Line #19 PlayingWith/CombinedEnergyAttack


1	'''Basic Trope''': An attack fuelled by the combined inner power of a group of people.
2	* '''Straight''': [[TheHero Bob]] blasts [[BigBad Emperor Evulz]] with the [[WaveMotionGun Tropebuster]], and empowers it with the energies of the rest of TheTeam, as well as a number of civilians present.
3	* '''Exaggerated''':
4	** Bob uses the combined energies of everybody on the planet.
5	** Bob uses the combined energies of everybody in the universe for the attack.
6	* '''Downplayed''': Only one ally adds his power to Bob's attack.
7	* '''Justified''': The TheTeam are robots, and Bob's using a WaveMotionGun powered by TimTaylorTechnology, so he can amp up the power by using his fellow robots' energy.
8	* '''Inverted''': Bob is UnskilledButStrong, so his other four teammates use their best attacks on Evulz, while Bob adds his energy to their attacks.
9	* '''Subverted''': Bob refuses to use the Tropebuster, because Emperor Evulz might target the civilians to weaken it.
10	* '''Double Subverted''':
11	** Bob realizes the risk is worth it to defeat Evulz, who will do far more indirect harm if he is not stopped, and uses the Tropebuster.
12	** Evulz attacks the civilians anyway, so Bob shields them with a combined energy shield, before going on the attack with the combined energy and the Tropebuster.
13	* '''Parodied''': Bob is getting [[CurbStompBattle curb stomped]] by Emperor Evulz. A fly lands on his finger, and he drains its life energy into the Tropebuster and blasts Evulz across the globe.
14	* '''Zig Zagged''': Bob absorbs the energy of TheTeam and uses it to attack Evulz... not directly, but from the sheer power of his BattleAura. Once Evulz is weakened enough, he ''then'' uses the Tropebuster.
15	* '''Averted''':
16	** Bob doesn't need any help to defeat Evulz.
17	** TheTeam all use their strongest attacks on Evulz instead of adding their power to Bob's attack.
18	* '''Enforced''': "Emperor Evulz is [[RankScalesWithAsskicking strong enough to defeat armies alone]]. How can Bob beat him while emphasizing the importance of the rest of the cast? Let's have Bob's friends be the source of his power."
19	* '''Lampshaded''': ???
20	* '''Invoked''': ???
21	* '''Exploited''': Emperor Evulz uses some sort of device to capture the power of the Tropebuster for his own nefarious ends, gaining an otherwise impossible amount of pure energy.
22	* '''Defied''': Emperor Evulz targets Bob's helpers before he uses the attack.
23	* '''Discussed''': "Everyone, we must join our strength together if we want to cast the ultimate version of the Tropebuster!"
24	* '''Conversed''': "Let me guess. The whole planet is going to team up to give Bob enough power to [[BeamOWar block]] the [[EarthShatteringKaboom planet-destroying]] WaveMotionGun?"
25	* '''Deconstructed''': Tropebuster was CastFromLifeSpan. A [[HeroicSacrifice lot of people]] [[InferredHolocaust die to power it]].
26	* '''Reconstructed''': Tropebuster was thought to CastFromLifeSpan but so many people contributing changed it to CastFromHitPoints. They were just unconscious, and reaffirm after they wake up that had they really died, their deaths would have been worth it to defeat Evulz anyway.
27	* '''Played For Laughs''': Bob uses a Combined Energy Attack for MundaneUtility. Everybody in the nearest few blocks collapses. HilarityEnsues when they wake up pissed.
28	* '''Played For Drama''': Bob uses Combined Energy Attacks to beat everybody, and becomes a JerkAss about it, seeing his teammates as mere batteries for his technique. TheTeam gets sick of it, and ditch him next battle. His attack pops and he becomes the victim of a CurbStompBattle. TheTeam jumps in to save him, but refuse to let him use their power for the Tropebuster until he apologises.
