New Dimension Shift and pseudo pets.
Pseudopets share your phase state.

As I recall, Synapse said that if you summon a pseudopet like a tornado outside of the phase it will saty phased to the enemy; but if you summon it inside the Dimension Shift zone and hop out the tornado will stay in the same phase as the enemy while you will be safe outside.

Unfortunately, there is no -kb in Dimension Shift. So if you jump in with Hurricane running, you will kb all the baddies and they will phase back. Too bad, this would have be really awesome for a grav/storm.

On the Plus side, I guess that means a Grav/Storm could do some interesting things with alpha absorption that no other combo can. G Shift + Hurricane = all the bad guys debuffed and in a different phase than you. Not sure exactly how to leverage this though.
Seems strange to me that Grav/ has no -kb in the entire set. Thematically, it's just odd and a real weakness to the set.

Thats why the impact mechanism has been introduced - your standard hold was preventing propel and lift from doing their knock affect which was reducing their control potential. Impact has added a damage component to make up for this
Hurricane uses Repel not just KB anyway; it can push targets under -KB effects.

Has anyone played around with this combo?
For instance, if you have a dimension shift layed down and then call up a Tornado, how is it affected? If it goes into the shift, it should phase and go to town.
Would it kb the bad guys and throw em out of the shift?
The thought would be to leverage Dimension Shift as a portable corner for all your stormie madness. If there is kb prot in the shift, it should work like a charm.
