So here's a question that popped into my head and I haven't been able to google an answer for.
Will villains and heroes who change sides have access to different power pools? I mean, the Patron Pools especially are Arc based, how exactly is that going to work? Will Heroes who switch sides at 50 have to do a patron arc? Will they keep ancillaries and Villains will keep patrons?
I'm very curious about this, because it seems to me that generally the ancillaries are more beneficial to the heroes than patrons are to the villains. Of all my villains, I find that my bots/traps is the one who loves his Mu Mastery, while others like my claws/SR brute really don't need anything from any of them more than available pool and primary powers. Compare this to my fire/kin who gets a fair amount of his survivability from his earth epic, or my blaster who gets to nuke everything in sight and earn debt badges with impunity thanks to Rise of the Pheonix.
There also of course begs the question of who gets access to what. Do corruptors get access to the controller or defender ancillaries? Which one do Masterminds get? Brutes and Stalkers might go stright over to Scrappers and Tankers, but who gets the Blaster Ancillary? Dominators? Or do they get Controller Ancillaries?
Or are they just going to get rid of patron arcs and have pools available for picking by whomever is appropriate for those who switch sides?
