Chanter (healing + dmg shield chant - bonuses would also work for summons)?

Yes, it works
If i can tell my opinion, I'd pick bear: more AR, good defense and larger circle that can make the difference in some situation, but it's valid most of all for SOLO, you know.

Hehe yeah I know it works. The question mark outside the brackets was meant as "Chanter(xyz)?" as in "should I pick this class maybe?"  Sorry...

Just played around with SC Beckoner for a bit while trying to compose a fun Stalker/Chanter. Holy moly the PL9 8*ancient weapons with some party support: just crazy.

Oh, I'm sorry, it seemed strange to me you didn't know that
Yeah, 8 ancient weapons buffed are amazing, they have only one flaw: you cannot script them to use their abilities!!!

I'm always like: click every single weapons, change their AI to auto-attack*, hover over ability, add shortcut (i.e. F1) to ability, then any time they end, click on every weapon, F1, click on enemy... and so on for 6 weapons everytime (6 because I'm MC, luckily )
If you know how to script it, please tell me

* in case I forget one of them, at least it did a normal attack

Afaik you cannot. But I simply pick one and queue up its special attacks with the shift key. Then the next. But I only do this when the fight is really hard because it's a very tedious job. Usually it's sufficient to just select them all, point to a single enemy and *pouf*.

By the way: having a SC Priest with Spark the Souls of the Righteous in combination with 8 animated weapons is also wild.

I don't know. I picked bears for survivability in combo with Stalkers rel. often - and it worked quite well imo.

yeah the +1 AR from stalker is really good. i've done the same (with bear). but also with antelope (extra AC on top of higher AC).

honestly i am not terribly scared of fort and will attacks, at least early on. better deflection and really good reflex (getting caught by drake breaths, man) do sound better to me than mostly irrelevant-in-early-game AR.

i'll admit i've never done boar, but that regen seems too slow to be that good.
