CoV day 2
Oh, after Tom's game I made another villain, 'Ice Weasel', an energy/ninjitsu stalker who talks like a combination of Gollum and the skin lizards from Digger. And has similar motives.
I'm... not very good at being a stalker, at least in a group. It always seems like I'm the *second* person to assassinate the appropriate bad guy, meaning I waste all my time and don't get any damage in. It's a little frustrating... but WAY more interesting than flat-out scrapping.
Ninjitsu is a weaker version of the weakest scrapper defense set (super reflexes) weakened further because stalkers have inherently weak defenses... tissue paper would probably be more helpful. Got my ass handed to me by a group of yellow minions AFTER being buffed with defense and resistance powers by some friendly neighborhood corruptors to layer on top of my own shields. Sigh.
Fortunately, stalkers seem to shed aggro pretty well in a group, so I can just hide behind the squishies.
