I apologize if this has been covered already, but does anyone else think A Dom/Trollers powers should be "Knockdown" and NOT Knockback?
The whole concept for a Dom/Troller is "Crowd Control". It even says Crowd Control in big letters when you make a new toon.
- Look at Ice Slick, a nice big patch of Ice. Guys run across it, they fall down. It's useful, and allows you to maintain control over your battlefield.
- Now lets look at Earthquake. Same basic concept, except that instead of falling down, they scattered to the 4 winds. This power is pretty much never used by me, simply because it seems to be counter productive to crowd control.
I have used it, usually around myself to keep baddies away while I work, but it's few and far between. On a side note, I would like to say that the last large Earthquake I was in, I wasn't thrown 20 feet in a random direction. I did however, fall down
So what do you all think? Is knockback useful, or would Knockdown be better and more in tune with our job description?
