Guide to Power Boost v1.0 [I8]

I have a Kin/Psi Def with the epic Power Boost. When I use a power boosted Siphon Speed it does seem to cause my powers to recharge at a faster rate. I will try and devise some tests and see if it is just a case of mistaken perception. Great list BTW. It really helps clarify this power's uses!
One question thoug. How does it affect placed AoE powers? Say I use a power boosted Quicksand with my Earth troller? Does the boosted -def and -speed effect only last for the duration of the power boost or does it last for the duration of the quicksand?

Thanks again!

Depends on the power. Some dropped pets will transfer the PB modifier while others won't, and I don't know of an easy way to tell aside from testing. If the buff is transferred, then it will probably only last the duration of PB.

In Quicksand's case, the buff is transferred so the -def and -runspeed will both be enhanced (the runspeed cap debuff is not affected, however). They will only have the increased values while PB is active on the caster.
