See Energy Blast for their first try at Water-based powers.
But hey, I'm always up for new, well-thought out powerset ideas. So, maybe you could put together a full powerset of what you'd like to see?

Water is well-known for being really, really hard to model in video games.
Prof, they already did a nice set of water attacks. Coralax have some and then there is the villain epics. Water spout specially is SWEET looking.
I think it would make a great blast set, but in the meantime i would be happy with a Coralax summon MM set that just mixed and matched the existing attacks with a mixture of coralax pets.

Sprout is a plant. Spout is the word you're looking for.
That said, water attacks would be cool.
With the distortion shader effects the game now supports and some time to work in the particle effects, you could do a much better looking water power set these days.
Think The Abyss meets Waterbending meets Frankenstein.

Both.
Depending on who you read, the monster became a doctor.

But if you're talking the classic story, Victor Frankenstein, the guy who made the creature, was no doctor. He wasn't even a medical student, IIRC. He was just some guy with a lot of time on his hands who liked to sit in on lectures about dead bodies.

After pulling out a Vanguard Heavy for (essentially) the first time, I'm kind of amazed how much its energy attacks look like sprays of luminescent water...
Just something to think on.
All that is planned fails. All that is born dies.
All that is built crumbles. This will always be true.
But memories remain, And that is beautiful.
There are water based powers in the game, its called Ice.

And we had no less than four power sets with guns and now we're getting Dual Pistols.
Don't even bring up swords.

Can you show me how my frozen chunks of CO2 are actually frozen chunks of H2O, because I'd *love* to hear this story.

Well, what i'm looking for is the process between the SOLID that you speak of with ICE and the GAS that it ends up at after it has evaporated. It's a strange stage called, WATER.
As far as powersets, i love to play powersets, not too good at creating them. That's why the Devs are Devs and i'm just a player. lol.

I thought it would be hard to do, BUT after unlocking the Epic pools on villians and seeing the Water Spout and how sweet it looks, i've changed my mind.
I'd like to have some more.
