Really it does. 2 months and you get any power set of your choice for 'free'. No one is bending your arm behind your back to buy them immediately upon release nor, as was pointed out, are you obligated to get every set. And they aren't releasing power sets every month, the last batch of powersets was back in early spring with beast and staff, then several months of nothing.

Ignoring anyone is a mistake. You might miss something viral to your cause.
so far i find this set enjoying and like how they decided to trim down some of the effects from what they originally were
So when is bio armour out? :-p

If you want to just get a feel for the set, then Beta Server is that way --->

I did on the I trials, clogging up the screen with bloody mushrooms and other ish, lagging out half the league. Oh the joys of overzealous devs who would not tone that crap down in beta despite many many many pleas for them at least give a low gfx option. Brilliant.

The development team and this community deserved better than this from NC Soft. Best wishes on your search.
It's true that some of the new powersets aren't technically free, however, you have already paid for them. 400 points a month equals 4800 points per year. At 800 points a pop, that means you can purchase 6 powersets - if that's the only thing that you purchase. This, of course, doesn't include the other perks you get for being VIP such as the additional free power sets, costume sets, story arcs, invention system, Incarnate content, etc.
If you are like me though, and suffer from what my wife calls the Pokemon Complex (you know, gotta catch/have em all) then yes, you are going to have to purchase some extra points here and there.
Was there a patch note detaling the powers and who can use this set or did I just miss it?

Primary for defenders, secondary for controllers, corrupters, and masterminds.
I just wanted to thank the folks who worked on Nature for making another set that is totally up my alley. I'm a troller and support type player, and I thought Dark control/Dark affinity was going to be the pinnacle of what I'd see in the shop in my flavor (I loved it!). But I love plant theme, and here's a whole fun supporty set that has a variety of tasty buffs and debuffs too!

I like the set so far, but I do have a question-
Any particular reason we have to be on the ground to cast Lifegiving Spores? It's not like you even have to cast it on yourself.
Why the flyer-hate?

Don't know if it's already been discussed, but is Lifegiving Spores being detoggled when mezzed WAI?
wasn't super excited about this one and was planning on passing...but then teamed up with an NA running some tips the other night, and it's just so very soothing and pleasant!
I may not be able to resist!

Mmm I thought only stuff that affected enemies was supposed to detoggle during mezz.

Yes, I love waiting 18 months to 2 years for new sets so I can have them free.
Wait an extra month, stop buying xp boosters or pay a $5 impatience tax.
I bought the 880-point plant/aura set immediately and can't wait to kick the roots and farm for loots when I get the time.
Thank you, City of Heroes, for giving me a superhero social network combined with amazingly smooth game play. Petitions signed with realistic expectations.
