Yeah, it's me again. This time with some power ideas for our tree-huggers in CO.

Vine Lash
* Melee Energy Builder (0~15 Feet)
+All hits have a change to apply Infection
*Ranged Energy Builder (15~50 Feet)
+First hit has chance to apply Infection
-Longer wait between attacks than Melee Strikes

Poisonous Vines
* 50 Foot Ranged attack that spawns 3 Poisonous Tendrils within 10 Feet of target's location (Uncontrollable Pet). - T2
+Each Tendril deals Toxic Damage to anyone within 15 feet of them.
+Each Tendril has a chance to apply Bleed or Deadly Toxin every hit.
-15 Second Cooldown

Constricting Vines
* 50 Foot Ranged Attack that applies a Hold+DoT on enemies in a 15 foot sphere. - T2
+DoT is Slashing Damage and comes with the Hold (Damage dealt by the hold does NOT affect how long said hold lasts)
+Any Breakfree Damage the held target deals is returned to their health.
+Charging this power increases the amount of damage the DoT does.
(Advantage - 2 - Anyone caught by the attack also earns a stack of Infection)
-15 Second Cooldown

Recuperation
* 50 Foot Single Target Tap Heal that also applies a HoT buff to allies within 15 feet of the target. - T2
+HoT also reduces damage coming from DoTs.

-HoT can only be stacked once per person

Outbreak
* 50 Foot Ranged attack that spawns a large plant (Uncontrollable Pet) at Target's Location - T3
+The plant roots itself into the ground and uses it's vines to randomly Snare and Infect enemies within a 25 foot sphere to it
+The plant can produce a spore cloud, which can make enemies within a 25 foot sphere around it become held in a coughing fit and receive a stack of Neuro-Spores
+The plant is capable of using Vine Grapple against targets farther away
+Neuro-Spores deals Toxic Damage over time and decrease the resistance to Toxic and Crushing damage
+The plant also uses Vine Burst with the advantage.

    well i meant more like a full circle around you and not so much a cone. but cones would be cool too. really there's alot of potential in a set like this.

    OK, something like Quicksand? I love how its radius slowly increases, just like if roots were digging towards someone.

    So signed, I'd love this.

    Vorshoth, leaf the puns alone. you were bushing them too hard.


    /signed, plants would be fun , probably a bit painful in desert with cacti


    don't forget
    "spore cloud" which would be a choking cloud.
    "hail of cones" Aoe- bombardment, ever been under a pine tree when a strong wind comes up....

    Summon vine(controllable)- that would be fun, a tangle of vines follows you around. with lash and entangle attacks
    Plant sheild- could cover you and act as armour or simply damage reduction, depending on plant type.

    Updated, with more powers to sew the seeds of destruction upon the enemies of nature.

    Something special planned for the next update for the thread...

    Plant Cage
    * Active Defense - T2
    +Resistance to all damage increases slightly
    +Resistance to Crushing damage increases moderately
    +Toxic Damage is absorbed and returns health to you
    +Enemies caught near your cage become entangled and start to bleed
    +Anyone caught bleeding near your cage gives you an Energy over time buff
    -You are Rooted
    -45 second Cooldown

    Should include a 2 point advantage similar to what Ice Barrier does to remove the self root. Otherwise...

    The Captain has something to say about all this :p

    Plants plants they're good for your heart, the more you eat the more you-- oh wait what now?

    vote yes to a plant powerset (although not entirely sold on the specific power suggestions as written here, fine-tuning can come later)

    If we can get the Champions PnP plant-villain Thorn into the game, that could intro lots of this stuff for MMO PCs.

    Also, Thorn has the power to animate plants as mobile monsters under his control. So, plant pets could also be in the cards.

    Plant Powers = Awesome. I noticed that the 'infection' rules play off of bleeds. I suppose that would make this work well with Bestial Supernatural, huh?

    Hey, you could even give Cairngorn Stoneblood some ACTUAL druid powers now! Hooray!
    It makes sense, if you don't think about it.

    just throwing in my support here as well.
    Plant powers are a theme sorely lacking in CO.

    one question though, has anyone from the 'new' Cryptic north' said they plan on looking into new power sets, or is this just wishful thinking?

    /signed and I completely agree. Plant powers are very lacking in CO. I know since I saw CoH's Nature Affinity, I've -really- wanted plant powers in CO (these and water, but that's a subject for another thread).

    Here's hoping for plant powers!

    It'd be nice to have some things other than Vine Swinging to use with the plant themed costume set!
    And perhaps it could be done with a few ooze powers to make swamp characters and Roin'Esh characters etcetera.

    Venus Fly Trap: You summon a man eating Venus Fly Trap that stays rooted in place but has good reach and can drain health from enemies.

    Creeping Vines: You summon vines that creep on the ground and act as a pet dealing damage and holding enemies (Diablo II Druid ability).

    Photosynthesis: A heal-over-time effect power you can add to allies.

    Here's other ideas. Power involving trees (Bark Shield?), power involving flowers.

    I wouldn't really expect a reply not because there note paying attention but because if they started replying to power/set suggestion threads people would start taking it as a definet that that set was coming next and then when something else came out there would be rage,

    Yes. I want some cool tentacle attacks to go with my Swamp King costumes. This would more than double the amount of Eldritch Abominations on my hero roster.
