Hey, almost lvl 30 on my Elec / Nrg "Blapper" and I was wondering what is the general view on this power... Will I regret taking it or regret missing it out. ?

Discuss.....

Ok I took it before I received any reply's on this thread,

Can Safely say that its the biggest waste of a power yet... !

Too slow to keep up with me.
Less damage than Power thrust.
Hardly any endurance transfered to me.
Cannot stack!! 1 is your lot. even though i was told it did.
Runs out too fast too.

Worst power i have taken in a toon to date! Infact I stopped playing the blaster cause I was that p*ssed off with it.



(nooo happy)

Exactly why I stopped my electric blaster. But still trying. If you need I can prolly help you with a respec mish for it later if you need.

If a power makes you stop playing a character you need to get rid of it ASAP.

Thanks I may take you up on that, although I have respec'd that character about 4 times now. Maybe more, they have usually been free ones or vet ones.. but not found a happy pvp medium. Just dont enjoy the nerfage that is Elec blast.

=(

There is "something" with Thunder Blast. I don't know what it is though. The first four powers are great... then the rest just let the set down until you get Thunderous Blast. This is definitely a Power Set that needs looking at. Compared to the other Blaster Sets, it suxxors... badly. The others have AoEs or powerful single-target blasts. The only powers in Thunder Blast which I would consider taking are: Charged Bolts, Lightning Bolt, Ball Lightning, Short Circuit, Aim, Tesla Cage and Thunderous Blast. Voltaic Sentinel? Whose idea was that?

Aye electric needs to have some more powerful attacks and a rethink of some of the powers.

If you need that respec then drop an email to me on Defiant - @Serephena

By far, nrg/ or AR/ are way worse then elec is.
If you ever seen the draining ability of elec/nrg or even elec/elec..

Ii have yet to find a happy PvP/PvE medium for blasters. IMO if you want to PvP with it only take single target attacks and get CJ/SJ/Acro and Hasten/SS, Medicine pool as well.

Yep Elec far from sucks, as with all power sets there are powers that everyone avoids and VS is that one from this set, Elec/Elec is one of the best blaster builds the end drain and holds make it stand out from any other blaster set.And as for power/damage it has loads of it the melee attacks are some of the most powerfull avalible to blasters.

My elec/elec can solo EBs no prob and keep them drained of end the whole time, i can also hold AVs with the many holds in the set. Elec is far from gimped/nerfed or rubbish it just takes a little more thought to play.

I'd rather Ice/Elec

They were appropriately appalled

with one leg missing
Eight legs, one body, silk,
