Will any of these powers being made into powersets?
Gears is very unlikely to ever see the light of day; those icons have been kicking around unused since before City of Villains launched.

My question is, why are the stalker AT forced to have the swords sheathed only on the back while all other AT force the sword to be sheathed only on their waists?
To answer your question, OP, you don't, in fact, have a Katana Stalker, you have a Ninja Blade Stalker. Katana Stalkers don't exist. Ninja Blade is drawn from the back, while Katana is drawn from the hip. Is it weird, and somewhat arbitrary? You bet. But it's the way the game works, and something that was set in place about 17 years ago, so it's what we got. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Making the pool power a snipe that does not have the fast snipe option, so that it's always the interruptible long animation, would be a decent way to help balance the power by making it less generally useful while still giving it situational advantages.
But then it isn't a straight upgrade, and you lose that justification to break the cottage rule.

The Ice, Fire, and Energy-themed APPs for Masterminds all currently contain a single-target tier 2 blast attack. This is pretty dumb, since Masterminds already get single-target tier 2 blast attacks in the primaries (and they're woeful). In all those APP threads I made, whenever there was a Mastermind pool included, I usually gave the pool a snipe attack instead, since APPs are supposed to include powers that the primary and secondary sets for an AT don't usually get.
This got me thinking, what if we just replaced those blasts in the existing pools with snipes? I know they tried replacing rarely-taken APP powers before, and it didn't go over well. However, these changes would basically be a straight upgrade, so I figure it might be worth a try. The specific changes I'm talking about making would be:
Field Mastery: Power Blast -> Sniper Blast
Heat Mastery: Fire Blast -> Blazing Bolt
Chill Mastery: Ice Blast -> Freeze Ray (ice doesn't have a snipe power)
Replacing Static Discharge in Charge Mastery with Zapp would be fine with me, too, especially since MMs could still get a stronger version of Static Discharge from Mu Mastery, but probably would not be fine with absolutely everyone.

Update:
The checkboxes to ignore the 2nd and 3rd set bonuses in a tier in the Rank Totals have been removed.
They're no longer necessary. I've rewritten the cells where the set bonuses are displayed so that all the set bonuses that come in groups (Typed and Positional Defenses, Damage and Mez Resistance, and the All Control Types boosts in the Dominator and Controller ATOs) are displayed with only one entry in the selector. This means it's no longer necessary to manually set each bonus individually.
As a bonus, this means that the code in the cells to display set bonuses no longer looks like this:

Bumping this post to draw attention to the edit I just made, adding a second link to the version of the chart that has all my proposed APP additions in it.

Bumping just this thread with an update.
First, I edited this post to add a Stone-themed pool for Sentinels. They don't currently get any Stone-themed primaries or secondaries, but with Seismic Blast recently released and Stone Armor ported to Scrappers and Stalkers, you gotta figure it's just a matter of time, right? Might as well be prepared.
Second, at this point I've now created threads for every new APP I've come up with. I'm sure you're all very sad, and that reading the new daily thread has been the highlight of your day for the past two weeks. 😉 However, every thread I've created has been edited to add a link to the chart I used to design these pools, with all the existing APPs and proposed APPs together in one convenient place. It's got proposed pool names and power icons, too, along with links to every writeup I've done on this forum for each pool theme. I think it looks real nice, to boot. Have a look-see if you're interested.

Only Affecting Self is just another effect that powers can have. Their version of PFF just doesn't have that effect.

When you think about it, archery is a natural fit for melee classes, because they specialize in stabbing, and archery is the art of stabbing from far away.

Way cool! I noticed if you browse a users posts, the list just ends. I hope that's because additional pages for user posts just isn't implemented yet, and not because the older posts don't exist in the archive.

It's not a low mag sleep, it's a pulsing mag 3 AoE hold with a 30-second duration (100% chance of 8 sec hold, followed by 2% chance of 4 sec hold every 1 sec).
Already addressed, the description I wrote has it as only a chance to sleep instead of a guaranteed hold.

Yeah, I think new Crey are too much. It really makes me worried for the future of the Freakshow.

I think giving Poison Trap or Weaken to Blasters would be OP.
If the base debuff numbers were halved like they are for Blasters' version of Melt Armor? I doubt it.

Friends, I have a confession to make. I have enticed you into this thread under false pretenses. Only one of these pools that I'm about to propose would I consider a true proliferation of an existing theme (the Sentinel pool); the rest of them are an ENTIRELY NEW APP THEME, that doesn't currently exist for any archetype! 🤯

First: The simpler, is that story in the Dr. Aeon's Strike Force was not written as a two-parter narrative and was meant to be a lore dense piece of content, but that should be expected for content that is the capstone finale of an existing story.
Well, despite this, I still think a split wouldn't be so awful. The first 3 missions of the SF would work fine as a standalone story arc for solo players, narratively speaking. Some of the fights would have to be toned down, that's true, but otherwise I think it's a good splitting point. In the first 3 missions, there's no crazy AV fights, no Master badge challenges (just the first half of Best Friends Forever), and the whole narrative is just building up to the actual meat of the SF. The fourth mission marks the point where Aeon gets serious, so it also makes sense as the point where he forms a for-real Strike Force to handle this serious matter.
