Powers We Like Too Much

I can't be the only one with a few absolute favorite powers in the game. There are some that may not be useful, but they're really, really satisfying to use! My list includes:

Crane Kick
Explosive Arrow
Slug
Frag Grenade
Cosmic Burst

...hmmm...a lot of knockback there... xD

Anyhow, what are some of your favorites?


City of Heroes taught me that when the world is burning, you don't just stand by and watch, you grab a fire extinguisher and do whatever you can to stop it-even if it's not much at all. Sign the petition to keep City of Heroes alive HERE.

Rain of Fire - especially with the Ragnarok chance for knockdown in it.... Muahuahaha!


Make a man a fire and keep him warm for the day, SET a man on fire and keep him warm for the rest of his life.

I just picked up Chain Induction, and giggled the whole time this group of outcasts were shakin from the shocks.

It's not the best snipe in the game, but I love my blasters Radiation snipe. Those pulsing balls of energy hitting a target one after another. Priceless.

Whenever I use that one I find myself yelling PEW PEW PEW!

When I played my AR blaster with the sniper rifle model, I used to love using the snipe to take down the last guy. The animation of holding up and aiming the rifle, then... BANG!

My Earth/Storm 'troller can be fun just for the amount of visual noise she can pump out. Well, fun for me, anyway. Can't speak for the rest of the team

I really enjoy using this on that last guy who-- upon seeing all his allies go down-- tries to run away.

Carrion Creepers. Every time I summon that patch of planty death, I find myself (and the rest of the team) smile and giggle a little while the enemies are... killed to death?

Edit: Oh, and on that note, the Creepers' happy companion, Seeds of Confusion

mass confuse- (bonus if it's with domination) Nothing like the entire team coming to a halt at the sight of an overpowering, team-wipe worthy spawn, only to pop domination and turn this sucker loose as the tough foes dissolve into each other.

Drain Psyche- Makes my dom into a /regen dom.

Rain of arrows- bonus points if you have boost range, aim, and buildup to pair with it.

Cloak of Fear: something about standing amongst a crowd of sniveling, shuddering fools as I kill them one by one.

Dark regeneration: 1% hp? More than enough. *sucks life back to 100%* Ahhhh....

Footstomp: BOOM!

Energy Transfer: BOOM!

Short Circuit: Oh I'm sorry, did you misplace your will to fight? There, stand/run around, perfectly useless, please. Thanks!

Assassin strike: good enough to make playing a squishy scrapper TOTALLY worth it.

Propel. Yes, it needs some work on cast time. But still, bouncing a forklift off someone's head never gets old.

Wormhole, as well. Especially when used to launch someone across a map.

The Radiation snipe... aka photon torpedoes.

Shield Charge and Lightning Rod. Nice way to say hello.

Carrion Creepers.

Thunderous Blast. Just for the synchronized twitch-fall-dead.

Stone Spears.

*SPIKES!*

Awesome.

Footstomp
Knock Out Blow
Headsplitter
Shield Charge!

Dark Extraction. Always satisfying to watch.

My favourite target is Adamastor as he's (afaik) the largest mob in the game with a corpse that has a "rez" animation.

Lightning Storm. Watching the bolts strike guys and send them flying backwards with that whitish flame never gets old.

*ZZzot!!*

I love it for the Star Trek Photon Torpedo sound effect.

I love Force Bubble for its hugeness.

I love Thunderous Blast (especially with Boost Range) for the mass of ranged jittery death.

Oh! Can't forget Synaptic Overload + Gale.

Take the last man standing from one mob, hit with the confuse (which is contagious) and blow him into the next mob. Mayhem ensues.

Priceless!

I have to remember next time my Warshade does the ITF to have her use Dark Extraction on Rommie the final time he goes down. You know at least half the team is going to freak out thinking he's getting back up again with that super AOE stun of his.

Muahahahahaha...
