If I were to hazard a guess, I'd say Clarion, though that doesn't help you until Incarnate stuff.

If memory serves correctly they are a flat image stored in the .pigg files. I haven't played around with them since live, but I feel like I was able to make some minor adjustments to some of them in photoshop.

when you change builds, all powers go on recharge, not just temp powers. I suspect this has to do with preventing people from switching builds to get powers to recharge faster.

I would suggest checking out this thread

Another thought that I had, how is Spines/Fire? I haven't really decided what I want to play yet, just that I want to be able to do some AoE damage... my only other stalker was a BS/Nin and its lack of AoE is sorely disappointing.

Hi all, I decided to give Stalkers another chance and decided on Elec/Shield for the AoE potential. Here's what I came up with build-wise, any comments would be appreciated.

Looks like you're willing to spend a lot of inf on your build, but you haven't quite reached perma-PA, here's my build which has Perma-PA after Spiritual T4. You could easily substitute Teleport for Fly and Superior Invisibility for Steamy Mist if you wanted to keep those powers.

yeah, I've seen this too. IMO this should be changed to a new pet being summoned and the old one dying, much like what happens when you re-summon Dark Servant before he expires.

Reactive is a 2.5% -res debuff, hardly anything to write home about, but I still think it is one of the better ones.

Illusion isn't great with containment... you've got Flash and Blind and that's it. Your damage is more going to come from Phantom Army than from yourself, here's my experiences: Illusion/Dark - my only Illusion 50. I've got Perma-PA on this build so she really shines on both teams and solo. I took Shadow Fall and Group Invisibility (since Shadow Fall and Superior Invisibility are mutually exclusive). My set up is PA/Spectral Terror/Flash then Tar Patch then just Blind->Spectral Wounds->Blind Illusion/TA - Currently about 33. This build I don't plan on IOing out beyond commons. Entangling Arrow helps you set up some additional containment, especially on EBs/AVs which are affected by PToD. My plan is to take everything in both Illusion and Trick Arrow mostly because everything in both sets is solid. Illusion/Storm - Currently 20. I'm planning on a build that will get Perma-PA. This build is all about havoc, while my Ill/Dark has -KB slotted in Phantasm, this guy is all for knocking back. Freezing Rain, Tornado, Lightning Storm, Phantom Army, Water Spout are/will be my damage. Taking Steamy Mist and Group Invisibility for the same reason as Illusion/Dark.

I just ran a x2 mission, used EMP Arrow 5 times and out of that only 1 enemy got the Tesla Cage animation, meaning it is far from what it used to be where every x2 mob would have at least 1-2 enemies that got proc'd

I haven't thoroughly tested it after the changes, but yes, I can confirm that the Lockdown proc used to be *very* good in EMP Arrow.

Ouroboros also helps.

Doom is correct, but to add to it, it will suppress if you enter combat.

Is Granite Armor considered sub-optimal? For some reason I love that power and love building builds around its weaknesses.

This is what I have for a Tanker Stone/Staff, it should translate fairly well, though you'll lose the capped Def/Res because of lower numbers in brutes. It does remove basically all penalties from Granite though (it still has -5% damage, but Form of the Body should take care of that)

that did it perfectly, Thanks!!!

it just changes the basic stance you have standing/moving around.

Should be a quick question, but I'm not sure exactly how to do it. Crystal Armor in Stone Armor really grates me because the sound just loops forever. I know you can just place a silent sound in a directory somewhere to stop this from happening. So, my question: what is this directory (I'm using the Homecoming Launcher) and what do I need to name the file? Thanks!

Do use enhancement Catalysts, then you'll keep your set bonus for the entire range of when an IO is available (ie: Miracle will keep your set bonuses down to level 17), but you will also benefit from higher IO values in the later game (ie: Miracle IOs will go up to level 40 value) That being said, just buying Attuned IOs from the market is the better option and save your catalysts for Winters and ATOs since they can be made superior.

You can TP Acid Mortar/FFG/Seekers You cannot TP Poison Trap/Trip Mine/Time Bomb

So here's the thing about Granite... you can cap Resistance, Defense, and overcome all of the penalties of the form. If they remove/lessen the penalties they would probably have to lower the base Defense/Resistance, which I don't want to see.

Not correct, Knockback is away from the caster, not the point of impact. If it was point of impact, Explosive Blast from Energy Blast would send enemies flying in a Sphere, as opposed to straight away from the caster.

There are two... Twilight Grasp offers a minimal amount of -regen and Howling Twilight offers a large amount.

While we're at it, can we get Ninjutsu tankers?
