ohright the topic! i never rly play stalker cause most of the time i gotta chase walk away from some classes or they would tear me in two with simple atks. I also use some of the same gear as my other classes that take more then it would a stalker to kill them. example is my sinx versus a lk wouldnt die from five bbs like my stalker does with the same gear and vit.
sessions Posted August 1, 2009 Author Report Posted August 1, 2009 Movement for raising stalkers HP. All say "Aye" if in favor. Say "Aye" if not in favor too.
Shield Posted August 3, 2009 Report Posted August 3, 2009 Backsliding during WoE. - Rejected - The weapon and HP modifiers have been discussed and are being worked on.
