Best power ever!

Stygian Circle, clearly... everything before lvl22 and after is like night and day

All you ever need to be able to do is kill *one* enemy and you will never die. Ever. (Well, you *could* die, if you forget to use Eclipse, but then again, you have Stygian Return..)

...I'll just say it- the "best power ever" is "being a Warshade".

Omega Maneuver. "Hai guyz, the bomb is shiny and talking to me! Come look!" The taunt effect is bloody hilarious.

Full Auto. Yes, it's four seconds of being rooted for a crashless baby nuke with a thirty-second or less recharge. It's also one of my favorite sound effects, though I wish I could get a Column chain-gun.

As previously stated, Warshade is a great power. Shift-buff-shift-kill-shift-restart-repeat. I especially like Nova form's cone attack; the targeted blasts of dark spraying out is much cooler than just a random barrage of flying crap.

Almost everything in Storm; Freezing Rain for effectiveness and Lightning Storm for visual appeal.

Earthquake remains a favorite of mine, if only because of the pain it used to cause players back in the old days when nobody wanted to fight Circle between 10 and 20. When not everybody had -KB IOs, and Hover was harder to take early when you needed lots of powerslots for Stamina, Ruin Mages probably caused more near-wipes than anything else. I like the animation, and the effect is pretty damn handy, for -defense even when the KB is useless.

There's always Fallout, for being slightly bizarre (one of the only original powers that targeted a dead ally), OSA for being really bizarre (how do you fit all that oil into a little arrow?), the old Thousand Kicks MA animation, and finally, the mostly useless yet hilarious Minion Bomb from MM traps.

WORMHOLE!

Seriously...this is really just a plain fun power to use...and one of the best "goofing-off" powers around. I find myself using it while i'm running from one door to the next and happen upon a pretty good sized group of baddies that won't smear me before i can kick it off. Pick center target..the toss mouse pointer in a random direction and POOF!

Lightning Rod is just pure sweetness. Fell it love with it the first time i kicked it off.

Propel also gets a mentioning from me just for pure random "did you just throw a FORKLIFT?" purposes.

Hail of Bullets. Say what you will about this power, but the Dance of Deathblossom is just...yee-freakin-HA to me. Brings a grin to my face everytime i see it.

Psychic Wail. Yeah...its got a crash...but there's just something about screaming, putting little pink-purple rings around stuff...and watching them keel over. hehehe

Fearsome Stare, Oppressive Gloom, Soul Storm, Stygian Circle, and Eclipse. Soul Storm has to be the coolest looking hold in the game.

Probably not my all time favorite, but Howling Twilight is one of those crazy situational powers that is just awesome if the stars align.

7 dead teammates around you and a group of scary things swarming everyone? Well, hey, why don't you all hold this stun for me as all my dead buddies get up!

Aim + BU + Inferno. The choking lag spike it cause just adds to the anticipation. Like punching enemies in the face WITH THE SUN.

Fearsome Stare is awesome too, if only for the "Skull popping out mah face!" animation.

All of the animations in Duel Pistols feel uber fun, even if the numbers don't wow people as much. My DP is a Blaxploitation super heroine, and she looks so damn BA putting down a baddie with Executioner's Shot.

Stalagmites... there is something awesome about uppercutting enemies- WITH THE GROUND!

I love the animation of the Thunderous Blast - your character raising it's arms as it charges them up with electrical power and when it reaches that critical point, throwing it out at your foes. Great animation, and a (semi)ranged nuke!

The latest animation that I really like though is the summon for an Incarnate Lore pet! Really says you're about to pop out something special!

Love my shield charge and fire sword circle on my scrappy and love the animation on my brutes touch of fear and the big one is seeds of confusion on my plant 'troller with the purple contagious confusion IO.

Waterspout

This power has done so much for my Stalker it's absurd.

Oh I'm at the agro cap and starting to get overwhelmed? Waterspout
EB's are swarming all over the place? Waterspout
Cimerorans piled around beyond the agro cap? Waterspout.
Army of infinite Rikti/5th Column? Waterspout's got me covered.

Also Singularity.
When I was playing a grav Dom Singy always had my back.
and for massive lols place Singy at the doorway of a bank map during a mayhem and watch as the citizens try to flee only to be flung around.

Blizzard! Do the drop. Everybody do the drop! Do the drop! Everybody do the drop!

Deceive. There's nothing better than turning the game against itself!

Full Auto, by far. Yes you get rooted for 4 sec, but its really the ultimate 'dodge this!' move.

'Look! Burning ice!' is my favorite also (icepatch -> ignite).

Thought about it and I am neck'n'neck with powers.

I love Singy. Serously...it does what I want, when I want it, and I always have a really neat...friend....thing.

But Dual blades is like watching ballet. I can't pin point a power in that set. There is nothing I would classify as super awesome...except when It happens it looks super awesome to the point where I think my toon should be on "You think you can dance"!

It's pretty to watch and even if I die...It's still pretty. It's not a single power, but it needs mention definately.

But Singy is definately my fave.

third mention is anything with -fly. Why? Cuz its fun traveling the mission map, seeing things that are really not bothersome flying about and then hitting them with the -fly and watching them fall.

I also enjoy force bolting things off of roofs, bridges and anything up high really...are they the best, no, but darn are they amusing. Like when I got Wormhole! Not the most powerfull thing...but come on, for poops and giggles alone it's worth the purchase:

Invincibility. I'm harder to hit, and you're easier to hit. You're boned. I would take this on every character if I could.

Runner ups: Combat Jumping, Eagles Claw, and Oil Slick Arrow (for the sadist in everyone).

Hmm..My fav power on all ATs is Air Sup.

On just Scraps and Brutes it is Fire Sword Circle

On my Doms and squishy toons my fav power is Transport Foe.

Lisa.

Oh snap. In no particular order:

Full Auto, because it's incredibly satisfying just blasting everything with craptons of bullets.
Drain Psyche because it makes you unstoppable.
Carrion Creepers because seeing your vines of death spring from the ground helps build self-confidence.
Fulcrum Shift, because it helps you kill harder.
Poison Gas Trap, because who wants enemies with regen?
Acid Mortar, because yes.
Footstomp, because BAM!
Against All Odds + Shield Charge, because while great by themselves, they work so well together.
Lightning Storm, because he's pretty and he throws lightning at stuff
Static Field + Conductive Aura, because I don't like enemies with end.

And of course, Flight. Other games don't capture the fun of flight as well as this one does.

Wild Streak - Lv. 50(+3) Beast Mastery/Sonic Resonance Mastermind, Amnesty - Lv. 50 Staff Fighting/Dark Armor Stalker

One of my favorite attacks is Psychic Wail. i love seeing anything less than a boss simply fall over dead. As a crashless nuke the only downside is that it takes so long to recharge.

Oil Slick Arrow. On a Corrupter with Archery, it's just what Rain of Arrows needed to be complete.

White Dwarf Flare. Makes me wish there was a power of Lightning powerset.

Combat Jumping and Vengeance.
Almost all my toons have those two powers.

I always take this power no matter what: Hasten

This power is pretty and strong: Lightning Rod

I would like to have this on me 24/7: A tie between Disruption Field and Adrenalin Boost

Would be overpowered if ported into any other powerset: Rage

Amazingly underused for what it can do: Fortitude

OMG this is awesome: Fulcrum Shift
