The blaster powersets have Defiance, it's been noted I'm hoping it's either a bug or something that will be adjusted later.
Dec out.

If you pick any blast powerset the mobs get Defiance. Technically, it should give them Defiance if you picked a Blast set under Blaster, but not if you picked it under Corruptor or Defender.
The devs are likely aware of this, but opted to take some shortcuts to get the MA out in this decade.

I didn't realize that, thanks. But does that mean if you chose the Corruptor version, they'd get Scourge? Obviously Defender blast would be best in either case.

Not really. Those designations are meaningless in the MA. They're only grouped like that for easy finding. But for each powerset, there is only one version. For example, the Invulnerability you find under Tank, Brute and Scrapper are all identical.
Dec out.

No. As above, there's only one version of each powerset.

Gah, that means we're stuck with the shiny, hero version of Invul, instead of the dimmer, villain version? o_O;;
Does this mean that Electric Blast is only blue, instead of the red Corruptor version? Guess that means using the Dom Assault version to get red... >_>

Is this intended? Because very few minions in the rest of the game have natural protection, and it seems like somehow the blaster mez protection, being able to use the first couple moves, is somehow being transferred over to the custom mobs, most notably the minions, even if they have no mez protection moves, like standard Regen for defense. I know it isnt fully intended for all mobs, because standard mobs like council and freaks dont get this benefit, only custom mobs do.
I bugged it, because it isnt really fair to controllers that their holds do squat. Scrappers get their damage for a reason, and controllers get their controls for a reason. One of the things that has really helped to save my bacon is fear, because that seems to still have its full effect.
