Wormhole?
i've seen it used to good effect, but you really have to have a team that's on the same page, so to speak.

Any use?
Wormhole is awesome!
One of the best tools to grab a spawn, dump them in a corner (leaving them all stunned), and then proceed to AoE them into kibbles.
Or, as I was doing on my Dom the other night in an outdoor map - Wormhole one spawn into the middle of another, drop an AoE hold on the lot of them, and then AoE two groups to kibble.
One of the most useful powers in Gravity Control. And incredibly unique too. Set defining, IMO.
I love it with my Grav/Kin. When slotted for lots of disorient, it lets you group up a mob tighter to maximize AoEs. It also helps with accidental aggro, especially in those large cave rooms with lots of mobs. Just the other night, my team was fighting a mob and a Blaster accidentally aggroed a second. I Wormholed the second to the Tanker, and the Fire Blaster laid down Rain of Fire. It was great.
It's also a lot of fun to team with a /Dev Blaster and Wormhole mobs on top of Trip Mines.

Whirlwind rocks... I don't have a grav/ (anymore) but it IS a stun, even if you don't need the TP portion. Plus I think the KB can be used effectively either in cornering, or in going above things, and turning it into KD. Again, I don't have a grav, but I've thought about making a Grav/Storm many times, I would think all the positioning power of storm, with WH would be fantastic fun. Especially on ITFs and LGTFs, in the cave maps, or if you're on the roof wtih Rom...
I absolutely love Wormhole and use it all the time on my 50 grav/ff.
It's wonderful for teams, especially if they know it's coming. And soloing, it's great when the mobs are a bit big and you need to take most of them out the fight for bit while you concentrate on the bosses.
Wormhole is a lot of fun. The only gravity powers I would say that are better are the Singularity and Propel, and the latter only when soloing.
Never argue with stupid people. They drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

Its also very nice for droning base campers or grabbing huggers out in pvp. Depends which situation your in. Slot that puppy with acc and range.
There are many great uses for wormhole. It's an AOE tp foe with disorient and knockback.
You can use it to set up containment, as an "oh [censored]!" power when a second group aggros to you or your team, to have a reason to sing "It's raining men. Halleluia!", or to pull things into your trap of doom.
As a grav storm, I would perhaps call my rainy day pets by a corner with hurricane on and wormhole a group into that corner. Singularity's repel and your hurricane would keep them in place, the KB would be controlled by the corner, the mobs would be dazed, debuffed, unable to move, no where to go, and ripe for you to pick at.

Dude I love wormhole. That is, whenever I take my Grav/Psi Dom out for a spin.
I REALLY picked some late blooming powersets on that one
Funny story my friend was using wormwhole on a Shadowshard tf. He dumped the badies on the tank, and the tank proceeds to put in team chat "woah they tp'd right to me". Lmao

This.
This tactic was SOP for Red and I in the old days back on champion when I played a grav/kin and she played AR/dev. So easy a caveman can do it.
One of the grav controllers in my SG uses this power frequently and to great effect.
He also uses it to teleport Hellions straight up.
*looks at mermie in horror*
I...wow. I don't even HAVE a grav and my jaw drops at the amazing awesomeness of that power.
All those things aside (which are AMAZING), you can wormhole mitos from the LGTF outside of the goo so that it looks all funky. It's great fun

I know I know!

p.s. Don't tell Nive mk
I have it on my grav/kin and I love it too, when I remember to use it. I just haven't played her enough with the right groups to get full use out of it.
Slot it up, it's fun! There should be one power on every toon that is just plain fun. (And the devs took the fun out of fire/burn)

I love Wormhole. On my grav/rad I'd grab a mob and chuck them in a corner, lay down an immob, and EF and let my team wipe them. It has a fast recharge and is just supremely useful, not to mention fun as hell.
I've seen it be a real pain in the [censored] with people that weren't used to using it, scattering mobs hither and thither. Even then, it's still fun to watch.

/t @Nive, mermie never uses her wormhole but she told us not to tell you so let's be hush hush about it

Pff, when will they learn to stick the reticle on the ceiling. Then you can start singing "IIIIITS RAININ MEN! HALLELUJAH IIIIITS RAININ MEN!"
That's fun too.

Bad Mermy!
Especially for a grav/storm! Cane one group into a corner and then wormhole the next group into your little play area! Its not awesome for all teams but it is great for some!

I especially love doing that on outside maps, putting the reticle in the sky. The beauty of bouncing Hellions makes me want a smoke...
...and I don't smoke. It's just THAT. AWESOME.

Is there really any use for this power? I have it on my grav/storm and I don't like it. I've never even slotted it. So I'm thinking about respec'ing out of it.
I actually respec'ed out of Thunder Clap to get this and meh. But I think Thunder Clap or whatever is kinda useless too =/ So I'm stuck with either Tornado or Whirlwind to pick up
