Kusanagi Posted October 1, 2009 Report Posted October 1, 2009 "BB and such" Theres no "Such" , thats the only skill worth for stalkers, and have the same usefullness as for LK's but the diference is that Stalkers dont have HP mods as LK's. The damage output is only good in bow build wich means no shield, wich means 32k damage from sinx, wich means they are done for. Perhaps you will say "You can do ranged", no you cant. People will cloack in order to prevent ranged, and since we can only have one skill and we are forced to use a melee because its the only usefull we have. Once people are cloacked theres no way to uncloack them unless we get close enough to be killed. On top of that if for any reason we make it to strip someone they will simply run away and that is a fact. You stated you can survive asuras, then I supose you are on full reductions builds and worth for nothing more than magic and strip right?. What are you saying is the entire class is worthless for anything else than striping and helping gangs? If you need any more reasons tell me.
Apo Posted October 1, 2009 Report Posted October 1, 2009 I presume this come from someone who either fails at stalker or does t play stalker at all. 32k with bow? Dunno what you're using but stop doing so. Huge max is 11k on me, sinx is not even something I bother my only anoying threat is tarot and pallies. And maximal damage ouput isn't 32000 that's only what the client shows you.
Sensation Posted October 1, 2009 Report Posted October 1, 2009 Bow BB still displays above 32k damage, it's only non-skill hits that display the 2^15(short integer) damage cap. Stalkers are 'ok' with their health (got nearly 230k on my current stalker, but quite some vit is pumped in), they could use some compensation, but there are other classes who do need it harder though. Anyway, preserve still could be made as an undispellable skill I guess as it's their most reliant one.
Apo Posted October 1, 2009 Report Posted October 1, 2009 Then stalker link would need a new effect, since right now it makes preserve undispellable
Kusanagi Posted October 1, 2009 Report Posted October 1, 2009 Read what I said. Sinx-does-huge-damage-if-using-bow. I never said Stalkers cant do more than 30k. Besides you are changing the subject.
Terroryst Posted October 2, 2009 Report Posted October 2, 2009 It only does 11k if you're wearing full reducts.
Guest icy Posted October 3, 2009 Report Posted October 3, 2009 I default gtb on stalker, unless fighting a champ.
*Kevin* Posted October 3, 2009 Report Posted October 3, 2009 Their link is overpowered yeah but is fine , or at most since sinx's link was nerfed , at most you could want to reduce the movment speed bonus while using chase walk , taking off immunity to dispell is too much. Bow stalkers wont live long in anycase, thats not the good build for them.
Kusanagi Posted October 3, 2009 Report Posted October 3, 2009 A stalker doesnt seem to have any chance to pvp at all in this server. The best that can be done is wait until theyre fcp is gone, either fighting them or making time, and even then 99% of the players will run away instantly once they are Striped.
Apo Posted October 3, 2009 Report Posted October 3, 2009 (edited) Lol true they always warp away right when they see the successful strip, so lame. Also, Close Coffline is broke, anyone can run away form it no problem, you shouldnt be able to backslide, bb away or snap away from a Close Coffline.. Edited October 3, 2009 by Apo
*Kevin* Posted October 3, 2009 Report Posted October 3, 2009 Thats the official effect and its fine like this. Yes i noticed an huge amount of runners / cowards lately on the server .. so much that makes me angry and makes me want to kos everyone. They arent useless even without gtb , there is one build which would work nicely , and it did well in the past.. but seems everyone just goes for icespear or bb , both really weak without strip.
Sensation Posted November 25, 2009 Report Posted November 25, 2009 Soul Link, using GTB, maybe not completely viable options, yet they are available, sorry to disappoint the stalkers, but.. DENIED.
