A Journey to perfection exploit.

If you use double or triple jump, have storm fist + enchants that give you more recoil it is possible to mostly fly over most enemies. Since storm dash isnt allowed to be used well storm fist has the same effect if you use extra recoil enchants.

Good find, I don't I ever would have thought to use that combination to do that as I don't use storm fist or recoil enchants.

Out of curiosity, what made you think of it?

Used storm fist the moment I got it, and then I just did trial and error with the enchants. Then I noticed how it could be used to exploit a journey to perfection and came here. My playstyle has always revolved around maximum moveability and then using that to dodge everything. Bronze age charecters all the way :D

Nice, I use Bronze age characters most of the time as well. The higher movement speed when combined with Storm Dash and Triple Jump is very satisfying.

I actually have a Storm Fist spell that's still current, I'll have to get around to trying it some more to see if I'd like it.

I don't know about it being an exploit but in outdoors JTP missions I regularly use a combination of crate-jumping (discussed elsewhere) and Flamethrower aimed backwards with a boomstick enchant - I use the same "jet powered movement" tactic to get through Freefall missions at speed

People actually do this still?

JtP missions aren't that hard anymore.

They sure are difficult if indoors on a city tile. Killed by an Earth sniper shot from offscreen, yet again. :(

One tactic I've discovered for JtP missions is to use the new Bubbles spell. If you aim your mouse right and time when you hit the jump key, you can essentially hope along the top of the map until the end. This works out pretty well, at least, until you catch a bird in the face.

Kinda like the earlier box exploit then.
