I have an itching to play a flying brawler. With SJ or MA are there any limitations on airborne executions of powers? i'd hate to get to level 32 and find the powers only work on the ground. Any experience with which set looks cooler from the air?

thanks!

Limitations? No and no.

I've only ever really done airborn MA before...and it's been a good while since i've played that toon. So...I can't really comment on a comparison.

I have a flying/hover StJ stalker at level 41. No problems at all. I like the fact that Shin Breaker animation makes it look like you're stomping on enemies' heads.

Currently on Virtue:
Jinrazuo - Crab Spider

RWZ All-Pylon Solo Run

I'm leveling a hovering Willpower/Street Justice tank right now and having a blast - rocket boots FTW!

Melee + Hover seems like an odd combination to most people, but there's actually one way it's really amazing: if you're high enough in the air, any cone attack aimed at you will miss your allies on the ground. This can be a huuuuuuge benefit when tanking certain AVs, especially in Incarnate Trials.

I know its not either of the sets you mentioned,but I have a hover km/ea brute that uses the hover to negate the kb from some of km's attacks. Makes for a nice Sorcerery type toon.
