View Poll Results: Which Division Champ is the Best at Steal Energy?
What changed with Flurry? Do you mean in conjunction with another power? Sorry..legit question..not bein a smartass lol
With Flurry, you complete the action even if the power is no longer showing. On click 4, If Joker attacks and heals to click 3 with Steal Energy, under the 2012 rules the action ends, and under the 2013 rules the second attack allowed by Flurry occurs, and Joker can heal to click 2.
That being said, with only one click where it's relevant, there are figures that got much more a boost from the combo than that one.

Pretty sure I follow this. It brings me to a question about Skaar..or anyone with Flurry/BCF.
If I throw the Vampirism feat on them...and pick up Skadi's Hammer later...can I Charge/Flurry/BCF/Exploit/Steal Energy? And this works in what way under the new rules?
Ill be using something like this tomorrow, minus the feat. Just wanted to be able to throw Steal Energy into the question for future reference.
I really considered that Joker. He just didn't quite fit anywhere.
As for the change to Flurry, you now resolve the 2nd attack even if you lose the power.

You can combine all but the bolded two powers. Flurry and Exploit Weakness are both Close Combat Actions, so you'd have to choose between one of them.
Otherwise, good to go.

(Attack) Symbiote Blade: Whenever Carnage makes a close or ranged combat attack, you may roll a d6. If you do, Carnage's damage value becomes the result and is locked until the attack resolves.
(Damage) Massacres Are My Specialty: Carnage can use Flurry, Plasticity, and Steal Energy.
Only 3 clicks of it, and it takes him off his best clicks.
Those are legitimate reasons IF your a figure that has to use steal energy normally. But the fact he can use it with ranged attacks should trump any and all other short comings. I think this is a simple case of being overlooked......and you just don't like the color purple.

He can't even use it in Close Combat! This isn't a case of improvement, it's a case of variation, and one that's not necessarily better. Add that he's only got 3 clicks of it, and I'd say I have enough reason to justify his not making the top 4 in any given category.
Agreed. I think he should have been in the solo division. The combo of Mystics+Power Cosmic+Steal Energy+power copying makes him a beast, even if he is pricey.
Although I agree that the Inbetweener is a mean mofo and is ridiculously powerful when he ko's an opponent from close. He can heal THREE clicks! One from steal energy and two from the soul gems ability. Also inbetweener can copy the Multiattack ability which makes him well worth his points.
However I don't think he actually qualifies for any of these divisions. He doesn't actually have the standard power 'steal energy'. He gains it with the use of the soul gem. Stand alone he's actually only a 290 point figure without steal energy. Even if his polar opposite special allows him to copy it....its still relying on the opponent actually using a figure with steal energy. I love the elders of the universe! Whizkids give us the contemplator, the obliterator, the trader, the architect and Ego the living planet! Also give us a 'Stranger' WITH the elders keyword!

What about other 'shades' of purple? Do you like them? Like burgundy or royal purple. Ooh! How about the little cloth sack that the crown royal bottles come in? Those are purple!

I'm very confused about the direction this conversation has gone...
