so which do u guys think are better in all around terms pvm and pvp stalkers or sinx

SorenEmblem · 09-21-2007, 06:53 PM

I think both are equally good at PvP, but SinX's are slightly better at PvM. Thieves mostly use cheap PvP tactics, though. Normally SinX's use Cloaking to get close to you, then they maul you to death. Stalkers use Hiding to get close to you, hit you with a Back Stab, then maul you to death. INT Stalkers just copy someone's maxed Jupitel Thunder or Spear Of Ice and they spam it on you.

SinXs are just pure damage. If they go up against, say a Crusader or a Sniper with decent hp, they're finished.. They can be easily out damaged and SinXs are a one trick pony. Stalkers have much more utility and can bring more to a team. Full Divest weakens an MVP like hell and can immobolize key players in PVP. If playing a Bow rogue, with the right arrow they can deal a large amount of damage in a short amount of time by spamming Double Strafe.

Yeah, SinX's are very lacking in the defensive department, but if you make a Crit Katar Sin, your high LUK will boost your Perfect Dodge rate by a decent amount. Their low HP is the reason why they like to be pussies and sneak up on you using Cloaking. But Wizards and Champs can pulverise you easily with Sight + Sightrasher/Ruwach.

So can Snipers who spam Detect and Crusaders who spam Grand Cross. That is exactly why I prefer Stalkers. Sniper bothering you? Slip away, sneak up with Stealth and Divest them. This is pretty simple with a Cranial and Poo Poo hat. Same goes for Crusaders or Knights. Strip the shit out of them and they'll pretty much be useless. If a SinX tries to take on a GC Crusader he'll get his *** handed to him and its often the same with Knights.

Wow, you guys have weak SinX's.

Unless you're emp breakers with a lot of white pots.

But SinX only needs that soul breaker skill. 99 int, one hit kills.

Pluss with dex, he can spam it.

Take out crusaders and knights and snipers in seconds.

habeel · 09-24-2007, 03:06 AM

sigh where do you guys play...

Stalker and SinX can both be played Solo and in Party

Stalker is a bit more party based..

Atleast here on iRO, SD SinX are getting a bit out of fashion Sonic Blow Sinx or emp breaking build does much better ofcourse at the expense of EDP. (Get Soul Link, EDP and SOnic blow people to death)

With soo much long range damage reduction gear sd isnt really that useful anymore.

And for the people calling SinXes weak.. they have the second largest HP Buff after Knights.. sinx at 99 with like 40-50 vit can easily reach 13-14k hp
you just need to switch back to Cranial after you attack.

AND HAVING DEX DOESNT DECREASE YOUR DELAY SO YOU CANT SPAM SD UNLESS YOU HAVE STRINGS ....

i dont have a stalker so I cant say much on them

SorenEmblem · 09-24-2007, 04:11 AM

DEX reduces SD's casting time. 150 DEX = Instant cast
