"Experienced firebenders can use the comet's power to sustain flight, generate exceptionally powerful lightning bolts, and perform other feats of firebending which they would usually be incapable of executing." from the official wiki.

Well that was the avatar state...

Your suggestion is too discombobulated, I can't understand and it's difficult to grasp. I think it's important to keep it simple while keeping a sense of difficulty in it.

++ The tremendous power it takes to levitate using fire. We've only seen it once during the SOZIN'S COMET.

Sand is extremely flexible, whereas earth is solid. There's a reason why there's no IceSpout in game. FireJet users blast fire from their feet/hands, they don't linger on it. Once their clothes get caught up in the flames, it would ignite. I'm sure you know how hot fire bending can be...

Okay. EarthSpout??? Really?? How would it work??? How would you make solid blocks spin around you without making it look like you're levitating? And FireSpout??? They would burn themselves. Imagine freezing a wall of water, then pushing it forward. I mean, we are able to control frozen walls of...

I have explained my side, and you have explained yours. You believe that SurgeShield has more possibilities while I believe Pinwheel has more. I think it's pretty self-explanatory that we all have our own conjectures.

Because FireSpout and EarthSpout are COMPLETELY far-fetched ideas. Pushing a wall of ice isn't really one.

Then I suggest you create a thread of your own outlining your propositioned SurgeShield, because I stand with my suggestion. It is similar to Torrent, it almost works like Torrent, and it has a hell lot of possibilities I'm willing to present IF this gets accepted.

It doesn't hurt to diversify bending more. We've seen moves that are similar to each other irregardless of their respective elements, and I don't see how this one is different. It IS possible, given the canonical feats that the show has shown.

Spinning your cursor around to create a Pinwheel using SurgeShield doesn't seem like a great idea, you won't be able to actually SEE the attacks coming.

FireManip is made of particles, whereas the SurgeShield you're proposing is made of water.

I wanted it to be different from WaterWave to create more possibilities to leave to the devs.

An ability that can be turned into a damaging, hell even a mobility giving one, is much better than shaping water IMO.

And that would be a much more pain in the ass to code. Shape into any form/shape?? Really?

Switching there would literally remove the OctoForm...

++ A separate ability can create diversity. IF Pinwheel will be implemented, it has so much possibilities, whereas Surge is just... a shield.

Not the same thing, especially with high MS problems.

Which would heighten the skill ceiling, thus segregating the truly skilled waterbenders from the average ones. Surge can be glitchy sometimes with its auto-select function. Sometimes you don't know if you're getting a shield or a wave. Left click, then.

I was thinking the same could be done for earth bending. Thank you for your feedbacks!! They are much appreciated.
