Most Useless Power in a game?

Really? Since I found Electrobolt to be quite usefull since I'd hit the water to take out lots of people. It made things a little easier when everything was a puddle.Pifflestick said:
To be fair, it can be usefull when you half 1HP left and have another pokemon to replace it.Contun said:
I've never used Protect in Pokemon. You make yourself immume to damge for one turn, but during that turn you can't do damage. Unless the ememy is poisned ,burned etc its useless. I've never understood how it could be used
That super power you always get late in an adventure game that you never have much opportunity to use.
It's not that I didn't like it, it's just that it wasn't very effective against tanks and such. Swords could destroy them in 1 hit, while musclemass took about 2 or 3 cars hurled.Quick Ben said:
I would have to disagree with those people saying that status spells within Final Fantasy games are useless, I have been playing a few of them lately and find they are quite helpful.
One example is the Ochu in FF10, sending them to sleep and pounding them with spells will not wake them up as opponents only awake from slumber from a physical attack.
Another would be the use of poison against enemies that have HUGE amounts of HP (Such as the worms from Bikanel Island 45,000 health and only doing like 1,000 to 2,000 per hit whereas poison takes off 4,500)
You just need to know what the best time is to use them, not rely on them all the time.
In my opinion though, although not the worst you can get, the reflect spell can be a hinderance as any healing spells you may cast will bounce off and heal the enemy.
Again, many abilites are not bad, its just a matter of knowing how to use them.

After I got Winter Blast I didn't use any other plasmid. I beat the entire game with just Winter Blast and Crossbow. The only time I used any other plasmid was on the end boss.notyouraveragejoe said:
Ah okay. I couldn't do that. I found it fun to just muck around and use as much stuff as I could. Especially the shooty bee thing. That was coolPifflestick said:
The Wind Up move in inFamous if you're a good guy. Did loads of damage but took to long to charge making it useless against the final boss. Arghhhh.
How about Peach's Final Smash in Super Smash Bros. Brawl? It gives loads of food to heal yourself, but it goes all over the map so all the other fighters can heal themselves too. This is Smash Bros Brawl, not Smash Bros Banquit!
Also has anyone else noticed iJosh's probation message?
"User was put on probation for: Cross-dressing."
Just made me giggle a bit because I'm kinda childish like that.
