Plz do tell your thoughts.

They will release a stalker like legendary soon enough I imagine. 

@CrystalDrew plz do respond.

I still play him...

I only mean that he is not as META as he was back then.

I agree but I have a feeling, Lark said "They will release a stalker like legendary soon enough I imagine.", is more likely to happen.

I'm a huge Stalker fan and it has been one of my bread and butter mechs. But while it is now limited in weapons it can run truly well (DLs being the big one) it still is effective mech. I run a 11k SP hangar and my Stalker DL12 is always part of that. I think people got too used to running it as a tank and for folks with a more careful play style it is still a solid mech.

I would much rather see them boost Tengu to Epic and buff its stats. No other mech does what it does. Its play style and role in one's hangar was unique. It has been a real loss for the game that is is not in the mix anymore

Hi! Thanks a lot for sharing your suggestions with us. For now, we don't have plans to change the Rarity for Stalker as the Mech meets its initial terms set by its Grade, but we will take your thoughts into account!

The old girl's still got it!! Particularly in FFA and especially on today's map, Freeside. I'll use it as my opener and I usually get Kill Leader at least, and sometimes can make the run for most or all of the match. Also a good opener on Atlas Foyer, though it only lasts a little while but usually can get Kill Leader before it dies. For the Red Shift map, I find it's a better backup closer, if my EMR Panther gets destroyed.

I think there's two things that make people feel Stalker got nerfed to hard. The first is ArcTorrents are less effective on it now (but Arcs are diminished regardless). The main thing though is that Stalker is trickier to run in CPC against maxed AI, because you need to go and seize beacons. In FFA, 5v5, and 2v2, it is still a dominant mech. Overall I think it is actually quite nicely balanced now, although against OP junk like Bastion that might not shine through.

He can't heal, at least not yet.

Stalker always should have been a glass cannon if we're being honest. Nevertheless, when a mech plays a certain way people want it to remain that way. So it still seems unfair for the mech to receive a NERF like this. And given the superior Orion has even more HP it's less fair.

stalker ain't just a glass cannon, it's a glass nuke. If it uses it's ability it will either die in a few clicks or it will turn you into scrap with whatever weapons it has, such as artillery, pulse cannons, misille racks, em rifles and disk launchers. The heal on kill with the ability active is nice but it's a bit of an overkill, even more on FFA
