The difference is that the regular babies spawn one at a time and have growth time on Siren, and pop out ready to fly in full groups of four on Medea. Moreover, the four egg grenades being fired to spawn the babies do 40 damage, becoming a viable part of your offense themselves. The charged roar is occasionally nice, and both paths are competent, but incorporating the babies, the Superbaby, the egg grenades, AND the roaring into a four-part offense is usually a lot better.

I would need to see how long it takes to charge and how much more it does, I would imagine that Medea path is best PvP however Siren is best in PvE

^ This would probably be correct.

Does anybody know/have experience with S2 Flameslinger and Double Trouble's Wow Pow Powers? Are they awesome?

Double Trouble's WowPow is mediocre at best and Flameslinger's is good but whilst using it you can't create a circle.

The Beast form makes him move slowly and is short-ranged,

Common misconception. He moves just as fast as he does when not shifted. He only appears to move slow.

Actually, yes you can, it is just harder.

THISS!!!!!!!

I think it's far, far easier to create a circle with the Wow Pow. You can practically make a 180-degree turn and still end the Supernova successfully. It takes practice, but Flameslinger's Wow Pow allows him to conclude the Supernova from so many angles that weren't even possible before, many times very suddenly.

Fair enough I guess I didn't try it out properly

Only series 2 can.

How I feel bout Wow-pows:

Eruptor- AMAZING! Powerful and long-ranged.
PB- Strong and takes down in few hits.

Does swarm get a stat boost while flying?

I think so

It normally says speed and armour are increased

Best path for bouncer?

I-Beam Supreme.

I-Beam Supreme

Better path for pop fizz, and why?

How do you get the gems under the avatar?

^ You get gems by posting and visiting each week. It is randomly given out on Sat./Sun. Also, you can edit instead of double posting.

Read page 19 for Pop Fizz. I prefer Mad Scientist.

After trying both paths for Pop Fizz, Mad Scientist is the better path. Your Beast form is slow, and somewhat boring if you ask me. The only really good thing on Best of Best is the New Abilities.

However, Mad Scientist provides some much better perks. The increased damage is very helpful when combined with later upgrades. The mixing of the flame and acid potions can create GODLY damage over a large area. With the triple, which does not take long to charge at all, really helps when using the acid/flame mix for covering large areas. Also, it helps when sending three purple minions out that constantly shoot your opponent. The Beast Form isn't terrible either on this path. This paths makes him MUCH more fun and versatile to play as.

What about chill?

what path is better for crusher?

I would prefer Ice Lancer.

Your Beast form is slow

This again. He doesn't move any slower in Beast Form. It just looks that way.

^ Yeah he does, he definitely slows down in Beast form.

Whether he slows or not, the issue is that he doesn't speed up. Gains no charging attack, no way to quickly advance on fleeing opponents; nothing that a good melee character is expected to have. Kind of like Slam Bam before the sled, but even he could give chase. I do recommend the potion path.

For Chill: Whichever you prefer more! I think Frozen Fury is fun, but Ice Lancer is better.

Crusher: Rubble master!

^ Yeah he does, he definitely slows down in Beast form.

But he doesn't. Do a little timed race in the hub if you'd like. Run up and down the stairs and time it. He moves at the same speed. He just looks and feels like he moves slow but he really doesn't.

And Tashiji is right, aside from the leap move that he gets from the green potion, he doesn't gain anything to help him catch things at range. All that boosted melee attacking, as good as it is for taking out things fast, means nothing if what you're attacking ends up just getting away from you.

^ I thought he moved faster in the beast form........lol

You can mash A and he'll swipe forward, doing dmg and goong faster.

I'm trying to decide which path I should go for S2 Lightning rod. I know both paths make him an excellent character, as he was in Spyro's adventure. I'm thinkin I'll try him on Lightning lord because I would imagine that the wow pow would help him at melee range and the upgrades on Typhoon titan feel less needed.

