What is the best setup for Stalker? I see him as replacing the light stealth mech, I forget the name. Currently ot has 2xJav6 to work on the Stalker tasks. Thinking of going MR 12 to get kills with no damage. In awhile I will put Jav 8s on him. So, opinions, experiences, dank memes? Lol.  |

I don't own one but I feel like the main weapon systems I am seeing other players use are Rocket Mortars and Disc Launchers. The current $6.99 deal for a 3-Star is a good one. I am tempted but I won't be able to put the resources into upgrading it.

I took advantage of a similar deal a few weeks ago. Getting the BP to upgrade it is slow and at lower levels the Stalker is pretty much a glass canon. There’s potential, but it will be a while before the Stalker is a regular in my hanger.

Then it's just credits and a-coins. |

This does remind me though that the upside to getting a Stalker now is that I could start stockpiling blueprints for it. Maybe if that deal rolls around again... |

The downside is that free players are going to need 3k acoins to obtain the rank 1 version of anything new with the crates, as the progress path is dead. |

The event crates are garbage. Only the outright purchase offer is ever worth it. Glad the Rank 3 version is recurring. I remembered that I had seen the price before, but not what rank it was at. |

I remembered that I had seen the price before, but not what rank it was at. The $7 offer is R3. They will sell items below their rarity's starting rank, but the only instance of an item starting at higher than it's rarity was the gauss 6 release crate, with it starting at R5. They're doing this to avoid the War Robots problem. People like Mayer had their foot in the door since the beginning. That's considered lost money now that the game is out of Beta and global. As crap as the release structure is now, it's still better than the path War Robots took with just power creeping/nerfing everything powerful out of the limelight every 6 or so months. |

I run mine with JR8 but only take it out for the Specialization Spree - and still couldn't complete it...
With JR8, it's like a Shadow with no stealth and extra punch once in a blue moon. I know with implants like the ability cooldown and JR reload reductions will allow me to probably fire 2 twice during one ability run, but that's a long way for me as I'm not upgrading my pilots or implants much yet.
I actually wish I'd gotten the Brickhouse instead to use as my "1 shot kill sucker punch" build. The damage bonus is the same with no incoming damage penalty but at a much reduced speed, but with heaps more HP and tons of stored BPs. I think in my case, there are probably more pros and cons for going BH. Oh well, I've gone this route and I'm gonna have to stick it out. I just won't play the Stalker much until I've at least R5'd it.

Stalker is a RARE level mech so it naturally would be starting at Rank 3. That gives EN12 so EN6 x 2 weapon load out work good and EN12 x 1 as well. If you are a veteran at this game, you should have some Rank 6 weapons and decent pilots. Rocket Mortar 12 on it works very well with Fei and gets achievements done for the mech (weapon one and killing without receiving damage). Jav6s gets another weapon achievement done and are indirect to save those precious HP. Rank 4 gets to EN16 and that is great for Arc 10 + 6 build out. Can get monster kill awards in some circumstances (4 kills within 5 seconds). It can also do a Railgun with corner shooting.
This is as far as I have gotten it. I know Disc Launchers are great on it but cannot speak to that weapon as I do not have it. Fun mech even at low rank. No need to stay in it the whole round anyways.
