I hope its Psy Melee... that's my pet powerset I've wanted for years.
Other than that, I could see a storm/wind blast set. Or a ray gun blast set to go with the new Retro outfit guns.
Sounds like they are just going to let us have whatever weird Psychic Melee powerset the latest version of Penelope Yin is using now.

Someone post that "take my money!" thing!
Psychic and Water are very popular and heavily requested over the years and they said that was part of it so yes.
I would say the are going to do BOTH Psychic Melee and maybe Water control. We shall see.
The development team and this community deserved better than this from NC Soft. Best wishes on your search.
They're going to do a heavily requested set? Please oh please let it be Carp Armor/Carp Melee!

If they add Psy Melee, I demand Psylocke style psychic laser katar thingies.

Kinetics for Masterminds seems OP. Fulcrum Shifted Bots? Jeezus.
I hope Psychic Melee isn't that high up on the "to do" list. I'm sick of melee sets.

That's probably the main reason why it hasn't happened yet. Either the Devs are going to somehow nerf the MM version of Kinetics or they've decided they no longer care how overpowered it might be. *shrugs*

Kinetics would be a pretty poor set on MMs; pets are unaffected by +Recharge, and Kinetics doesn't have many tools for keeping them alive. I'd much rather they proliferated /Cold or /Rad. If they do give MMs /Kin I hope they modify it fairly heavily so it can actually be useful on the AT.

So if they're coming out with three sets, at least two of them are Carp Melee.

Like any other proliferation kin would be balanced for the AT. I think Lothic may have some inside info regarding the Psychic deal. I mean I hope we don't have yet another emoting fisher girl.

Well, mate one thing they have done a good job of IMHO is the powerset proliferation. I mean I am sure there are some outliers but overall they have done well IMHO.

It's what he said. He said one of them wasn't Carp melee.
If I have two coins with a combined value of thirty cents and one of them isn't a nickle, I have a nickle and a quarter.

We see that the latest version of Penelope Yin is in fact using some kind of "unique psychic powerset" that does involve some melee elements (even down to "psychic claw" effects). We also know that the Devs have in the past "foreshadowed" certain upcoming features in the latest additions to the game (like the Tsoo in DA using staves).
When you piece it together it points to the possibility that they are using the new Penelope Yin as a sort of "in-game beta test" of a new Psychic Melee powerset.

I know nothing about this for certain but based on what I've seen Penelope Yin do they might come up with a modified version of the Dominator "Psionic Assualt" set with more melee powers to make it more Scrapper/Brute/Stalker oriented.

Psi melee is one of the great "missing" sets along with Martial Arts for Blasters that I'd really like to see. Here's hopin'.
I think it's more likely to see Cold Domination for Masterminds in the next batch of Proliferation rather than Kinetics.
I am going out on a limb and saying this set will be announced as coming soon as well as the kinetics set being proliferated to MM's.
I don't have an exact time frame on the MM's maybe next year, but I do predict Psychic melee for this year.
This is based principally on the Coffee talk 3-21 and my wild speculation. LOL.
Any thoughts and or predictions of your own?
