about how many ticks?

i thought it was supposed to instill fear or terror or something as well, does it not do that at all, or not in pvp, or you just didnt see it do that effect? because fear isn't usually resisted...

It's hard to say how many ticks because it depends how long the Water Spout is on the enemy. If its just sitting on the enemy it ticks really fast, like maybe 2-3 per second.

About the supposed fear effect this thing does, i think its bugged right now, of all the mobs ive used this on, ive never seen them in the scared animation, none of the heroes in RV either.

and just to get this out there, this is what the power info box says:
Summon Water Spout: PBAoE
Minor DAM (Smash)
Foe Knockback, Fear, Disorient

Well I dont really know any good testing methods, so if you guys have any suggestions, ill try itand post my results here.

Anyway, i took this power out for a test drive in RV, and... not too helpfull lol. It seems that any hero who has any kind of mez protection is completly unaffected by it except for the low dmg it does, but when its not knocking them around it just sits on them and turns into a steady DoT, only like 2-4 dmg per tick though.

Well i just hit 41 with my stalker, and guess what i picked! water spout! It's not bad, activation animation is only like 1 second, if that, and the water spout lasts exactly 30 seconds.

So far ive just been playing around with it in Nerva, its pretty funny to watch it cause havok in a large group, it tosses em pretty far, and the disorient effect seems to last a good while too.

I havent used a pic hosting site before, but im about to so i can show you guys, so give me like 20 mins

Edit: ok i got a few pics
before

Water Spout!
