Denied AirSwipe should deflect only charge fireblast attacks

[MeskenasBoii]

Aang recovers from his dazed state just in time to defend against the attack, using a blast of wind to deflect the fireball into one of the massive walls of ice on either side of the ship.

• AirSwipe should deflect it to a random direction (not based of the cursor)
  • To make it less op and dangerious (eg. might redirect to nearby ally)
• Limited to certain amount of times and/or cooldown.
• ???

Logically, a stronger blast should really just go through such a weak move. Provided, if you want to reduce the damage of a Charged Fireblast that'd been swiped, go ahead. But making it into a random ping pong game isn't a good idea.

Ok. Should it deflect a normal fireblast then?

Having any element truly deflect one of their moves is clunky and odd.

Aang is just the prove of that. Also, it's not like waterbending: set it to deflect to a random location or sideways.

Just because Aang did it doesn't mean it should be a stable of any element, or the bending plugin. A gif would also help if it's from the show.

He did it with a Glider, so perhaps that tool could be involve.

I always post gifs that I can find. For this, there isn't one...

If this is going to be tool based, then this should be moved to Rpg.

ITEMS* RPG doesn't include a glider.

Either way, items and other stuff relating to them should generally be kept in the RPG section of the plugin.
Realistically though, this is a buff that doesn't really pertain to the playstyle of Air. Air wasn't really meant to deflect things, and having air deflect a FireBlast will really just bring up the question of why Firebenders aren't able to do the same.
Both elements really shouldn't have redirecting, even if for air it is random. It's out of place, and there are better things that the devs can develop.

Fire shouldn't. I don't see how that would add sense to it If it could ._.

Considering Firebenders bend fire, I don't see why theoretically, they wouldn't be able to do it. They are able to augment fire sources around them, and a blast of fire is just another fire source, just one that's moving.

Also if Fire shouldn't (which I think it shouldn't), then please explain how this would fit into air's rather mostly pacifistic playstyle that is minimal on the offense and has virtually no real sense of redirection.

This may have been only shown once in the show, but I'm not opposing it because it was only shown once. I'm opposing it because it makes no sense and the mechanic does not fit in with the rest of air's gameplay mechanics.

That seems a pacifistic deed... no? And I need mention it could just push the projectile to a wall.

I wasn't talking about redirecting same element though.

Rare Chance/Probability it could be perhaps? Just like an easter egg.

Just because the description said fireball doesn't mean that translate to our version of charged fireblast. I'm denying this suggestion, however, adding physics to bending moves is definitely something I want to explore for collisions.
