So, Time Manipulation

Yes, Antimatter has a stop time power when he is at half lives. But I don't think it would be that powerful if we get one.

I just hope that Time Manip will be takable by Stalkers/Scrappers.

Dual Blades (Knives)/Time Manip Stalker, anyone? Or do I have to add 'Maid' to that before anyone will get it?

I'm not gonna lie, the buff combo system seems kinda weak.

I would really like a toggle bubble power named Temporal Field with a big endurance cost and a bunch of other bubble toggles with no end cost or a really small cost that add new layers to the time bubble and give it new secondary effects. Like a layer that adds mez resis, another layer that adds regen, etc. It would allow an interesting playstyle, turning the user into a walking buff area.

Yeah, I don't like the combo system, but I'll just wait till the release before screaming DOOOOM!!

Actually, on that note, I totally want a power in this set now called "Paradox" which can be a single-target stun that deals Psionic damage.
I don't wanna drag this subject too far off into another direction, but moving into the future would be the same thing as picking up and moving something across the table: it's now in a new location, and it certainly didn't cause any paradox on the way. The only difference would be that in this case, you can't exactly know where you're moving yourself to until you get there, though we can totally predict that with math, just like how we can predict generally when and where we're going to get neutrinos, who have this nasty habit of existing in one location, then suddenly ceasing to be just after existing in another location entirely as well.

I would like to see a role reversal power, when hit with a nasty attack you can target a mob and transfer the damage you took to them. Maybe make it so it can only effect Lts. and lower...

Rewind - Teleport to targeted location within 40 feet and rez yourself. For those times when you're solo and the damn mobs won't get off your head to let you use a wakie.

Record - Store a copy of your next 3 single-target attacks (but no power can be recorded more than once) in a temporal buffer.

Play - Unleash the attacks stored in the temporal buffer at the targeted mob. ~1-2 minute recharge.

All I keep hearing is "quit stabbing yourself, quit stabbing yourself"
