Name:WaterBurst

Element:water

Combo Description:Watermanipulation(tap shift)>Watermanipulation(left click)> Torrent(leaft click)>Torrent(tap sneak)>Watermanipulation(Left click)

How it could work: player taps shift with watermanipulation at a water source to select it and left clicks to lunch the water manipulation.Then player left clicks on a water source with torrent to select it and taps shift to do the torrent for a split second.After that the player leaft clicks with water manipulation looking at the direction he wants to lunch the waterburst(has not selected a source) so the waterbrust gets lunched.

Shape and size:The WaterBrust would be a long and fairly big body of water.

A photo of how water burst would look like in minecraft:


That is the best i could come up with,but i think that other people might come up with a better shape and size.It could even be like torrent!
Damage:3 hearts or less

knockback: 5 blocks back and 3 blocks on the air


Blocked by:It could be blocked by surge wall air shield and fire wall.Also another waterbender could block it by left clicking while shifting, with water manipulation when the waterbrust is 2 blocks or less,away from them.The WaterBurst could take the shape of surge wall if blocked by a waterbender by left clicking with water manipulation selected while looking at the waterburst.

Travel distance:15 blocks

More general information:It can not change direction after it is lunched,the name is not perfect(i am not good at picking names so any suggestion is welcomed),this move is inspired by KattaraVSHuma battle.The water manipulation blocking idea came from kattara when she blocked it.Also the travel distance distance could be modified from the server owners.When in avatar state it could be bigger.

Seriously, let me point a few things out

1 Get a better name for the combo
2 Shorten the combo, you've made it insanely long
3 Explain your idea better

Maybe a name like "WaterStream" or "WaterBurst" be creative

Please clear this part a little up, i don't understand what you mean with:

How it could work: player taps shift with watermanipulation at a water source to select it and right clicks to lunch the water manipulation.Then player right clicks on a water source with torrent to select it and taps shift to do the torrent for a split second.After that the player right clicks with water manipulation looking at the direction he wants to lunch the waterbrust(has not selected a source) so the waterbrust gets lunched.
Also, It's "Burst" Not "Brust" :p

I recommend this ability have a short to medium (preferably medium) trial behind the sphere to make it look visually gratifying, but at the same time, not that much more intense.

Yea, Like the same length as regular torrent would be cool

That would look the best, and I suppose it wouldn't be too intense, not as strenuous as a Shockwave or FireBurst.
Well i mention that it could like torrent and maybe the developers could make a better shape.

Ok first of all you must know how water manipulation and torrent works:do do water manipulation you need to tap shift while looking at a watercourse and then left click the direction you want to lunch it.To use torrent you need to right click at a water source and then hold shift and right click to launch it while shifting.So basicly i am explaining what would be done because tap shift with water manipulation at the air will do nothing so i want to make specific what should be done with tap shift.That is why on the last move on the combo i say Watermanipulation(Left click) and then on the description .After that the player right clicks with water manipulation looking at the direction he wants to lunch the waterburst(has not selected a source) so the waterbrust gets lunched,because only left clinking with water manipulation will do nothing ,becasus there is no block selected.So that is why before the last water manipulation i have put shift because it would make the water manipulation but i just want the Waterburst to be lunched with and no water manipulation.You see earth and water combos are not added yet becuse of their weird(compare to air and fire) mechanics!Hope you undrestand now!

I don't see think this ability has any distinctive burst characteristics in particular. Perhaps a name like WaterCannon or something along that line, would be more appropriate for it, because it's more of a launching/hurling/shooting ability (as you have even used the term "launch" to describe how it is executed).

I also suggest refraining from adding right-clicks into the combo formula unless absolutely necessary, just to keep a more realistic physical element to player character movement when perform the bending ability.

I tell you what though, an ability like this would logically have quite a powerful knockback, and I think that would be a really effective feature along with the damage.

I like this ability, it could be a really great prospect. :)

Oh am sorry i wrote right click and not left click?I am sorry i always confuse right and left click at the mouse lol i am going to fix it(i added torrent right click when i wanted to say torrent left click to select sourse and left click with water manipulation after taping shift with it on a water source to cast it except from the last one where i do not want to cast watermanipulation)!Also i am Greek so i did not exactly know what burst meant .I should probably google it but i will do it now

Btw i feel thankful for all the feed back that helped me improve my suggestion;)
Thank you for bringing new ideas into the community. It gives us something fresh to analyse and provides the developers with more content they could work with. :)

By the way, I think waterbenders should hold sneak while left-clicking to block this move, it seems more realistic, like they must assume a strong, defensive stance (as Katara did) to warp its powerful motion. As long as they have no waterbendable source selected then this would be its function in such an instance.

Yeah,i will add that in!

In my honest opinion, there is nothing that really sets the long stream of water apart from Torrent's burst, therefore: Suggestion Denied.
