local986guy3 Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 After playing CoH there are certain powers that we gravitate towards and those we tend to stay away from. One fairly consistent power that comes up for me is "Knockback". Sometimes I have a baddie in my sights only to have him knocked away by another toon. Just for fun, and in theming a clumsy knockback toon, I'm looking for help from the CoH community to create "the most knockback" toon. Controller? Dom? Storm? Help me track down some options for this unusual toon. No wrong answers...just fun. Thanks in advance for your comments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psyonico Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 I'd vote energy/storm or storm/energy Corruptor/defender 1 What this team needs is more Defenders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frozen Burn Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 @local986guy3, welcome! here is a nice thread you may want to read through about options for KB and various ATs. But if you want a toon with the most KB, then @Psyonico is right and Energy Blast + Storm, either Defender or Corruptor will give you the most KB. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thraxen Posted December 24, 2023 Share Posted December 24, 2023 I’d say gravity control could be up there as well. Does wormhole could as kb? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shocktacular Posted December 26, 2023 Share Posted December 26, 2023 How does Forcefield compare to Storm? Also, what do you think about Bots on a Mastermind? Do they still do knockback? Want more from Praetoria? Check out my level 40+ Praetoria missions in AE! I've got 3 complete arcs, with a 4th in the works! Praetorians can get to AE in Pocket D by going through Studio 55.

Unclemarty Posted December 28, 2023 Share Posted December 28, 2023 If you're interested in knockdown instead of knockback this thread has some good ideas: I eventually settled on a fire/storm controller for this idea. The idea is that once bonfire, tornado, and lightning storm are set up they can knockdown while you're casting other powers. knockdown while you knockdown! Bonfire is particularly strong because it has such a fast recharge you can have multiple up per spawn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ringo Posted December 29, 2023 Share Posted December 29, 2023 MMs can pick up Bonfire in their Epic pool, so Bots/Storm/Pyre should be pretty great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
