Powers to negate hurricane?

Anyone know of any powers that let you get through hurricane?
My plan had been to take acrobatics to offer knckback protection, but have since been told that it stops you getting knockback from hurricane but still lets it push you away... therefore no use to me :/

Anyone knows anything please let me know, you know who i intend to use the power on

I think I've seen Energy Armor's Entropy Shield mentioned as having "pushback" protection...

MoG will let you in, and I believe Stone Tanks in rooted can get through. AFAIK thats it for Heroes.

Sorry, i didn't say, it's for a Stalker - Katana/Ninjitsu. It's lvl 25 and i don't fancy having to roll another stalker to get energy shield, as i already started again with this one to use it solely for PvP.

Damn, seems i'll just have to keep hangin about in the background waiting for hurricane to drop

Not a stalker I know but for others interested in getting through hurricane my INV brute doesnt even notice it

*edit* yeah it looks like entropy should be able to negate it too

Erm yes they would certainly help, but i need to wait for the level cap to be raised to pick up a hold in the epics (that's assuming the epics will be similar to CoH ones).

To help you out....u need use one of the temp powers in Sirens call called Stun grenade...otherwise u need to team with a holder or just simply forget it ...prolly using a holder in your team is the best chance u ll get shutting down hurricane. Thats pretty much all you can do unless of course you can grab the energy set which is awsome and is not affected by hurricane knockback. remember also its not enough to get inside hurricane u also need to lay a hit Good luck in trying

Unless the PC version of Hurricane differs from that of the Tsoo Sorcerers', kiting works wonders.

What about end drain? Stormies can't run hurricaine if they don't have end.

It does indeed but then again it differs cause Tsoo sorcerers dont know how to avoid kiting.

As for end drain it does work miracles indeed..get a good end drainer on team and bye bye stormies.

I know what AT's to have in the team to negate it, thats not what i was asking. I was asking about powers that i personally can take...

none unless the last power of the ninjitsu set can go through hurricane but if it is anything like elude then still u cant go in. Only possible help is Sirens Call stun grenades.Or any power that can disorient or stun from your set. If u mean to be able to get in while in hide to perform assasin strike well you cant simple as that.Not with that set at least.

Drain works great against the stormies, problem is if their in teams and buffed with adrenaline boost, theres nothing you can do, i've tried it on TG, and man its a pain when hes buffed with AB.

I had quite alot of sucess with my claws/regen scrapper against hurricane, seems focus takes the hurricane welder right off his feet and disable it, he comes down just in time for a nice eviscerate.

Of course dosen't help against other members of oppisite side holding me.


Too many 50's to list here's a few you may know.
Slazenger, Area51, Area53, Area54, Erruption, Mind Plague, Thresher, Sheath, Broadside, Debt

couple of yellows and and my nrg/inv put you down more than once Just built a Spine/NRG stalker with anti-fly for those hoverers (you know who you are lol) and entropy sheild to get through hurricane and resists debuffs

also anything that drains end so Electricty can stop a hurricane since its a toggle


 

Posted

Grab a kin/elec defender and let the toggles drop!

not anyp ools u can justick up withur current set to make it useless, as u said, u know the ATs to take it down. personally i think 2 blaster are the best thing to take it down, (aim+BU+snipe)*2 = dead troller

end drain is only viable in teams if you can keep ur spaper alive and they dont have an end buffer, but solo itll just about work. seems the best plyare sapper is a kin/elec/elec def or rad/kin corr.

storm ftw of course.

Villains can also now obtain Malta sapper guns (and Void guns) as temp powers which will make short work of a lot of hurricanes

you actually know that storm set has end drain resistance with steamy mist?which means that end drain is 25% effective in PvP adding the +res the storm set has u are tending to a 0. better luck with end drain

Still, it's enough to pop away at most characters, with ED I've slotted a lot of my electrical attacks with a couple of endurance drains and it seems to make a noticeable difference over time.
