Controllers and Traps
No word either way, other than the general "they'd like every applicable set to be proliferated eventually".

I would imagine that if Traps was ported to Controllers, you'd see a few changes to the set. Most of the debuff powers would be fine, I think (though you'd have all of the various pseuo-pet issues with some of them). But on an AT that can completely shut down a spawn, the two bomb powers might be a bit OP.

Guess I'll just have to wait, then, until Traps gets ported, thanks for the answers, folks. I can see Time Bomb and Trip Mine needing to be changed... But everyone seems to agree Time Bomb needs to be changed anyways.

Yeah I don't see any major issues with Traps on Controllers. Even powers like Time Bomb and Trip Mine aren't really excessive when compared to powers already available to Controllers such as Oil Slick Arrow and Tornado.
Did a quick search, relevant info is non existent, so let me explain and then ask.
I decided to reroll my Electric/Devices Blaster Epilepsy, because a long time ago there was a lack of Electric Control and realization that it worked better. So! I decided to, and did, delete Epilepsy and go to roll a controller, saving the name ASAP as not to lose it. I went ahead and then grabbed controller, Electric Control, excellent! Now for the secondary. Traps is exactly what I wanted and then scroooooll down... And there seems to be something wrong. And by that I mean a lack of a powerset between Time Manipulation and Trick Arrow... WHERE'D MAH TRAPS GO!?
I paused and then realzied, "Oh crap, Controllers are the only buff/debuffers that don't have Traps..." Rage ensues for a brief bit, then depression then I come on here... Was it EVER planned? Closest thread I found was from 2010 and that was a bit of a debate about the problems with it being a soft-control set, but seeing as we have Storm Summoning and Dark Affinity now...
Anyways, The question: Anyone hear or know if Traps will be ported to Controllers anytime soon? Otherwise Epilepsy will have to be held as a Electric/Time until it does... Sometime... Hopefully.
With Love,
Me! <3
