Welcome back! I recently returned as well and it’s been great fun so far. With DA you need to really slot your attacks with End Red as I find it is attacks that drain your endurance the most especially a set like katana which is relatively fast activating and recharging. If you are using basic IOs I would slot your attacks with Acc x2, Dam x 3 and End x1 If you have kismet +hit then you might get away with just 1x Acc. If you need some INF to help you along send me a DM and I can mail you some.

I really think you are spot on it’s all psychology. I get annoyed with myself when I run up to a mob line up and wait for the animation and whiff I completely miss. I am like what the hell. It’s a stationary target and I am supposed to be a super assassin lol.

Still learning stalkers but it’s been great so far. One question I would like to ask the stalker community. I am missing a lot with AS from hide. I mean more than I would expect. It doesn’t really matter since I don’t reveal myself after a miss but it’s very odd that I miss so much. Is there a mechanic or a quirk I am missing? I have 58% accuracy and this is against +1 and +2 mobs.

I always favored the scrapper for melee characters and never understood the point of stalkers, viewing them merely as weaker scrappers who preferred stealth to direct combat. However, this perception has changed dramatically. Due to a character concept I had I rolled a BS/SR scrapper and levelled him to 28, but became disenchanted by the mediocre damage output, which many NPCs resisted. Curiosity led me to the scrapper forums, where I read about the superior performance of BS when used by stalkers. Encouraged, I decided to give it a try. Following the advice on the forums, I invested in two ATO procs, and the result was astounding. The damage output was phenomenal, and with the ATO procs, the character felt incredibly powerful and enjoyable. This stalker could not only match but surpass my scrapper in every aspect. In one notable encounter with a large mob, the Build Up proc activated four times, resulting in a spectacular display of critical hits and big orange numbers. Now, I am a complete convert—I absolutely love stalkers. They offer the ability to stealth, engage in combat effectively, and deliver tremendous damage, making them thrilling to play. I wish I tried them earlier

Thank you very much for your comprehensive explanation of the difference of the two. Really insightful and I think you are spot on. I feel that Necro plays a lot better overall and you can tell the update is well thought out and has really rounded them out. Demons have more AOE and can finish large mobs quicker but definitely not as safe. On missions with difficult mobs with two bosses or more I faceplant more often. I hope demons get looked at for next update.

So I recently levelled a Necro/Dark to lvl 50 and I am now doing the same for Demons/Dark and currently sitting at 47. I tend to do +3/6 from around level 30 and I have to say I am having a rougher time with Demons. I am face planting a lot more especially missions with 2 or more Longbow bosses in the same mob. I don’t know what it is but I expected an easier ride than Necro. I think the difference is the constant debuff from Necro henchman and Soul extraction is so strong vs Hell on Earth. i am curiously what are people experiences and if there are any tips for demons?

Malta Sappers are my bane. They slow me down massively and resulted in quite a few hospital visits if I don’t plan properly so it also depends on who you are facing also.

Pure solo that can do most content and varied difficulties settings I would say mastermind. Has all the tools needed as it’s pretty straight forward to play but you might get bored as it’s the minions that doing the killing.

Does anyone know if Demons will get changes similar to other Pets' powers in Issue 27 P5 - i.e. making enchant demons and Abyssal Empowerment able to buff the secondary powers of pets? Thanks and apologies if this has already been discussed but I cannot find anything in search.

Can someone help with a Guyver custume, I am struggling to get it close enough to the anime. I am thinking of making him Claws/Bio armour or MA/Bio scrapper

Thanks a lot

Can I ask which price of mark of supremacy and SCotMM you used?

Thank you very much. I will test the changes you suggested and feedback

Any thoughts on improvement on mb build?
