Power logic

    In this thread, were going to discuss logic with powers that don't make much sense to you.

    I'm gonna start with stealth and invisibility, how come those aren't the detaunts?? Or why don't they at least "stun" the enemy and make them look around?? I mean if someone just went invisible right in front of me I'm probably gonna be shocked for a minute.

    What powers do you question the logic of?

    P.S. I know this is a videogame about superheroes that already defies many laws of nature, this thread is meant for fun.

    I feel like most if not all of my fire toon's abilities should apply the burning pi. It's fire, it's hot.

    Why doesn't an electric healer combined with a water healer kill everyone?

    Because that only works in the movies.

    Speaking of that, electric should be a troll. Electricity = power. :p

    Oh really? Pretty sure having a bath with your toaster would kill you.

    Stealth does detaunt:

    Stealth also inflicts the Dazed Power Interaction.

    Heck, why does one kind of Fire heal you while another kind of Fire kills you?

    I’ve always wondered that myself. Or, why don’t fire and ice cancel each other out or at least make a lot of steam?

    As a fire dps, I'm vulnerable to burning
    As a ice dps, I'm vulnerable to freezing
    Etc.

    Your not totally invisible to tanks and close ups, why is that?

    Also in the real dc comic world, every character has it's ups and down ( weakness and advantage), why doesn't that apply to in-game?, I get the balance nightmare but can it be any worser than it is now?

    Don't even get me started on electric healing.

    When's the last time you saw someone get electrocuted and say, "wow, I feel so much better after that."

    Maybe I'm just forgetting. Maybe the Emperor was actually trying to help Luke Skywalker and Mace Windu.

    Especially if your wife found out about it.

    No. This is the worst moment of my life.

    Personally, I've always wondered about munitions.

    How exactly does it "energize" teammates?

    Do you like shoot them in the head with magic bullets? Does your "hurrah" inspire them and give them superhuman strength?

    Also, where does the "nuke" fall from when you're inside a building?

    I guess munitions characters don't care about protecting their teammates from the harmful effects of radiation, blast shockwaves and collapsing buildings.

    And... where the heck does your portable MOUNTED TURRET fit in your gear bag?

    No that's only a problem if you try to put something in the toaster that isn't bread.
