Powers

The following are powers in the Energy Melee powerset.

PowerPunch AssassinStrike.png Assassin's Strike

A signature Stalker attack. This attack does moderate damage on its own as a frontal attack. However, if it is executed while you are hidden, this attack will do tremendous smashing and energy damage as you waylay your unsuspecting foe. This attack may be interrupted if you move or are attacked while executing this power.

This power is unavailable to Tankers and Brutes.

PowerPunch EnergyTransfer.png Energy Transfer

Mastery of Energy Melee begins with the ability to transfer your own hit points into a punch that deals extreme smashing and energy damage. Energy Transfer has a good chance of disorienting the target.

Stalker: Unlike other Stalker primary attack powers, Energy Transfer cannot land a critical hit. However, if this attack is executed successfully while hidden, you can avoid the hit point loss to yourself and deal a massive blow with no penalty.

Damage Extreme
Recharge Slow
Minimum Level Archetypeicon tanker.png 26 (Tanker)

PowerPunch Placate.png Placate

Allows you to trick a foe into no longer attacking you. A successful Placate will also hide you. This hide is very brief, and offers no defense bonus, but it will allow you to deliver a critical hit or an Assassin's Strike. However, if you attack a placated foe, he will be able to attack you back.

This power is unavailable to Tankers and Brutes.

Recharge Long
Minimum Level V archetypeicon stalker.png 12 (Stalker)
Effects Ranged
Foe Placate
Self Stealth/Hide
Enhancements Enhance Range

PowerPunch Stun.png Stun

PowerPunch Taunt.png Taunt

Taunts a foe and all foes around him to attack you.

Tanker: Useful for pulling villains off an ally who finds himself in over his head. Taunted foes tend to ignore other enemies and focus on you for quite a while, so use this power cautiously. An accuracy check is not required to taunt your foes.

Brute: Useful to pull enemies off allies and keep them attacking you to raise your fury.

This power is unavailable to Stalkers.

Recharge Fast (Brute)
Slow (Tanker)
Minimum Level Archetypeicon tanker.png 4 (Tanker)
V archetypeicon brute.png 12 (Brute)
Effects Ranged (Targeted Area of Effect)

PowerPunch TotalFocus.png Total Focus

Total Focus is complete mastery over Energy Melee. This is a very slow, but incredibly devastating attack that can knock out most opponents, leaving them disoriented. Due to the exhausting nature of Total Focus, recharge time is very long.

Damage Extreme
Recharge Long
Minimum Level V archetypeicon brute.png 18 (Brute)

PowerPunch Flurry.png Whirling Hands
