Maybe they just wanted to cripple it to balance out the rest of devices getting way more awesome?

Then they could have given it the Voltaic Sentinel treatment. Weak, but at least not mostly annoyingly so. Either way, crippling what is supposed to be a crowning power is reminiscent of the longstanding willful Blaster neglect that the current developers have been about rectifying - so it's pretty obvious they dropped the ball on this one. Here's hopingΒ they won't let another 15 years pass before they use a little time to revisit poor design decisions πŸ™‚Β Β

I enjoyed using Seeker Drones from traps to absorb alpha strikes.Β  I would consider taking aΒ power like that on my blaster though I doubt it would actually get much use since that's what melee teammates are for.Β 

Β 

But without the short recharge and targeted drop location that Seeker Drones has,Β this isn't even meeting that (very tiny)Β niche.

Β 

I'd say it's a good set mule for expedient reinforcement, but I actually prefer theΒ full set of Mako's Bite which can be slotted in any number of melee power pool attacks.Β 

Β 

As it is, this is just garbage to me, althoughΒ IΒ am still enjoying my DP/Devices toon very much witihout it.

...oh dear god, don't even get me started onΒ the malta gun drones >.< Those things are insane damageΒ sponges...and one of the most aggressive pets, they 'will' chase you across a map without a care.

Yeah, give us oneΒ  of those!

Tim "Black Scorpion" Sweeney: Matt (Posi) used to say that players would find the shortest path to the rewards even if it was a completely terrible play experience that would push them away from the game...
