Kaho or Valk for PvP Stalker?

[Papercut the Madhatter]

I'm wondering what you're planning to do after you fs someone to kill them. XD

...You could be oh so very kind and tell me what you're suppose to do.
I just thought you start spamming DS or something.

I've never PvP'd before, but my cousin said that the most fun class to do it with was the Stalker.

Well, you could do a lot of different things. That's what makes stalker awesome. You aren't going to be able to deal more dps than a sniper with a bow, but with a sherwood and vulture's eye you can get a lot of range. You can't do more damage with sg than a HW, but you can chasewalk. Stalker's are really versatile, so depending on your gears and what you want to do, you could have almost limitless options.

If you're planning on being a full strip stalker, you're going to want a lot of dex. So if you have enough job levels, going a caster/full strip stalker would be a viable option. I personally copy spear of ice since you can spam it like crazy with 190 aspd and unlike JT you aren't pushing people off of your screen. But, that's just me. Depends on what you have and what you want to do though.

So.. Chase them with that one skill, FS them, then spam Spear of Ice/SG?

[Callysto]

You can do that, but there are some classes you won't be able to fs unless you status them first to buy yourself some time. You aren't going to be able to fs a high dex class like bio/hp/hw/scholar/etc in one fs attempt. Sometimes you can't even fs them at all even though they aren't FCPd. .___.

Well, I'm sure I'll get it down.
Would you mind helping me with some of the cards/gear I need?
I mean, if it wouldn't trouble you.

[Callysto]

I wouldn't mind helping at all. Are you interested in cheaper stuff? :x and what do you have already?

I have absolutely nothing for a Stalker...
I'm currently trying to sell my Niff gears to fund one..
-cough-

[Callysto]

Well, do you have a 99/70 or at least 67 stalker? Or are you going to make one?

I have a level 1/1 Novice. >.<
But yeah, I planned on making one.

[Callysto]

Alright well, to be completely honest here, it's going to be hard to play a stalker in pvp without top tier gear/expensive stuff. Since most of your gear slots are going to be taken up by dex gear so you can get ic, which is going to make you extremely squishy. :< But I can give you some suggestions for some gears that will help you level as a caster stalker and a start in pvp.

You're going to want either
2x sting gloves(+5 dex each), or 2x sting orlean's gloves.(+6 dex each)
a stem worm muffler (+5 dex)
hasty (Moonlight Flower) shoes (+5 dex and fast walk)
rocker armor (+1 dex) (Untill you can get to job lvl 67 and get all of your dex bonuses as a stalker)
Kaho
there's a lot of options for mid headgears, depends on what you want really
weapon wise using a bazerald for caster leveling can help. Or you can just use a bow or a dagger doesn't really matter.

As you can see, you waste a lot of gear getting dex.

a more expensive and ideal gear set for pvp would be
2x celebration rings or 2x sting brys
a raydric and devi garment of your choice. I like using wool scarfs
dl sleips
a wind marc, ghostring, evil druid, pest armor
kaho
mid could be a number of things, I generally use an orc hero so I don't stun.
gtb and toad valk
and a sherwood. :<

So, I need like.. 2000mil... DDD:

[Callysto]

:/ Yeaaah, sort of. To be able to tank hits and actually survive long enough to strip someone... kind of. :x I mean, you could still try with the less expensive gear set, but it's going to be a lot harder. :/

Do you PvP?

[Callysto]

Not anymore, no. Everyone just FCPs or relogs since they can't bw out anymore. Full strip is generally frowned upon and people get pissed at you for stripping them. They'll KOS you if you fs them while they're trying to duel.

Well, when you were PvPing, what did you do personally?