Sorry if this already answered, alot of pages to scan thru, but my s2 hex was able to upgrade both paths, but hot head only got one, grinning pop fizz now, so are all the newbies one path only and s2 can get both?

i hear that rubble master is better

I just got Flashwing and Terrafin yesterday. Any Suggestions for the path?

Yes, only S2 can switch paths.


I also recommend Rubble Master for Crusher for a great boost in speed and maneuverability, and great damage with the exploding boulders. The Soul Gem also really helps this path. Rock Grinder only increases his hammer damage by ten, and gives you combos that are hard to use. On RM, his hammer is still good.

For Chill I recommend Ice Lancer. The speed you are able to throw the blades is great, so when combined with high damage and tripled is a tremendous force to deal with. When added your Ice Wall in front, tons of javelins are thrown in every angle, covering a large area with high damage javelins. Chill is a great character on this path.

never choose that path with the rolling stone attack with crusher.. in the drill-x level you will break the game.. like you use the stone roll attack and then your stones not coming back, then you run around headless and no hands... your totally fect and must quit the whole game... no it dont help go back to flynns ship... you must actually quit the game.

What do you think though?

Definiatly rubble master because you can escape from attacks the go back and explode the rocks at the enemy.

Someone on this forum made an interesting statement that said that you should try the path of each skylander that you don't prefer, and see how that works. From this method, I found out I really like Frozen Fury, Wasp Stormer and Nether Wielder! I still prefer the other paths though.

Terrafin, sandhog, he becomes almost invincible while underground, and as you stay under ground you can also create some damage.

Flashwing, I prefer super spinner, the crystal upgrade path can be a bit of a nuisance, since you need walls, and. Not everywhere has walls.

I agree with Flashwing. I really wish they had integrated the ability to switch paths in the Newlanders since I hd gone down Super Spinner, regretted it, and gone down Super Shards. While working hard to gather that money and experience in Nightmare mode, I knew that Flashwing is like MEANT for Super Spinner and Super Shards can be kinda useless...

When it comes to Terrafin, clue I have none.

i know right?

really terrafin is good in both paths, brawler is really good, sandhog is awesome

Nope, you are so wrong man.

1.First of all, it's the purple potion that gives you the leap attack, not the green one (still sucks though, I didn't really like that attack).

2. Second of all, you got that backwards. He doesn't look or feel that he goes slower, but he really does. He only loses a slight amount of speed though, I tried running around the hubworld.

3. Third of all, that's exactly what I was trying to say. No matter what you do, the Beast form is terrible for catching your opponent and you can easily be harmed at a distance in PvP, no great speed or long range (he's slow enough already, in both Beast and Normal form), his low speed and very low health are problematic, he doesn't take a long time to defeat. What's even worse is that you can't move for 3.5 seconds while transforming into the Beast, either leaving yourself open to attack or giving your opponent time to escape from you.

I'm just gonna go with one path recommendation.

I keep mixing up the potions, my bad.

And are you sure this isn't just a placebo effect and you've convinced yourself that he moves slower in Beast form due to how it feels and appears? I can see how some would consider it a small drop in speed but it appears to be so insignficant and almost negligible if you weren't looking for the smallest reason to hate the Beast form. I guess we're going need a stop watch for this...

i think its the placebo effect. everyone says he moves faster, but because everyone says that, their brains start to think that.

So, What path are you picking for Hot Dog.

Burning Bow-Wow!

I have a lightcore , and I 'm also planning to get series 2 . I know that his Wow Pow kinda makes the Prismancer path useless, so I'm putting his lightcore that doesn't have a Wow Pow on the Prismancer path. Does this make sense?

no. s2 is amazing with his wowpow. it's hard to ignore a 108 dmg blast in under 1/2 a second. with crystaleer, its only 76 dmg. you can drop crystals, but its easier to blast em 5 times with the pulse to kill them.
