Spinning Strike has to be my favorite animation hands down. But yes, it is a bit disappointing to note that it's a Targeted AoE as apposed to a PBAoE. It's radius seems comparable to Dragon's Tail but you require a target. It can work out if you position properly and add CR (Combat Readiness) + Sweeping Cross for a good CC-action.

And it seems only Heavy Blow has two different animations. Everything else is pretty much constant.

Book case column on the left side of the fire place in the last room. Just did it myself and took a second. I kept looking around for the torches xD

Did you click it too early? It may have not processed. Otherwise I'm not sure what you mean, dunno if it's regional set or not unfortunately

Hold on, when I get to the character creator I'll see if I can fraps it if there's still no demos I'll upload it. :P


Once you're in an instance, the powers kind of flow. It's about on par with Broadsword or any other semi-slow set. But hoping the Finishers do well for making up with the downtime :P

Those same folks can talk in Broadcast! It's so intimidating! D:

If you say it's dumb, you're doing it wrong.


Eh, until more animations come about, the only attack looking the neatest would have to be the Shoryuken even though I find the animation downright silly. Looks like the guy is going coo-coo for CocoPuffs.

Yeah at the moment, that's a bit too many hero merits for my alt I'm thinking of revamping for Freedom. But I gave it a look, so you just went with mostly reactive armors for the toggles huh?

hahahaha, you must really love pancakes.

A bit off topic: Any chance you can post a build of x/Elec for a softcap build? I would like reference for my StJ/Elec when Freedom launches.

Have to agree on that. It's an excuse in the form of an afterthought in an attempt to apply a sense of challenge.


They seemed like a legit group that would be able to do such things. This is where TP is mad fun with a stalker, as long as they're not wave-spawns: BU > TP > AS = TOAST IS READY


But that makes me confess, I hate it when I do a mission that spawns ambushes of various enemy types who know exactly where you are.







On a different note, Trials have been bugging the PANCAKEPANCAKEPANCAKEPANCAKE out of me lately on one of my 50(+3)s. How is a stalker meant to get VR on rolls or even the chance when their ability to debuff, team buff, and such are limited? I do not like this false sense of effort the Incarnate Trials are trying to put onto the player because it doesn't work. Why not just follow the Empyrean method? 1st run of the trial of the day you get a VR, second you get a Rare, and so on. The game is old enough, trying to apply a sense of effort doesn't work when certain ATs just perform all around better. If buffing/debuffing means say a Mastermind gets alternate routs to boost their "rep" in Incarnate Trials; that's a crutch to a Stalker whose primary capabilities is to deal burst damage. It's a little aggravating - kind of a big deal.

That would be interesting, Evasion for Stalkers getting this boost and Lucky for the rest. Hmmm.



As for x/EA, I'm still wanting to make my StJ/Elec and the inability (which seems likely to stay) to choose whether to be invis or not would mess with the concept.

using StJ/Elec myself with similar premise. His street fighting comes from simply kickboxing/improvised hand to hand combat where his super power is electrokensis-helping him deliver devastating hits or stunning strikes.


I'm going to miss Kinetic Melee's Focused Burst though - My HOWYADOKEN! T_T
