Orphaned as a child, Ororo Munroe developed the power to command the forces of nature -- and once was worshipped as a goddess in Africa for that very reason. As a member of the X-Men, she wields her unique genetic gifts to protect a world that hates and fears mutants!
RECOMMENDATIONS
Storm is the ULTIMATE member of the team. If she had Wolvie's healing factor, she'd be invincible when maxed out in most of her powers. Her Lightning Strike is already powerful to begin with, but once you get it up to a max of Chain Lightning, you can take groups of enemies out with a single strike. At Legend Lightning, she takes EVERYTHING out. So build this up as fast as you can. Early on, build up her Whirlwind a bit too, as this can be useful while at lower levels in keeping enemies away when you're being swarmed. I didn't find too much use for her Storm Shield, as I pretty much cleared the area before I needed it. Her Cyclone Fury is good for when you're really in a pinch, but I didn't really need it too much after I got her Legend Lightning full. I only used it once I was out of energy. Aside from her Lightning Strike, the Lightning Fury/ Lightning Rage is something you should max out as quickly as possible. She's a very POWERFUL melee fighter once this is built up. And she takes out the environment (walls and stuff) easily. Like Cyclops, her Leadership is useful for building Experience quickly. And her Flight is necessary for some missions where you may not want Rogue or Jean on the team. Her Whirlwind puts out fires and her Lightning Strike can weld (for the Aribiter and doors). Strike, Body, and Focus are the places you want to add points to.
