I see what you're saying about Farsight, but I think that 66% uptime will be fine for it, as it does look like it does a lot. I think of it like Recovery Aura, but better.

Really I do understand why they wouldn't want it perma-able on just SOs, this is the first set that really combines a good deal of Healing with a sizable AoE Defense buff, so I can see that they're balancing them against one another. I'm just a bit neurotic about part time buffs. My only IO build to date is my Widow because I just couldn't stand Mind Link not being always on.
I'll just end up doing the same thing here. I'm sure I'll enjoy the set.

Hmmm, weird idea, but let's say my buddy and I decide to make a Time Manipulation duo. If we hit each other with Temporal Selection, are we still buffed extra by each of our own Time Manipulation effects as well?

That is a good question. I would think yes, because it just sets the flag and says that you have the buff. However, I haven't tried it.

It does technically hit open beta at 7pm eastern, but considering how often red names come here on their own you should be good. |

First, I'm glad I followed my hunch and bought those Membranes.
Second, +recharge without +recovery is gonna hurt.
Having read the list, I'm still trying to figure out what sets would be a good match for it.

For Defenders and Corruptors, I think any set without redraw, possibly Rad Blast or Elec blast will work well because of their PBAoE attacks. For Controllers, I think that Elec control would work well, due to similar melee-draining/debuffing goodness. For MMs, any Melee pet set.

Wow, that's definitely a set I'm going to have to try.
