even without the single target indicator, given that the name is "kinetic" melee, i would guess that power siphon functionally acts the same as siphon power, but maybe a larger +dam buff and shorter duration. maybe even a +tohit too. if it is functionally similiar, it would probably also include a -dam debuff too.
I doubt it. There is no power to confuse it with, combined with the rename, it probably doesn't act functionally the same.

i hope the stalker AS animation is unique. im thinking something like kamehameha from dragon ball.

oh btw, what will the AS be called(strike, blow, etc..)? do we know yet?

actually after reading this:

i am probably wrong, but maybe it makes all of KM's other powers act like siphon power, which would be cool as well.

Yeah, you're going to look cool faceplanting because you're standing there doing Jazz hands, unable to move or activate your self heals for 2-3 seconds.

My prediction is that this set'll go over as well as DP...popular at first, flashy looking, but ultimately at the bottom of the barrel for effectiveness.

Still, if electric control is good, they'll be 50/50 on power sets for the expansion.

So far most of the videos have been crap for anything other than "Yes these sets DO exist." I personally want abit more of the sets shown in action.

Actualy there _was_ one on youtube from i gues a beta player, that did show kinetics quite good. There was a game, i played a while ago, that has similar animations. But i gues this set wont be playable for the beta people, i gues its a 'when it hits live' set.

edit. i remember, the 'other' hero game

This update is pretty good in my opinion, except that it lacks a basic description of the powers. Don't want or need any numbers, but a basic idea of what they do would be nice. Maybe something like: Air Jab - a short ranged "punch" of wind to the abdomin that may causes a minor stun while the enemy tries to catch his breath.

Still though, I haven't been able to even find a page like this on the main site for the rest of the power sets, so I'll take what I can get.

They better not have slow animations for a power set that relies on momentum.

Agree completely! Unfortunately I already came up with the reasoning they will use if it does have a slow animation time:

"Though these powers rely on momentum to create the energy to attack your foes with, you do have build up that momentum to be an affective weapon."

Or something to that affect anyways.
