The I27p7 Immob Change

[ZamuelNow]

On the feedback side of "Suggestion and Feedback", I have to say I've been enjoying the change the devs made to the way knockback interacts with immobilization powers.  It sounds subtle on paper but it really is a nice increase in soft control.  And this is on a Blaster so it's probably far better on a Controller or Dominator.

I especially appreciate that now there is a relevant response to the in-game/in-forum complaints about other players using powers with knockback.

 

Sample conversation:

 

1: "I wish players would not use knockback, it ruins the game"

 

2: "Have you tried taking an epic AoE immobilize?"

 

1: "Don't tell me how to play my character!"

[A.I.D.A.]

Now if only they could proliferate the KB conversion to the AoE immobilize in sets like Electric Control which, at least on my Dominator, erroneously is missing the part that stops my gremlins from throwing things around the room.
