Regardless though, what Stormy Darkness said about Psionic Tornado is accurate. Since it does knockup it is not subject to any of the problems usually associated with knockback powers. Although TK is the only non-psi damage in /psi I find that you can get by without it by relying on vet attacks if you have them (black wand and Nemesis Staff). If not, some of the robots may become quite painful. Subdue, Will Dom, TK Blast is a nice attack chain though. |

Psi Tornado is KnockUp. In theory they should just go farther up when you slot KB sets in them. Try it out though. Just slot the power with three KB SO enhancers and see what happens. If you don't mind the KU then put the Kinetic Crash in the set. If you don't like what happens, Positron's set will be there for you.

The City of Heroes Community is a special one and I will always look fondly on my times arguing, discussing and playing with you all. Thanks and thanks to the developers for a special experience.
