Zepp Posted January 1, 2020 Posted January 1, 2020 Brilliant, let's suck enemies into the squishy! My main is an Ill/Storm troller, and hurricane is a great power. It can be used to trap enemies in corners while debuffed, spread the field if you are taking too much aggro, or protect blasters that are grabbing the aggro from the tank... it can also be used to cover the backside of scrapperlocked scrappers before faceplant... I can affirm that the situation wherein Hurricane has been used well by myself or others have occured and are not anomalous. I can also confirm that the hardest part of playing storm on a team is making sure the other players understand what you are doing, because there are occasionally daft players that kick stormers because the daft player doesn't understand what the stormer is doing. 1 Archetype Concept Compilation -- Powerset Concept Compilations: Assault Melee -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Great Archetype Concept Battle: Final Round -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Archetype Proposal Amalgamation

kelika2 Posted January 1, 2020 Author Posted January 1, 2020 (edited) Can we get a mod to lock or delete this thread? The mindless vocal minority zealots are getting restless and I know I wont quit and its painfully obvious they are going for the brow beating tactic. Edit: Also to back up a lock/delete is that the original suggestion was answered in the very first reply before others decide to derail. Thank you ahead of time. Edited January 1, 2020 by kelika2

Hurricane just never ever ever made a positive difference in a fight ever Such statements from the OP essentially makes this thread a wasteland for me. No need to come back here.

Steampunkette Posted January 1, 2020 Posted January 1, 2020 The devs on Homecoming have stated that they have a Pull and Knock To vectoring solution. Now it's just a matter of time until new powersets are released that make use of those functions. Personally I'm hoping for a "Gravity Assault" set to pair with Gravity Control to fling people around the battlefield in wild directions.

It would make the power more situationally annoying to use, but I would love to see AR's M30 Grenade start blasting people away from where the grenade lands, instead of shooting it into the middle of a group and have the grenade blast knock people between you and the grenade blast away from you, as if the grenade blast is sucking them in. 1

That sounds like a viable test for using the vectored KB code... It is a good way to fix a power to make it work like people think it ought to. Maybe try adding a vectored repel to Crushing Field to crush the enemies towards the center. 1 Archetype Concept Compilation -- Powerset Concept Compilations: Assault Melee -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Great Archetype Concept Battle: Final Round -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Archetype Proposal Amalgamation

Guess what, humans can be wrong and that includes all of us as well as you. You don't like knockback and there are a lot off whiners about it; thing is its the idiots that ruin it. They don't use the knockdown IO. They don't understand that Energy Torrent is a bad idea into a group of NPC, single target is fine because guess what....you don't need to kill all of them as the other person is deal with it. 3 hours ago, kelika2 said: warning>boot Makes you a dick. Dealt with another guy, same response he had like yours and this was about Group Fly. He hated it, the one teammate MM using it was trying to reel in his bots, and it made this guy livid. Funny thing is, you can turn off the Group (Whatever powers) and some effects like the run in speed boost...he didn't want to spend 5 minutes in pocket D to turn them off and this was a 1 time deal per character to make life better for himself. He just refused and "waste of 5 minutes of his life." Turns out, he could just deal with the problem faster than he kept trying to defend his attitude over 2 days I was trying to convince him. 12 hours ago, kelika2 said: hell even radiation with a few tohit debuff SOs get -37% tohit which is a hop skip and a fart away from being near invincible. Toggle around self or target? Turns out, Hurricane is superior because it revolves around the player and yet Radiation has 2 debuff toggles...worthless in an incarnate group against your normal bosses since they get stomped so hard while that toggle is running on a dead boss, minions obliterated, and the group is already moving on....the guy with Hurricane just can keep it going...provided he is not an idiot. Rad works fine on an AV, not so much against your normal NPC group facerolling content. 5 hours ago, kelika2 said: I didnt read your post. hurricane is shit 99% of the time and that 1% of the time is not worth the enhancement slots or power slot or waiting for people to make it useful. Cause again, they are idiots. Did you bother to try to teach them? Do you even know how it is best to be applied? Try asking in the support AT forums how it is possible to deal with it, roll a storm set of your own and learn yourself. 5 hours ago, kelika2 said: i dont care if you can herd in 20 seconds a group when we can kill it in 1-5 seconds With incarnate?

And again...your not bothering to advance your knowledge on how to use repel powers. Yes there are idiots that don't know how to use it, you don't know how it is best used, and never tried it did you? I don't like the set myself because there is nothing I am interested in it, but those that play it get innovative and learn how to use it. 5 hours ago, kelika2 said: I have been playing Live CoH since before The Hallows and never fucking once has this ever come up. I have been playing since shortly after release, but no one fucking cares about it that fact. Assuming you played shortly before Hollows was released, I would of been playing longer before The Hollows was released. Nobody knew how to use Hurricane at the time, but one person learned it, passed that on, it made its way to the forums, and the information made it a choice to take to be utilized with out being an idiot. 12 hours ago, kelika2 said: as many times have I been inside a Tsoo Hurricane, my melee attacks are never shortened/negated So you are gonna throw in a straw hat argument about melee when -tohit is the penalty for trying to slug it out with a sorcerer?

This statement has no validation unless we are talking only about range but you are throwing out melee, turns out there are 3 effects....-tohit, -range, and knockback. Melee are gonna miss more often, now using IO that is a whole other story. 5 hours ago, kelika2 said: f you are solo, i dont care what you are doing. but be mindful that AVs resist debuffs hardcore when those purple triangles are up. that hurricane you are griefing with is a -3%~ tohit debuff with [Purple Triangles of Doom] And when triangles are in the wrong direction, all debuffs are pretty much useless. Please tell me I am wrong, some debuffs become useless but there are debuffs that have a minor usefulness when they are in the wrong direction. 4 hours ago, kelika2 said: Sets, and people who cannot control themselves or work as a team. Foot, meet mouth. You can't seem to work with them, refuse to do so, won't learn how it is best applied, and will probably not even bother to ask how from the experienced players nor will you roll a storm yourself. kelika2, for fun roll a blaster with Martial Combat secondary. That first power makes me giggle every time, its the only repel power in the set but the target moves slowly.

As for the prospect of a draw-in power, I believe it might have a chance to be implemented with the new tools they have. However, it will NOT be put in Hurricane. Hurricane is too good of a power to make it a face-roll for elitist people whose only concern is getting mobs as tightly packed to AoE them down. Maybe in a more situational and longer recharging power would you get that. EDIT: I think it might be time for us to start rolling up them Hurricane-using characters. Show him how its done.

Replacing it with an activated power that sucks in enemies, debuffs them and has a fairly large cooldown could be a fun idea. But then we'd be missing out on the defence bonus from Hurricane. There are other powers that could do that.
