Collateral Damage

This new patch... well yeah... no need to mention the cop thing since there are enough threads about it... I'll just say with those amazing rewards I can see why they made it harder to complete.
One of the changes was Mace Mastery/Personal Force Field - This power has been replaced with Focused Accuracy. I guess to make sure trollers couldn't get PFF
twice, but in taking it out of the patron pool, this has now messed up some Dominators and not to mention any Dominator that has PFF NOW has to respect out of it because it no longer works! That is messed up... so the question is... are the devs going to address this or does this get filed under the "oh well" category

I understand your concern, but since we the players aren't mind readers, we really can't say whether the Devs plan to "address" it.

Have you PM'd one or more of them?

That's odd, I wasn't aware you speak for all players... and for the record, my question was pointed towards someone that might know if this was a mistake and wasn't meant to affect doms, since doms we not mentioned on the patch notes list... or maybe a dev might answer it. (imagine that)

See, that's how questions work, you ask them and hope they get answered by the RIGHT people (No mind reading needed)

Devs don't make a habit of visiting this forum AFAIK, they seem to let us police ourselves for the most part. The players always know more than them anyway, right?

From the thread in the Dominators forum at http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showthread.php?t=240081 , the players seem to think this is a bug.

I usually head to AT-specific boards when changes like that happen, as the discussions usually make the most (least?) progress there as far as trying to figure out if it's WAI or a bug.

At the top of every single thread in this section of the board:

Devs rarely respond to threads in this forum. If you want an answer from a dev, PM them.

Thank you... that is what I wanted to know

I would imagine what happened in this situation is they have the Dom APP instanced FROM the Controller APP, and thus when they edited the code for the Controller APP, it changed the Dom one as well, as a result, and they didn't think to check the code. I could be very very wrong, but it's likely, haha. I'd imagine next patch will fix it.
