What is your favorite power combo?


Recommended Posts

Oh, if you mean what combination of powers do you like to fire off, then Lightning Rod followed by Shield Charge is a pretty awesome tandem.

 

Although I could be persuaded that Fulcrum Shift followed by Inferno, Fireball, Rain of Fire, and Pyronic Judgement is a really great combo too.  ^_^  or just Fulcrum Shift + Any Big Boom.

Freezing Rain + Rain of Fire on my Corrupter.

 

Flash fire + fire cages on my controller.

Even though it doesn't actually do anything special:

 

Caltrops+anything with knockdown.

 

Just.. think about that for a moment.

On Live, I liked throwing out Rain of Fire + Caltrops on the same spawn.

 

I mean, it wasn't really that effective, but the gigantic stream of orange -1's and -2's was delightful to see.  :)

Fulcrum Shift and Foot Stomp.

 

Imperious Task Force, he was a WP/Inv Tanker, I was a Plant/Kin Controller.  He called his style of tanking "Mighty Fighting," which just consisted of charging for the closest enemy spawn and laying into it without concern for if or how much of the team was following him.  I was, though, laying down Seeds of Confusion and at least one Fulcrum Shift per mob.  Dunno if that nigh-immortal bastard hit the damage buff cap, but it sure felt like it.

 

(I kind of want to remake Hami-tan but some legends should rest.  Besides, it would absolutely cornhole the current lore.)

As a Scrapper main I eat a steady diet of crayons and glue to keep my wits sharp and my reflexes honed.

Right now, I think it's Disintegrate followed by Lancer Shot on my Beam Rifle Corr, which spreads the disintegration effect to nearby mobs - all those orange words and numbers floating up over a big group of foes!

I keep hearing about this combo (lightning rod and s charge)and I don't quite get it. Is it just loads of damage? I mean you'd lose the cool 'I traveled fast' or even gap close effect by running them one after the other. Not to mention other sets have similar aoe gap closers like savage or leaping...

It's oodles of damage, enough to wipe out entire spawns save for maybe the bosses, sometimes LTs survive if they are tanky.

 

They also share the same recharge rate, which is fairly low (90 seconds, so 45 with SOs). Meaning you can use them at least every other spawn generally.

It's bad and I never pick it, but visually I love Spring Attack followed up with any meaty AoE.

+1 for the giggle.  -1/2 for not using solar, which still rounds up to +1 inf

I really enjoy hit someone with Energy Torrent, sending them flying, then hitting them with an insta-snipe while they're still in the air.  Makes me laugh every time.

 

.... like shooting Skeet: "PULL!" ... BLAMMO .... :D
