force blast and force control

[DREAMERS]

hello , 

I would like the devs to be able to release two lines :

-force blast (for blasters defs corupt ) and

-force control (for controler ans dominators) 
these graphics would be the same as the force field but their secondary effects would be to be able to copy the secondary effects they received on them to relaunch them 1 time towards the enemy automatically
for example if the player receives - recharge 5 times on him it will impregnate his powers and during his attacks which will hit the targets will receive - recharge for 5 sec
if he does not accumulate anything his attacks will have no secondary effects it will just do damage
me who loves playing with the force field I would like to be able to one day mount a contro or a def full force field (like with the power lines sonic or fire)

Well, energy blast kind of represents a generic "force" blast, as you appear to describe it, unless you are looking for some sort of ranged-smashing damage set...

Not sure about a force blast because yeah, energy blast.....but force control could be a thing.

 

Mini force bubbles holding targets immobilized like how Atomic Manipulation's electron shackles grab you by the feet.  And force field holds to trap a foe, but not the kind that completely insulate the target from attacks.....think Invisible Woman putting a force field over just an enemy's head to cut off their oxygen, but in this you're maybe adding bubbles to their hands and feet to hold them immobile.  A rapidly expanding force bubble that can stun everyone in the target area. But what sets it apart from other control sets and what kind of pet does it get?

 

This would be a perfect place to add another use of the new Telekinesis mob gathering effect as you use your control over the force to surround foes and drag them toward each other in one spot. I'll probably get all thumbs down for this, but I think thematically there should also be a mass KB power also....or maybe KD. Yeah, just spitballing here, but something like Bonfire's continuous knockback in an area the force controller puts a bubble over an area that keeps knocking foes down until they can either escape or until the duration wears out. Maybe shorten the duration compared to Bonfire since that can throw enemies clear letting them act again where as being knocked down over and over in one spot could get frustrating when NPCs are introduced and start doing that to players.

 

No pet. Most sets have a pet power and a couple have two powers, while Mind Control gets by with none.  Because it's still force fields and force fields protect, maybe replace the pet with a defense buffing power that scales lower than the standard force field buffs but can stack with it, so if you have a Force/Force controller, there will be a synergy bonus but if you have a Force/? dominator, you can still get some defense out of it.
