Crysis Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 Soul Storm. Fight meh! 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
High_Beam Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 Storm Blast's Direct Strike (Sniper). You are pulling lightning from the sky and literally bringing it down on your enemy. Its personal, its visceral and it is fully visualized. Soul storm is pretty solid looking though, I cant deny. Hail of Bullets form DP is also pretty nice, like when the Gunstar goes off in the Last Starfighter. You see the moves and the pistols and the bullets, not just some blurry PBAoE 4 4 Girls of Nukem High - Excelsior - Tempus Fabulous, Flattery, Jennifer Chilly, Betty Beatdown, Totally Cali, Two Gun Trixie Babes of War - Excelsior - High Beam (Yay), Di Di Guns, Runeslinger, Munitions Mistress, Tideway, Hard Melody, Blue Aria Many alts and lots of fun.

MoonSheep Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 the vorpal judgement power has a pretty unique animation, often overlooked during the chaos of battle 1 If you're not dying you're not living Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biff Pow Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 Mighty Judgement with the knockup is a favourite of mine. Especially when you go back to Atlas Park and send a bunch of level 1s into orbit. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZorkNemesis Posted June 24 Share Posted June 24 Nuclear Blast. Nothing says "look at what I can do" quite like literally dropping a nuclear ICBM into battle. 1 Currently playing on Indomitable as @Zork Nemesis; was a Protector native on live.

Greycat Posted June 24 Share Posted June 24 I still like Thunderous Blast, even if we've got the various judgements. Just for the "Zap!" ... entire spawn twitches.... falls down in unison. It was satisfying when I first got it on my first Elec/Elec blaster back in the day, and it still is. 3 Kheldian Lore and Backstory Guide 2.0: HC edition Out to EAT : A look at Epic ATs - what is, could have been, and never was Want 20 merits?

NotsoevilDM Posted June 24 Share Posted June 24 Perhaps because I use them all the time on Flitz, I like the animations for Cobra Strike (palm strike to the smacker) and Eagles Claw (jump up and kick so hard that you backflip to land). I also recently noticed the animation for Energy Torrent (a sort of cross arm pull) which though understated looks cool. And while it doesn't look like much, for pure orange numbers it has got to be Full Auto from AR on Lead Hose. 1 Torchbearer: Flitz (MA/SR Scrapper), Lead Hose (AR/Dev Blaster), Red Rag (Fire/Fire Brute) ... and many more!

I will admit that Ki Push coupled with an immediate follow-up from Executioner’s Shot (or Ki > Storm Kick > Executioner’s Shot) is one of the most satisfying -sequences- of animation out there. Dripping style points. But I still think Soul Storm looks so much more like a stage act than Ki Push by itself. Sorry, not sorry….. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dauntless Posted June 24 Share Posted June 24 While mighty judgement is my vote for #1 for hopefully obvious reasons, I would like to nominate the snipe from power blast for #2. The caster sinks into a deep ready position, uses the other hand to help steady the blasting hand, and then the blasting hand shakes several seconds while you are building up the blast. Everything about that attack says "this is gonna hurt". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ta-da !! yeah, i have it on my Fire^3 blaster. i tend to go fire balls out attack on him all the time, built for damage, relying on inspirations and timing. (and fast room clears) when i make a mistake in the formula ROTP saves my bacon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eagle's Claw was the first thing that sprung to mind, but IMHO it's a slightly different reason. Most of these others mentioned project an appropriate image of raw power. Eagle's Claw shows precision and stylish grace in movement. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srmalloy Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 Whenever I see someone talking about a “Hey everybody, lookit what I can do!” action, I'm reminded of all the "Hey, y'all, watch this!" 'last words of a redneck' jokes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
