In the Hero Con video someone asked about it. It was acknowledged, but nothing was said about it, or no comment was made. If anything's been said, in the past week, I haven't heard. So I'm guessing it's gonna be a "No comment" until it's done, if it's done.
It will be done. It's just a matter of when the Devs will get time to do it.

There are no words for what this community, and the friends I have made here mean to me. Please know that I care for all of you, yes, even you. If you Twitter, I'm MrThan. If you're Unleashed, I'm dumps. I'll try and get registered on the Titan Forums as well. Peace, and thanks for the best nine years anyone could ever ask for.

It was addressed, albeit briefly, at the Herocon. They know we want it. They know it would be cool. I don't think it's that far off. Issue 17 or 18 would be my guess.
Never argue with stupid people. They drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

They've said at HeroCon that basically Going Rogue work comes before customizing the Pools. I guess if a Programmer or Animator is waiting on some other department in order to continue to do GR work, they can use that 'found' time to work on the Pool customizations. But at this point, don't expect it until after GR comes out.

My thoughts on power pool customization:
There are only ten pools, with four powers each. Some of those are autos or have pretty minimal FX. But overall it's not much different than 3-4 sets. Now, 3-4 sets doesn't sound like a lot of work and by appearances could've been something they did at launch of PC. But...
Power Pools, unlike regular sets, appear way more often and can be used by everyone. Even something as common as Fire Control or Willpower is only used by 2-4 ATs at best. Hasten, Flight, and Aid Self are usable by everyone. While it's no big deal to add color tint to Energy Melee and call it a day, I doubt most people would be happy if the only thing done to Hasten is a color swap.
I expect the devs to pull a rabbit out of the hat and give us a lot more customization options for pools than they did for regular sets. I see epics getting the same kind of treatment that regular sets got, but I expect/hope that they'll look into giving us alternate animations and graphics for various power pool powers such as Hasten, Super Speed, Teleport, Tough/Weave, Aid Other/Aid Self, and some other options. The devs should be able to pick up on what powers are taken the most and devote some extra time to those. I doubt they need to worry about providing a dozen different options for Invoke Panic, but Hasten would probably be at the top of their list.

BAB already said that Power pools, total, would equal the work of about 2.5 regular power sets. He might even have some of it done, but at the moment the game isn't really set up to handle us having custom info for powers we are not locked into.

Has there been any word on whether or not we will be able to customize these powers in the future?
