Comprehensive list of known upcoming Powersets?


Agent White

All,

Cheers to the Devs. I have lost track on all the confirmed powersets that are coming out. They are cranking them out so much (and so many announcements come in other venues such as conventions etc) that I cant keep track.

Is there a comprehensive list?

I know about:

Nature Affinity
Bio Armor (does it have some different name now?)
Martial Combat
Martial Assault

I think I heard about some others, but I have lost track. What are the others that have come out as being available soon?

Thanks,

Lewis

Also Psychic Melee, though it hasn't been confirmed officially.

True, that has been confirmed also.

I don't know if what Zwillinger said recently confirms the Primalist set/archetype has been axed or not.

Hope not, looked really interesting.

Not exactly what you asked, but there's the Primalist archetype.

...already mentioned in the thread with a hint it might have been axed.

Triple Chainsaw Melee.

I asked really nicely, it must be happening.

Wasn't it mentioned in the summit slideshow presentation? There's a link to that somewhere...

I suspect Tankers will be getting Spines soon, but that's not really a new set.

Buffing the attack that Tankers are forced to take is a strong hint that it's getting proliferated next. (probably to Brutes too)

Well, what Zwill said on the subject of a new AT was, "I am being brutally honest. We are not working on any new ATs." (That's from memory, so it may be a little off, but that's the gist of it)

Which... I don't know. "We were trying a new AT, but it didn't work out" seems more direct if it was actually canceled, leading me to think something is up, but I'm sure we'll find out in due time.

Anyway... um... yeah. Other than those, there's at least one more leaked melee set that hasn't been announced (which, to be safe, I won't name). There's also the Sorcery Power Pool (plus at least one other PP suggesting a Natural pool, with three others for the other three origins on top of those two suspected but not actually discovered, even unofficially), though that's not a full powerset.

(I'm actually the most excited about Sorcery, since I can add that to my existing characters rather than having to start another one. I'm not done with my Staff Brute yet!)

Thanks for the replies, I appreciate them!

A mix of Positional Defense/Regen (that means a clickie self heal) and a side of Psi/Smashing Resist. It'd make for a good durability set imo. Something that would fit the likes of Wonder Woman and Spider-Man imo (since they can take the beating...less the sharp pointies).

I came up with an idea for a set for it, but lost my notes on it. When trying to think of the gimmick for it I came up with the gimmick but couldnt decide what bonuses it would give.

I was thinking treat it like a combo system. 4 Toggles, 3 Passives, 2 Clickies (Self Heal and Tier 9). Set it up where the Toggles are Combos...turn on the toggles in a certain order get a bonus!

Was thinking maybe +Dmg, +RCH, or +REC.

But really it was just the basics of the above that I wanted in the set.

A combo system in an armor set sounds like more trouble than its worth. If you're a stalker with street justice or staff melee, you already have two combo systems to keep track of.

Totally agree, and, you would have to detoggle every time you zoned or logged, wouldn't you? Defense+regen is a good idea though.

Using "No new Archetypes at all" to mean "no new regular Archetypes, but here's a new epic Archetype" is like saying "We are not building any new houses. No houses at all. None"... then showing off a new brick house and adding "I meant no new houses made of wood or stone."

If that really is what he meant, then twisting the language like that is about as far from "brutal honesty" as you can get.

As much as I do feel there's something screwy somewhere, I don't think Zwill's the type of guy to do that.

Use of the word "brutally" implies he is conveying bad news, not teasing.

i.e. Primalists are axed. Get over it or live in eternal disappointment.


I really should do something about this signature.

Then why can't he just say "We were working on something, but it didn't work out"?

I am neither disappointed, nor do I have anything to "get over". It's curiosity and speculation, not some sort of deep emotional trauma.
