I'm a bit confused on the wow pow. [CLOSED]

So I've read a lot of the forums on Dark Spyro and found a lot of you people realy informative (thank you all for that!), but I'm still a bit confused on the Wow Pow.

So I bought the Portal Owners Starter (with Tree-Rex), GITD Fright Rider and a Lightcore Eruptor. (I am not a big fan on buying duplicates). So I've read a lot on the new abilities and even saw almost all the movie introductions on the (new) characters.
So Eruptor can breath fire now and I've read that it is his Wow Pow. So now I have a few questions.

Who has the new Wow Pow ability?
How do I activate the Wow Pow?
Is the Wow Pow already on the character or do you need to buy it as an upgrade and/or Soulgem?

Can anybody help me out? I'm getting a bit frustrated....

LightCore characters lack Wow Pow- that's the issue you're having.

Nibelit thank you for your reaction. But now I'm even more confused!
So a normal Eruptor has a wow pow ability and the lightcore Eruptor has the 'Lightcore blast'...?

Is this some evil plot to make us buy Lightcore and regular characters....? smilie

Yep, the regular, Series 2 get Wow Pow over Series 1- but not the Series 2 LightCores. Why? Because Activision. smilie

So let me get this straight.

Only the new remodelled characters get a wow-pow and can switch between paths. The new characters and lightcore get neither?

I do love Skylanders, but I'm a bit dissapointed by Activision right now.... :-(


Nibelilt thank you for your reactions and I hope you'll get your Sprocket soon!

That's exactly it. And thanks. smilie
Just to add in a bit more clarification though all LightCores DO unlock Heroics(but it's still a mystery wether their regular counterparts unlock different ones).

Wait a minute the new characters can't switch between paths?

I love Fire Kraken, Grim Creeper, Rip Tide, Trap Shadow, Doom Stone, Slobber Tooth, and Boom Jet. Can't wait for Swap Force.

But people have upgraded the LightCores fully, in hand, and they have no Wow Pow. Those parts are just put in from S2's footage.

What is Terrafin's Wow Pow? I was about to pick him up at Walmart but thought I would wait for more info, I cant find any info or vids of all the wow pows.

Press B while doing a Bellyflop to dig into the ground again instantly.

That was fast smilie thanks,

so Im guessing that the belly flop then does no damage? either way, that is worth getting, staying underground and spamming homing sharks makes Terrafin the best smilie I'll go pick him up at lunch, thanks again

Actually EDIT: the flop still does damage!!! didnt realize this vid, shows the wow pow, wouldnt have known to look for it though

I haven't tested him yet, so I'm not 100% sure on the specifics, you're welcome though. smilie Very helpful for Brawler IMO.

I really like Terrafin's Wow Pow. I've been meaning to upgrade him just to get that. It seems fun to use and it might actually encourage me to pick him more even though I think he's silly and he's one of my least favorites. After using the belly flop I actually hoped that was gonna be something the original had so I'm glad it's in.

If I'd known some forum users would be confused about wow pow/pow wow, and complain about it, I would have taken some time to read my text before posting.... Sjees (yes this is indeed sarcasm).

I don't really like smilie's Wow Pow, it seems a little bit bland. I would've rpeferred him to chomp his enemies instead a a new combo (well he's a shark after all).But then again, most of the Wow Pows dissapoint me. I still wanna get Series 2 Terrafin though, so I can stop resetting him all the time to switch paths.
