Marvel Heroes: Storm Guide

Storm Classic Black Costume

AOE

Use chain lightening for AOE and it does very well. Feel free to synergize. The ice orb skill (learn in the 20's) seems ok, but costs a lot of spirit. One play style might throw out an ice orb and then spam your main skill, but chain lightening seems way more efficient/damaging in my opinion.

Bosses and Mobs

Buffeting Zephyr (or whatever its called) can really be useful on specific bosses and mobs, especially early game since it mildly stuns, knockbacks and reflects energy shots. Its low cost means its spammable. I would recommend finding a piece of gear that grants this skill at level 5 and never look back.

Gear

+Power duration

+Move speed

+Energy damage

-% spirit cost

+Ranks in Thundering Tempest or +Ranks in Stormcrafting

Avoid +Attack speed [Stormcrafting] as it actually lowers your Tempest damage

Storm Build #2

• Buffering Zephyr (1 point): very useful in the early stages. Not anymore later, imho.
• Lightning Bolt at main (max) --> not sure if maybe Stunning Bolt is superior for stun
• Sirocco Rush (1 point): Utility skill, just for picking orbs fast. Also movement and avoiding boss hits.
• Gusting Tempest (1 point): I love this Tempest. Specially vs melee mobs. They won't hurt you a lot if you manage to use it at times.
• Spirited (maxed): you will need spirit
• Thundering Bolt (maxed): playing alone, this skill helps a lot stunning mobs. It also does some damage.
• Ball Lightning (maxed): I absolutely love this skill. It is destroying mobs when they are near me. I just picked it for trying it, thinking it will be an idiotic skill, but atm is my favourite by far.
• Refreshing Breeze (1 point)
• Thundering Tempest (dont have yet, requieres lvel 30): I will probably end up using this skill maxed, when available. People talk about it in a good way.
• Crashing Halls (maybe): maybe some points here later, didnt use it yet.
• Flying: at least ONE point, Storm deserves to fly hehe

About Ball Lightning. I love this skill, when enter in secondary dungeon, and 3-4 special enemies come into me, I keep spamming this skills (3-4 times, not more because of cost), and virtually destroys all of them pretty fast and easily. Its just like bowling.

If the monsters are ranged , I usually make a thundering Bolt before Ball Lightning, so they will stun and dont hit to me. Sometimes I even keep spamming thundering bolt to them, or finish them individually with a basic power.
