It seems like Gadgets is the only troll power without a larger than 2 group stun and this is really annoying in AnB when try to stun the manhunters using as little power as possible. Anyone know of a Gadgets group CC power that stuns more than 2 targets for a long period of time?
It definitely stuns more than two as I used it in AnB on the Manhunters. Just lined them up in an arch and stun them. Vortex Cannon is a knockback. Which is good to move adds around. It also roots and stuns. So when they get up, they sway/dizzy if I remember right.
if they are close enough GG will stun more than 2, ive trolled it as gadgets and taser pulled them to the back, got them all close enough and kept them stun with GG. Ifone got loose ill hit him with sleep dart
i use vortex cannon and mines, if you're curious, check this video (last boss at minute 21:50) where i do it as solo troll: put some mine around, if you die, mines will stun manhunters...tested
Vortex can stun up to 5, but of course it´s a cone power and it pushes them back rather than stunning in place or pulling. Dunno man, as a gadgets troll, I just user taser 2 times to pull them where my mental/quantum buddy troll wants them to be, and from there on I leave them to him/her, eventually keeping an eye on them in case I need to use vortex/gauss
Why stun when u can pull and stun? Man hunters spawn ,target them, jump taser pull mid air and voila. Adds back at entrance to boss room and easy as pie to manage. Yes taser is a pot move but its 100% easiest/safest way to manage the manhunters/benefactors ive found
Vortex Cannon works well for Assault and Battery. If you can get the Manhunters pulled to the western side of the room, you can use Vortex Cannon to push them all into the doorway and keep them there. Vortex Cannon can be used to restun the entire group. Put up some Thermite Mines as a safety precaution. If one of the Manhunters triggers a mine, it will knock back and restun the group. The Gadgets tree has other options for stunning multiple enemies, especially after GU 36. Sticky Bomb will be able to knock back and stun up to 8 enemies. You can use Implosion Mine from Stealth to stun several enemies and keep them in place. A less reliable route will be using Cryo-Foam and Fear Gas to turn large groups of mobs into Ice Cubes.
