Introduction

The Stalker is a light robot with 2 light hardpoints.

Ability

The Stalker's ability is called Stealth and when activated the bot cloaks itself for 8 seconds preventing enemies from locking onto the Stalker unless the enemy has Quantum Radar equipped and activated.  The cooldown period for the Stealth ability is 16 seconds.

Strategy

The Stalker's base speed of 66 km/h and Stealth ability make it very good at capturing beacons, conducting hit-and-run attacks, and flanking opponents. 

Due to having only two light hardpoints the Stalker does not have much firepower, so using high burst Damage Per Second weapons ( Pinatas or Pins) and timing when to attack is important.

The Stalker can be a great counter to long range snipers and campers since it can use its speed and ability to manuever behind enemy lines and catch unsuspecting targets. 

Threat Measure

The Stalker is considered a moderate threat in the lower leagues.  It is good for beacon capping and causing disruption behind enemy lines.  The Stalker is good for learning hit and run tactics and can help with transition to higher tier bots such as the Pursuer, Loki, or Phantom.

Possible Setups

These setups are recommended for the Stalker:

Note: Each slot type is filled with only one particular weapon. For example, if a robot has 3 light all three of those slots are filled with Pinatas, as mixing weapons of the same slot type is not advisable.

Overview

For sustained DPS Magnums and Punishers are a cheap option. High burst DPS (Aphids, Gust, Pinata, Rime) is recommended for hit-and-run tactics.

Not Recommended

• Mid-range and long-range weaponry, due to low damage, and they don't fit the Stalker's role very well, as a beacon capture and ambush unit.
• The use of more valuable equipment as there are better platforms for mounting premium equipment.

Trivia

• If Stealth is triggered during an enemy's missile strike, the missiles will target the ground where the stealth ability activated but will still hit the Stalker if it does not move.
• The Stalker was once the fastest robot in the game at 66 km/h. New robots with lower speed with abilities that are able to increase speed, or bots with equal speed, such as the Pursuer, have surpassed the Stalker.
• The Russian War Robots community dubbed the Stalker as a "Rat", due to its shape and sneaky behavior.
• The Stalker's color scheme and design style noticeably resemble that of the Magnum.
• When entering Stealth Mode, the top of Stalker's torso flaps opens and a crystal-like object (some cloaking device) then protrudes out.
