Col. Kernel Posted June 8 Share Posted June 8 Let me start by saying that I love the new Storm Blast set. But who needs to be in the Storm Cell radius for the bonus damage effects, me or the mob? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laudwic Posted June 8 Share Posted June 8 The Mob. You can be too, but it is more important is the target is in or not. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Col. Kernel Posted June 9 Author Share Posted June 9 Thanks. It's weird, I swear I've seen mobs take the bonus damage from Storm Cell when I swear they're outside the AoE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How far outside are we talking? I've not tested it, but perhaps the invisible boundary is a bit farther than the invisible one. There's also the possibility, as I understand it anyway, that one could make a hit on an NPC under another's Storm Cell and get the bonus damage.

It may be a possibility (oh how I wish!), but I don't believe it's intended behavior. @KyaBuu (I think) tested it and their test came up negative. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarlet Shocker Posted June 10 Share Posted June 10 Storm Cell works best when the victim is in Lightning Prison.

Wonder to if it's a targeting activation thing similar to the "guided" missiles that following targets around or through a corner to hit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW, it's awesome to leave town for the weekend and leave this playing at full volume in the barracks to torture the jackass who was remanded to station for being thiefy. 1 Those of you who continue to profess a belief in the Users will receive the standard substandard training which will result in your eventual elimination.

I wish FNM would settle their differences with Jim Martin, they've been pretty bland without him.
