They said the didn't have time to do it now, but the would do it in the future.
I doubt they would do seperate sets for Arachnos Widows and Soldiers though.
I really should do something about this signature.
Widows and Soldiers use the Brute PPPs.

Hmm, I wonder if that's an undocumented change or some kind of recognition bug.
It's niether.
VEATs don't use the brute APPs, they use a copy of the Brute APPs.
For example, the powers had the taunt effect removed when they where copied.
they may choose to update them in line with brutes when they get round to making all APP/PPPs 5 powers, or they may make them different.
Remember, the original plan was to replace powers (specifically brute pets) with the new powers, and VEATS benefit far more from pets than brutes do.

True. The whole 5 powers thing was completely unplanned and resulted from the outcry over certain powers being replaced in the epic pools.
Personally I don't see the need or urgency to add extra powers to the remaining APP/PPP pools which have 4 powers. But that's just my opinion.
Blaster Force Mastery - Force Bolt
Scrapper Body Mastery - That new blaster epic that lets you read what an enemies stats are.
So, some of the 'lacking' epic pools got a 5th power to compensate. The Devs stated they don't have the time to come up with new stuff for the other pools, so as usual I started speculating. Or, well, 'wishing' would probably be a better word in many cases.
So, open thread here for thoughts, ideas, etc.
Brutes
Mu Mastery - Short Circuit
Arachnos Soldiers
Mu Mastery - Power Surge (Banes are, what, the only melee AT that doesn't have either a self-rez or a godmode? Crabs can just have fun with this like Blasters and Dominators would)
Soul Mastery - Shadow Meld (Same, though this hardly counts as an actual godmode)
Leviathan Mastery - Hibernate
Mace Mastery - I was going to say Focused Accuracy but they'd hardly have any use for it considering the powers they already have. So I'll go for Personal Force Field.
Arachnos Widows
Mu Mastery - Conserve Power? I don't like the power, myself but that's personal preference. What else could they possibly get?
Soul Mastery - Darkest Night or Oppressive Gloom.
Leviathan Mastery - Arctic Breath or... Hoarfrost
Mace Mastery - Power Boost
Blaster
Flame Mastery - Fiery Embr... I'm kidding. Melt Armor?
Force Mastery - No idea.
Controller
Fire Mastery - Rain of Fire? lol
Psionic Mastery - Drain Psyche
Defender
Dark Mastery - Anything I could possibly think of would either be stupid or overpowered. Or both. Midnight Grasp maybe?
Power Mastery - Focused Accuracy
Scrapper
Darkness Mastery - Darkest Night
Body Mastery - Force Bolt? *shrug*
Tanker
Energy Mastery - Same as Scrapper Body Mastery..?
Yeah, some of the Hero ones were weirder to think of without going too off-the-wall or thinking of completely new things. So what do others either think or wish for? I'm curious.
