The love of pursuit and the thrill of the chase is personified in the elusive Stalker… Those targeted by a Stalker had best give up all hope of escape. Those that wish to capture a Stalker should simply accept defeat. Undetectable and uncapturable, Stalkers specialize in spying, harassing, chasing and shaking off enemies.
They were originally trained to spy upon the Assassins for the rogue guild but refusing, they now roam alone through the lands.
A Stalker is the Transcendent variant of Rogues. Most melee classes try to avoid them like the plague in fear of getting fully divested and then clobbered by one of their many copied skills during woe. Stalkers are geared more towards pvp and woe, however most builds can do PvM just as well.
Their main forte is the now improved intimidating capability. They can opt to keep any skill gained via intimidate by simply casting preserve. Most prefer to intimidate bowling_bash, it works well with most of their builds. One of their other favored skills is Storm Gust being cast at its lowest level, which -usually executed after strip_armor or full_strip- will render most targets immobile in pvp environment.
Their stealth capability also has been improved thanks to the skill chase_walk, complementing tunnel_drive well. Although being prone to AoE skills, it makes the caster impervious to detection skills like sight while also being able to move relatively faster than during stalk. This makes Stalkers one of the two most preferred classes (the other being the assassin_cross) for guild leaders, by utilizing emergency_call behind enemy lines after successfully avoiding detection. Slap on a Guard of the Deaf that will render them immune to magic, and they are nearly unstoppable in their tracks.
