Overwhelming Force Set....

It's cause - for some reason - the IOs have levels, determined by the level of the character who earned it.
I think that's a bug.

A red name did say the minimum level requirement was a bug and they are working on a fix.

yah also they dont level with you...the statistics stay the same...so you get an enahcnement at the equivilent of what looks like your character's level -3....comparing to other enhancements it looks like they are actualy at that level...so its not just minimum level......
And it looks like the statistics also do not change as you level up either....for example....i have a character that is now level 39...the ones that gave the minimum level of 34 and minimum level of 35 are still listing the same statistics they had before.
Now i am not sure...but the outer edges of these look like they have brown dots...and that suggests they might be effected by a catalyst but they dont get effected.....i am thinking if they are suipposed to....its because the game is treating them as level 47 and you can only catalyze level 50 things.(i.e. you get level 47 becaseu you are level 50 getting a your level -3 version.
Though i am not sure about that part.
Anywise tried to give a character a missing enhancement....they are level 39......and gave them one that i didnt realize was a level 47...so that character cant use it......
Gave a level 50 character a level 35 one....and it has low statistics of a level 35 enhancement listed for it.......
not sure if this is the actual numbers or not....in game statistics show it is....but the ingame statistics are not always accurate..as the game shows numbers based on what the value is normally on some of mine...but not the current value when i exemplar....
So not really sure just how much is broken or not...only a red name can say for sure.

That's the outline for Attuned enhancements, much like SOs and IOs and etc have their own outlines. That outline does not mean it can be Catalyzed - Catalysts specifically only work on ATOs, as they say in their description. So Overwhelming Force being un-catalyzable is not a bug.|

The enhancements do appear to scale properly with character level - two Overwhelming Force: Accuracy/Damage/Endurance with required levels 42 and 45 respectively both give 21.2% enhancement on the level 50 scrapper I just tested with, which is the correct amount for a level 50 triple. The level requirements are borked, but everything else about the set's Attuned trait seems to work fine.

Ok well that explains the catalyst thing.|

Are you talking about the exemplar effects on enhancements? The game does properly display the adjusted value in each power's totals when you exemplar down. It doesn't display the effect on individual enhancements, but the total on mouseover should be correct.

However on my character of level 50 the numbers on the triple is still 19.1% for the level 35 enhancement.
Also when i compare to a positron ehancement on the accuracy/damage the positron of level 50 is 26.5% to both accuracy and damage the level 47 minimum level accuracy damage special from this event is lower at 24.2% for both...which makes it equal to the positrons blasts accuracy damage of level 47 which i have on a differing power.
Zoning and logging off and back made no difference....in game statistics window showing the percentages on powers shows the numbers listed on the enhancements is what i am getting.
Weird, that is not what I am seeing. How did you transfer the enhancements between characters? I used SG base storage, possibly that makes a difference?
I noticed this the other night, I noticed that some of the "copies" of the same enhancement were not stacking when placed in the SG enhancement table. Was wondering if anyone else has noticed this?
Yes I did send a bug report about it as well.
