I'm not looking for the most effective talent or spell here, but what one is the most satisfying to watch and use.

Me, I'm not a fan of sword and shield but ,oh boy, is shield bash fun. Makes playing sword and shield worth it - not from a power build but good times nevertheless.
Two handed sweep is great to watch as well - and it's effective but I gotta say after playing a couple of mages and being on the receiving end of some really nasty overwhelms, siccing dog on mages with haste and overwhelm has got to be the most fun I've had in a long while. Yes, it's powerful but it goes deeper than that  - there is some something really disturbingly satisfying in watching a mage being overwhelmed and oh, the sound effects, man...
:devil:
Maybe I should stop playing...

Fireball.



The Shield Bash tree is quite satisfying too, although it's hard to pick one out.

Yeah forgot about fireball - it's great. I also enjoy using stonefist - though obviously it's less useful.

I tried virulent corpse explosion on my current game. It's very powerful, maybe the most powerful spell, but you gotta be careful with it or you can kill your entire party. I think it's nature damage, so having Shale using a nature crystal and taunting everything to her usually works. Or make your mage an arcane warrior with shimmering shield and hope you survive the blast.

fireball and crushing prison are so satisfying to use as a mage... hey you, the ugly guy with the stupidely oversized axe- you think you are getting one step closer to me? THINK AGAIN:ph34r:



backstabbing people in the face with dirty fighting+coup de grâce also is a must as a dps rogue.

Blood wound, Fireball and Mighty Blow are just awesome.

That's one of my favorites, too. Every time I create a mage, I always fill out that chain. The description of the spell says it's nature damage but it's actually spirit damage. (hence the purple damage numbers and it works on Golems, which nature spells do not work on)

I like the Blood Control. It's not overly useful but it's funny watching an enemy turn and starting beating up his own ally. Posted Image

Dual weapon sweep is fun. It's fast, and I love seeing all those numbers go up, especially when you can catch a group in a doorway.

I have got to say I find dual warriors pretty boring - like a german car... Really efficient and all but somewhat lacking. At least dual wield rogues get the backstab animation which looks cool even if it is a bit odd.

Cool, gotta try it with the correct crystal.  Haven't tried Reaver or Blood Mage yet.

I guess I'm kind of simple.

I love Taunt.

There is just something about seeing a big scrum of bad guys all over the place doing there thing, and then my tank yells, 'Hey! Over Here!' and watching them all stop what they were doing to turn and attack him.

Probably biased though, since I always play squishy characters... so Taunt going off sends the "Don't worry, the bad person/creature/demon will stop hitting you now" warm and fuzzy message

I like the sword and shiled attacks.  I love seeing him take the tip of the shield and jam it into the necks of all trhe enemies.  :)


It's always fun to watch a Spider or Bear chewing and gnawing away when they use Overwhelm.  Especially when you drop a boss and you watch them squirm.

Yeah, shield pummel is pretty cool--it has a winning animation for me.

I love having a mage cast Glyph of Repulsion in a doorway, and then cast Inferno inside the room. It works for Blizzard, too, but that's not as fun to watch!

Momentum. It doesn't do anything specifically but watching a DPS rogue Ginsu their way through a horde of baddies always gives me warm fuzzy feelings.

Ditto on Glyph of Replusion.

And then, just when it's going to expire, Paralysis Explosion.

I have the No Follower Auto-Level mod, so everyone I meet has no talents so I can assign them all. I gave the Circle Mage in Ostagar the glyph line and used Paralysis Explosion in almost every room.

Blizzard's fun because people get frozen in their tracks, but I'm loving Walking Bomb/VWB. Just watch your health, lol.

The Punisher! Punish your foes with contempt! Although, I quite enjoy the sunder armor (or arms?) attack. The swing and strike is cool. Even though the two-handed weapon users seem to look a little retarded swinging.

I'm playing a mage using the spirit entropy lines for the first time. I've used primal/shapeshifting before. I enjoy virulent walking bomb though I got to say it's really messy. My mage keeps having to wash herself and reapply make up after every fight. And the other party members really don't like her, they spent half their lives having body parts splattered all over them.

Two Handed Sweep makes me giddy. Something about knocking a horde of baddies around at will makes mE FEEL LIKE A BIG MAN RAAAAWR!1 etc.

The one I missed...Force Field.



It may not be as advantageous as Crushing Prison or one of the other disablers that still allows you to attack the victim, but it's just amusing to be able to tell some nasty opponent "Go sit in a box for a while! I'll deal with you when I'm good and ready!"

Some of the spells or talents you get from Soldier's Peak are cool.

The one knockback attack for warrios that explodes in a burst of blood is cool.   I've taken some cool pics using that.

Also the mage spell were you sacrifice blood for mana has a cool effect to it.  I just wish id didn't take solong to do.

For mages dark sustinence from WK has a cool animation, also I tried Storm of the Century yesterday, now that is pure satisfaction right there.

I'm not sure if this is from a talent or not, but when warriors do the spin move and chop off the enemies head it is pretty cool.

Allistar has been doing that lately even on some boss level characters.  It is a pretty cool finish.
