Does Hurricane stack from two Storm defenders?

If there are two defenders in a group, both running hurricane, will the debuff stack from each defender? Or will the debuff be applied only once?

Welcome to our pandamonium theme. Stacking hurricanes, Freezing rain all over the battlefield. Endless lightning storms. Stormies going blast blast blast in the comfort of stacked steamy mists.

We had a group theme: anyone with kb, most were storm defenders and controllers, but we were happy with the mind control TK and the energy/energy blaster, too.

Yep, as others have said, just about all debuffs (and buffs) in this game will stack from different users. Certainly all Storm powers will. Even different Freezing Rains from the same hero will stack. There are only a handful of cases that come to mind of powers in game not stacking from different users.

The Achilles' Heel proc will not stack from any source, same user or different. And there is a limited number of times that the incarnate interface procs will stack. There may be other examples but none that are coming to mind.

Of course once the debuff floor is hit, additional debuffage will have no visible impact. However, the amount of debuff is still tracked, so that it may overcome subsequent buffage.

In the case of hurricane, regardless of how much you debuff to-hit enemies will always have a 5% base chance to hit. If you have debuffed enemies below that level, then it will take a more substantial buff to their to-hit until they are able to pick themselves off of the to-hit floor.

Years ago I was part of a SG the Repeat Offenders ran. Was all storm, Tormento or something like that was the SG leader. It was fun and I was on the ground floor of that start up. Don't know what happen to them. But was all Storm and as you could imagine it worked well. Tormento would pull and everyone who had 02 would just spam heal him. He would pull the toons to a corner with several stacking defenses and then others would close them into the corner with hurricanes and he would walk out. Fun times for sure.

Hurricane is actually one power that you need to learn how to use properly. Push something too close to the wall and they spin off and out of the confines of the hurricane.

According to the news, Irene is stacking Hurricane and debuffing like six states at once right now.

Perfect Storms (All Storm Summoning SG) on Freedom is still active...Tormentoso was the founder, he still plays the game but is not SG leader anymore, although his alts are still in the SG. Currently, I'm one of the leaders of Perfect Storms. We've done all Stormy TFs before, they're great loads of fun. Freezing Rain stacking is awesome.

Hurricane used to be much easier to use before it was "adjusted", but practice with the current hurricane just takes more slight nudges with the edge. It acts more like a leaf blower, a little tap goes a long way.
