I really had fun with the original Bastion turrets in CBT.

Actually, the whole set up was pretty cool, before everything could be modified.

 

[Dxpress]

Okay, so:
1. Afterburner/Inferno Dash (Obviously)
2. Crater (Before 1.6)
3. Absorption Bomb (Before it was an HKM)
4. Gravity Pull
5. Immolate
6. Missile Barage
7. Trailblaze (The version where you created energy fields behind you as you ran to boost other players)
8. Healing Pillar
9. Resonating Bolts
10. SIN Scrambler (Wasn't amazing, but still fun to use)

And also alt-fires.

 

[NitroMidgets]

Bio Fart
Healing Wave with knock back
Explosive Rounds
The old Repulsor Blast
The Dreads Dome thing that I just can't remember right now.
Teleport Shot
Afterburner
the original turrets
Vampire Beam should have been an ability but wasn't.
Supply Station (hey I was a Dread so I liked having ammo)

 

[TankHunter678]

Multicharge Soaring Afterburner, Shockwave, Thermal Wave (1.3), Rocket Turret, Bombs Away, Missile Shot (1.3 and 1.6), Particle Beam, Turret mode... probably a bunch others whose name escapes me.

 

[Nunaden]

Um.. wel...
- Teleport shot
- Tremor <3
- Thunderdome :3 (nice to troll ppl in duel xD)
- Turretmode
- Explosive rounds
- absorption bomb (so fucking awesome when you just sand next to 10 enemies xD)
- ghostly triage + blinding poison trail combo (best biotech dmger build combo ever )
- healwave (funny to push ppl around xD)
- cannonball afterburner + burnjet combo (nice to use, and looked funny xD)
- burnjet + bomb rain (forgot the name) combo (nice as "im a bomber mother****ers!" ability xD)

(and ofc all from the 1.3 ^^, just tested the 1.4 and 1.5 on the pts, then i left FF xD)

 

[BlacK-SaoW]

You will enjoy Firefall 1.6 then! They are now the same ability go check it out! /jk

You don't get it.. as Firecat you could have both!!! Twice the Power, Twice the Fun!

 

[Dzzel]

-Afterburner & Inferno Dash (combo)
-Soaring Afterburner
-turretmode & hvyarmor (combo) #longLiveTheTank
-Explosive Rounds
-multi turret's ( when you could have up-to 9)
-Shockwave ( a assault best friend )

 

[Bl4ckhunter]

Combat Shotgun, Plasma Cannon (arsenal ability, cant remember exact name)(the original Finger-of-God one, not the later Dick-of-a-leper one)

particle beam
anyway by favourite combo was afterburner+inferno dash+ burnjets, before they nerfed it you could literally glide forever as burn jets made you climb if you aimed it upwards while gliding, it was ridiculously broken but hella fun

 

[t3hsquirr3l]

Let's see, 10 favorites...
Afterburner
Crater
Heavy Armor
Rocket Barrage (Arsenal or TC version, any kind where the missiles home in on your reticle)
Teleport Shot
Trailblaze (the instant activation version)
Disruption (in concept)
Healing Ball
Healing Pillar
Cryo Nade

My favorite abilities tend to either fall under Mobility or Utility. Direct damage abilities definitely have their place, but too many of them and I start getting bored.

 

[Andronakos]

10. Afterburner
9. Crater (when it actually worked)
8. Shockwave
7. Heavy Armor
6. Rocket Barrage
5. Combat Shotgun
4. Particle Beam
3. Turret Mode
2. Thunderdome
1. Absorption Bomb (HKM version)

I really only played Dreadnaught and Assault. Not because they were easy to play, but because I... pretty much just liked to murder everything I looked at.
