Darkfreack Posted October 31, 2013 Posted October 31, 2013 o so now we all have to use frost all the time? great solution Hes not saying that, hes commenting about how that is the only skill the stalker can't remove for the fact its not a self casting buff, its a deployed skill.
DJ_Tyranny Posted October 31, 2013 Posted October 31, 2013 Huh... the Stalker came after one of my teammates during the Event and he didn't seem any different to me. I did, however, notice a change a few weeks ago when he began to use Slash Dash immediately on spawn. He'd mow you down before you even knew what was happening, no matter how prepared you were. I mean not even time to get off a single shot and his spawn smoke hadn't even dissipated yet. I don't care. The creepier/scarier/more threat the better I say. That's what makes him so awesome as a mini-boss!
breakandburn Posted October 31, 2013 Posted October 31, 2013 Stalker showed up in a mission today. Couldn't tell him apart from the other warframes in my party, didn't know what to shoot at. Then he was suddenly gone. So he's more confusing than anything else now. Didn't he use to have the huge particle effects attached to him? Since they've added the BP drop to him I've also had exactly zero drops of anything. It's ridiculous. If I'm solo he was able to one-shot all my warframes so far with his dash, sometimes I don't even seem to run into him at all and when I'm in a party I don't even know where he is between the others. It's basically just a guaranteed loss of a revive and nothing else to me. At best he's mildly annoying, most of the time I don't even notice him except for the flicker on the screen. They could throw him out completely and I wouldn't miss him.

Also, you have half an hour to prepare, so prepare and get close to something, or even better, on crates or whatever.

Darkfreack Posted October 31, 2013 Posted October 31, 2013 I just encountered him and defeated his new buffed &#!. If you want to see how simple he still is to kill with a half modded frame, I can post the video. (no audio sadly :<)

Also, you have half an hour to prepare, so prepare and get close to something, or even better, on crates or whatever. Possible, black seems to be quite popular. But the Grineer interiors are genereally rather dark, everybody was Kung Fu fighting, in fact it was a little bit frightening... Seriously though, It was dark, the warframes were running around and the bots were running all over the place too. So the dark man blended into all the other dark silhouettes on the screen. Mind you, I had dynamic lights turned off since I was playing on my laptop. Turned in on for the rank up test to level 9, after that I noticed that in the login screen with the golden key you are supposed to see Vor. Without dynamic lights turned on he was pitchblack. So maybe that was relevant too.
bobafetthotmail Posted October 31, 2013 Posted October 31, 2013 At this point it's either your brightness setting set too low (I would not blame you... Nova MPrime spam!) or a graphics glitch. Did you have a Volt killing all lamps with its ultimate ability? I find that thing pretty damn annoying. eum half an hour? i do hope you were exagerating while knowin it cause that's a far cry from how much time we really have, a minute or 2 at most from first light bliker. considering that it's rare that a mission lasts more than 10 minutes (other than defence)....... it was an obvious exaggeration. how exactly was he buffed? He can now debuff invisibility, Iron Skin, and a slew of other abilities. http://warframe.wikia.com/wiki/Dispell <--- read this for more info
bear38122 Posted October 31, 2013 Posted October 31, 2013 I think he is fine now....he just needs new weapons....yeah i like the thrill when he is after me but it was nice to have something to reward me for defeating him
OricSharp Posted October 31, 2013 Posted October 31, 2013 I really just wish it felt like there was a point ot the Stalker - difficult, easy, it just feels like he's lacking some kind of oomph.
Mainabi Posted November 1, 2013 Posted November 1, 2013 A little bit before the event started, I think. oh he deals more dmg that for sure but he's still weak :S
Gravefire Posted November 1, 2013 Posted November 1, 2013 Can't believe someone is acutally asking for a stalker nerf. What in the world has happened to people block/ dodge skills in the last month or two.
Completionist Posted November 1, 2013 Posted November 1, 2013 I like him more as a threat than a easy bodybag for some gothic weapons. With him being hard to kill makes people actually scared when the screen flashes. That's what it should be like.

They could throw him out completely and I wouldn't miss him. This is pretty much how it's been for me. If there are people in the game with me that are high level, it's no big deal. By myself, though? No way. He's way higher level than anything I can do yet, and he'll spawn as a level 39+ guy that's hard to see and can one shot you when he appears while you're on a map fighting guys who are level 5-10. I would guess that the people saying he's fine or weak are people who have been playing a long time and have high level weapons, mods, and warframes. If you don't have any of those things, you're pretty much boned when he shows up. His little screen effect looks more like a graphics glitch than something to let you know he's there, too.
Wolfstorm18 Posted November 1, 2013 Posted November 1, 2013 Nerfer gang crying over folkloric Stalker.
Spearfish Posted November 1, 2013 Posted November 1, 2013 Wait there's still a stalker? I barely see him after grinding bosses.
Scar.Heart Posted November 1, 2013 Posted November 1, 2013 -Drops Vortex and proceeds to wail on Stalker's trapped &#!- He has his weaknesses, buddy. You just gotta find them.
LazerusKI Posted November 1, 2013 Posted November 1, 2013 -Drops Vortex and proceeds to wail on Stalker's trapped &#!- He has his weaknesses, buddy. You just gotta find them. Acrid laughs at him...shoot at him while he is invulnerable and keep running, the DoT kills him...
Skynin Posted November 1, 2013 Posted November 1, 2013 This guy killed me. Even if it was ME who was killed HIM before always!Very interesting to fight with him. But... Slash Dash drops again?!
Sinbolt Posted November 1, 2013 Posted November 1, 2013 I still use my Shade Sentinel to get close to him...
