A few weeks ago, I was taking a crap and thinking about Stormcaller-specific exotic ideas. If I am correct, Stormcallers have only one exotic that specifically buffs their subclass, instead of the Voidwalker’s two and the three boasted by the Dawnblade. So, anyway, I was wondering, what if the Impossible Machines came back? And even better than ever? (In case you didn’t know, the Impossible Machines were a D1 exotic that granted Stormcallers the landfall node for free, so they could devote the column it was in to another node). Keep in mind that the numbers I included were just approximations of the buffs/debuffs granted by the exotic and not based on any data at all. I hope you guys like it!
Intrinsic perk:
[b]Lightning Rod[/b]
Grants/enhances the landfall ability.
Holding down [melee] while not in a super will cause a bolt of lightning to strike you, taking away a large portion of your health, but boosts your movement speed and non-super ability recharge rate for a short period of time, along with damaging nearby enemies.
[u]More specific details[/u]
[i]For Attunement of Conduction:[/i]
Grants the basic landfall node
[i]For Attunement of the Elements:[/i]
Buffs the damage and blast radius of landfall (both by 40%)
[i]Holding down the melee button:[/i]
Fires a bolt of lightning that does a portion of the basic landfall’s damage to enemies (or just enough to one-shot other guardians in PvP) within a radius but takes away 70% of your health. The user is granted greatly increased movement speed and a 30% boost to his/her non-super ability recharge rate for a short period of time.
This is more of a risk/reward exotic, but I think it would be useful - and, more importantly, fun - to use in certain scenarios. Plus, it’s powerful, but it’s somewhat balanced due to the user’s loss of health. I would absolutely love for this to be a possibility, but I’d be hoping for too much. Oh well.
