Saikochoro Posted March 11, 2020 Posted March 11, 2020 (edited) Hello Stalkers! I just recently started using MIDs and build planning. I have developed the following build for a Ninja Blade/Bio/Soul stalker. Not sure if it is similar to other builds that may already have been posted as I honestly didn't check. My goal was to soft cap S/L/E, have decent S/L resists, and have heal/aborb/regen take care of the rest. I achieved those goals and have a moderate amount of recharge built in. I also happened softcap negative and AOE and almost softcapped fire/cold as a by product of the slotting. Build has no purples, but does have both ATO sets. I took shadow meld mainly as a LOTG mule not to meet defense softcaps. Let me know what you guys think.

This is in offensive adaptation. Don't have any incarnates in the build at the moment. Hasten is on (63.8% recharge without hasten). Edit: Darn, I just realized a major flaw in the build. I had hide turned on with the above numbers and wasn't considering the suppressed defense when in combat. Here are the real numbers: A good 6% short on S/L and 4% on energy. On teams this will likely be shored up, but I will have to go back to the drawing board to see how I can make up the remaining amounts. Edited March 11, 2020 by Saikochoro
Croax Posted March 11, 2020 Posted March 11, 2020 That looks like a solid build. Maybe i will find some time tonight to look into it more detailed. For now i would like to propose you take a look at Mu Mastery. Moonbeam and Zapp deal the exact same amount of damage but you could get Ball Lightning, which is a nice AoE. You will find Ninja Blade to be an amazing set but will lack in terms of area damage from time to time. Divine Avalanche could mule the LotG from Shadow Meld and your slots wouldbe off a little bit. But i think it could be viable. More than just a Ninja - A Guide to Stalkers Croax's Tier List and Build Collection
Sgt. Terminus Posted March 11, 2020 Posted March 11, 2020 Hello, Here are two things to consider: 1. Bio is really weak vs energy so I also consider hitting the Energy soft cap a top priority with some much end game stuff blasting away at you with energy attacks. You could swap out the 3 Eff Mod's in DNA Siphon with 3 from Eradication (can add the damage proc for extra fun). You are not losing that much as you have many ways already to gain End. 2. I always try to break up Stalker's Guile to get more S/L Def and to minimize the recharge in the Assassin's "attack". Leave the hide proc and the 2 other minimal recharge ones from the set (Acc/Dam & Acc/Dam/End/Recharge) in Assassin's Blade and then add in some damage proc's and other sets to your own taste but watch the recharge, you want the Hide proc to go off as much as possible. Currently you have 95%+ recharge, way too much to get reliable proc's. You could then put the other 3 Stalker's Guile into Soaring Dragon for example, replacing the Kinetic Combat set and once you get the superior versions, each set of 3 will give you 5% S/L Def. 1

(I don't like wasted bonuses.) Got the damage incarnates no need fo survivability ones. 132,5% Recharge to have a good attack chain, Ninja Blade does not really need more recharge, in my opinion. Snipe and Lightning Ball from Mu Mastery with some good IO in it, so they hurt. More than just a Ninja - A Guide to Stalkers Croax's Tier List and Build Collection
Saikochoro Posted March 11, 2020 Author Posted March 11, 2020 That build looks great. Just looks pretty expensive. I was trying to make mine slightly more budget friendly. But I love my stalker so maybe I will bite the bullet, farm some cash, and take the plunge. It was either gonna be ninja blade/bio or StJ/bio. StJ might be stronger, but ninja blade definitely has style.
