I can't remember the exact stats but I thought more controllers and mms were made in recent months than other ATs? If so, these two choices make sense. You want to restrict something that more people want. :P

New players can still make their Warrior "Scrapper" and Mage "Blaster" as their first toon though. Ugh..such simplification.

mm in particular are a larger strain on the servers so the theory is less pets less server strain

it's like stealing me lucky charms, but worser.




i've had a great concept toon for a grav troller since i started playing over 4 years ago, but no secondary really fit, was hoping they would proliferate dark to trollers, because that pairing would work well, but Time manip wins hands down! so i will have to completely ignore your dibs and make it anyways

Time Manipulation!

Start the DeLoreans, we're going back in time! This all-new powerset will be available for Defenders, Controllers, Corruptors, and Masterminds. I will continue to update this post with real numbers as I get, uh, time...

View the full post in order to see the list of powers and what they do.


The powers, in order that they will be available (at the AT-appropriate levels) are:

Time Crawl
Ranged Foe, -Speed, -Recharge, -Regen, Special

You're able to dramatically slow the time around a single enemy, reducing their movement speed and attack rate. Time is slowed to such an extreme that their wounds will take longer to heal, reducing their regeneration rate. Time Crawl applies the Delayed effect on its target. Debuff and control effects from other Time Manipulation powers are increased on affected targets affected by Delayed. Recharge: Long.

Accuracy: 1
Range: 80
Activation time: 1.6 seconds
Recharge time: 15 seconds
Endurance cost: 10.4

Accepts Slow, Endurance Discount, Range, Recharge Time, and Accuracy enhancements.

Run, Jump, Fly Speed: -75% for 20 seconds
Recharge Time Strength: -75% * for 20 seconds
Jump Height Strength: -75% * for 20 seconds

Grant Power: Temporary_Powers.Temporary_Powers.Time_Crawl_Debuf f for 20 seconds
________________________________________

Temporal Mending
PBAoE, Ally +Heal, Heal Over Time, +Res(Slow, Regen Debuff)

You mend the wounds of yourself and nearby allies by placing your bodies in a past or future state where they are far less injured. Temporal Mending will immediately heal its targets and continue to heal them for an equal amount over the next 6 seconds. Additionally, affected allies will gain some resistance to slow effects and regeneration debuffs. Allies affected by the Accelerated effect will receive additional healing from this power.

Time's Juncture

Temporal Selection
Ally +Damage, +Recharge, +Regeneration

You distort time around an ally, selecting a period of time where their abilities are at their highest. Their damage, attack rate and regeneration rates are dramatically increased for a brief period.

While this is in effect, the target has any healing and healing over time effects from Temporal Mending or Chrono Shift significantly increased. Recharge: Very Long

You trap your target within the flow of time causing them to be held helpless.

That breaks down to:
95% from Enhancements
50% from Chrono Shift
70% from Hasten
85% from Global Recharge

So form a practical point if view it's actually easier to get than perma-hasten is for most characters. It is high but it's doable if you've got the Inf and of course you could always take the Spiritual Alpha which would give you about 32% of it.
