MapleTyger Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 (edited) I don't know if this is just me, but Stalker has become more of a nuisance than an actual threat, or even one that's fun to deal with. I mean, his constant use of teleporting us back to him has glitched my game numerous occasions (even crashing it when he decided to teleport me into one of those giant Orokin glowing orbs with the rings), he can't hit me for anything (seriously, parkour 2.0 makes it impossible for his arrows to hit; try it), and he spawns at terrible times (missions almost already over, I'm going after a capture target, etc.) To be fair though, the only assassin I really think is actually interesting and still threatening is Zanuka Hunter because there actually feels like a bit's at stake. It's not super easy because of the mobility and the homing missles ZH has, and being defeated means getting set back a little. Stalker? Literally just spend a revive. Not a big deal. It's gotten to the point where I'd let him "serve justice", revive, and get on with better things to do. In short: I get nervous when ZH spawns, annoyed when Stalker spawns.

The_Raall Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 (edited) actually i saw him using his skills for 1st time few days ago... and i have playing around 2 years, that only should say that he needs total rework.

MapleTyger Posted August 23, 2015 Author Share Posted August 23, 2015 (edited) actually i saw him using his skills for 1st time few days ago Wow, that's pretty lucky. I've literally never not seen him teleport or slash dash in an encounter. A total rework is hopefully in order.

Culaio Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 actually i saw him using his skills for 1st time few days ago... and i have playing around 2 years, that only should say that he needs total rework. I heard that he got buff recently that made him more dangerous, uses more abilities and stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tocorro Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 I heard that he got buff recently that made him more dangerous, uses more abilities and stuff. His abilities changed, yup. He goes total invisible (loki with black energy style), he has some kind of Oberon Reckoning version. Don't know what else, saw those two from the new ones.

ryconn Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Well once I had met the stalker in the middle of a run he for some reason decided to play smart so when I ran to gather distance he used pull so I shoot him he then fire an arrow at me the uses slash dash and wipes my frame out. He was a danger then I got good mods that is the problem he has to be balanced between both high teir and low tier players which would be easy enough. To do so would to be alter his level by calculaing a level based on the squad's conclave or equipment level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)Zenurixx Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 He needs rework for sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaysus41 Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 I don't understand why they keep stapling new abilities on him for no apparent reason. Maybe to make him more threatening to veteran players? Idk, hes been little more than a speed bump for the past 2 years for me, even with his new toys. My wishlist for stalker rework? Add some fight to him, and cut out the cheese. That's all that's needed really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faiznorizan Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 (edited) you're kidding with the zanuka right. most of the time it dies before it can move right after it spawns ._.I agree with the stalker though i kinda get excited only because I'm still hoping he drops his Hate blueprints. Also have not seen him use abilities on the very rare occasions he spawns to claim a bounty ._. (only to always fail, sad)EDIT:He used to spawn and do this,and ppl were crying for a nerf.

Hypernaut1 Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 He at least needs a better entrance. hes not too much of a stalker if he announces himself and slowly appears in front of everyone. We should feel stalked when stalked by stalker. The manic does a better job at stalking. He should be like a slower, more powerful and calculated manic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaotyke Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 (edited) 1-shot him with your powerful gun and he is easy and not scary at all. Fight him with a low level equipment and Mods and he is Powerful and Scary as hell. He spawns at least at level 30, if you dont have any mods in a gun you are leveling, be ready to chip his health bit-by-bit and dodge a LOT.

True and if you don't kill him fast enough he will show you what abilities he got on him and when he does that you will cry! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmptyDevil Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Zanuka Hunter is the easiest imo. It's the only assassin that hasn't killed me and definitely feels weaker than Stalker and G3. Stalker can still make me nervous sometimes because he can't be CC'd and his damage is pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kuestenjung Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 still threatening is Zanuka Hunter What? Zanuka hunter was allways the weakest of them all and never threatening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zereleth Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Stalker was pretty creepy for me back in the days (single digit update days), my first encounter with him creeped me the heck out when I saw the lights flickering and the whispering was icing on the cake. I couldn't even do Solo missions anymore because of that (the atmosphere back then was much different than it is today, darker rooms and shiz). But now that we have all these one shot weapons he's not that threatening anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(XBOX)G R A V O C Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Stalker actually owns me a lot. He always stuns me and goes to work with melee. Doesn't help that I use frames that are power focused with no redi/Vit/steel fiber Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)edubluvpack Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Stalker is pretty menacing when trying to level up weapons. He never shows up for me when I have my t4 loadouts. Only when I have my unranked miter(happened last night). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuestenjung Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 He recently got a few new skills, like invincibilty, Oberon reckoning and he can even revive himself with a small amount of HP, but nevertheless he should scale with your conclave rating like G3 and most bosses do.

(PSN)EvilFlowerChild Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Yeah he is scary and hard only if you're below MR8 , off topic but today i did some missions on eris and the juggernaut spawned and THAT was scary , not the fight itself because he was fairly ok if anything, but those screams, damn , he gave me the chills. I expected him to be as big as he was in the black seed alert though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FTFY He uses Ash's Smoke Screen and he cant revive himself because by implying reviving it means his HP reaches 0, when it gets to 10% he kneels and runs. Unless you mean when we get him with an overkill and he gets downed like any other player but vanishes after 5 seconds or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soju. Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Well he still gives the new players a hard time. Not the veterans though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
