Kinetic Melee!

I was thinking at least one of those moves in the video reminded me of KAMEHAMEHA!


 

Posted

The other thing it reminded me of was air bending from Avatar: The last Airbender...

Anyone else see that, especially since they do base the mystical arts in that on real world martial arts (and air bending is based on Tai Chi IRC).

Quick we need to bury this information before Perfect Pain comes to tell us she was right!

Quick! Cover the information in casual players!

Is it the video that won't work, or YouTube itself? Try viewing the video normally, here...

Yeah, I thought that, too. And I don't even like DBZ or animé... :|

Me. I am very fond of The last Air Bender. I was just thinking about how I can do Air with it.

Shouldn't Kinetic Melee have an inherent power that makes your attacks stronger the more you are hit?

Powersets don't tend to get Inherent powers. Archetypes do.

That said...you are on the right track, aside from that.

Now that is intriguing indeed.

Each hit reduces resistance to KB?

Note to self: Make kinetic Melee Brute ASAP.

OOOHH...

Castle, if you include a longer range, wider reaching cone version of the Flurry/Sands of Mu/Shadow maul animation I will send you a TV series boxset of your choice!

You know...just so I can have a HUNDRED CRACK FIST OF THE NORTH STAR! style attack.

*let large enemy group attacks build up the damage bonus to max and then unleash it on the mob and then giggle like a schoolgirl*

Sadly, what Castle really wants is the complete You Can't Do That on Television collection. No crack fist for you.

The animations are pseudo-Tai-Chi-ish, so that wouldn't really fit.

"More free slots" are mentioned as part of GR, actually.

Kinetic Melee... which potentially gets stronger as it goes...

Brute Fury...

And support from a Kinetics corruptor/defender/controller?

...

...

I need a new Brute, I think.

Does it involve blowing up a school and going all angsty?

Love that cartoon. Though Waterbending was the style based on Tai Chi. Airbending was based on Ba Gua Zhang.

Firebending was Northern Shaolin Kung Fu, and all Earthbenders used Hung Gar except Toph, who used Chu gar Southern Praying Mantis. [linky]



I'm so gonna make toons with all the new powersets.

Nope, back when he was cool.
