Question about hover + abilities like Arc of Destruction

Hello.

In the description of the Titan Weapons ability Arc of Destruction it says it can only be used while on the ground. Does that mean you cannot have hover on at all when using it, or can you use it as long as you are not hovering up into the air any?

I tried asking in game but got conflicting answers.

Reason for the question is that I tend to get very fond of the concepts for my characters and I have a winged TW user that hovers while fighting. It's very fun but I don't want to reach level 32 and find out I can't use the final ability.

While I don't have a TW character all other powers I know of that say something to the effect of "must be on the ground" won't work with Hover. I would assume that Arc of Destruction works the same.

If you use a power flagged as "Must be on the ground" while hovering, nothing happens. The power won't execute.

Hot Feet cannot be cast while you have Fly or Hover running. However you can Fly or Hover after casting Hot Feet and Hot Feet continues to work. Which is odd but I am not complaining.

My Super Strength tank wished she could Footstomp when hovering close to the ground and my Fire tanks wishes the same about Burn


This is a song about a super hero named Tony. Its called Tony's theme.

Yes, it's the same as FootStomp, you can't use AoD on the air, I have a level bumped TW guy on beta.
