Power pools/Ancillary

Do you think we will ever be able to take pool and ancillary pools in any order we want. I hate having to take medicine pool aid other to get aid self. Just think it would be nice to customize our toons even more and not have to take powers in these,pools we don't want.

Just a thought

Though this sounds like it might be a bonus, I am a bit worried that it might be overpowered if you can do things like take Spring Attack and Phase shift after you draw aggro to make it so all the enemies are hitting an impenetrable wall, or if you use burnout without the power investment to make it so you can instantly recharge AoE holds or Nukes and fire them off again instantly.

I think one of the reasons behind many of the awesome powers being later in pools is because if you can just pick and choose what you want, then you can get some really nasty combinations while retaining most or all of your primary and secondary powers.

What you're basically saying is that because those tactics are particularly effective that they would be overpowered if you could take them without taking other powers. But when taking those powers after taking powers you don't want would produce the same effect? Personally I think if people aren't taking the earlier powers in the pools, they're in need of a re-work to interest players to take them.
