Power/Patron Pool Question

[Clave Dark 5]

So "a character may select powers from up to four power pools per build", and a character can opt into choosing powers from one of the Patron Pools (after completing a story arc) but... if they choose a Patron Pool power, does that count as one of those four allowed Power Pools, or could a character choose something from four Power Pool AND a Patron Pool?

You can have four power pools and a patron pool.  Same with epic power pools.

Awesome, thanks. I'm working on a build - or to be more precise, adapting a build from the forums here - and this was an issue because I wanted to add in flight flight without having to rely on store-bought jet-packs. 

 

They just look so out of place on flying pumpkin-headed magic beasts, you know?

What about the magic carpet?

I considered it, but I've heard it drops your toggles when you use it.  The character I'm building is a tanker, so I would have to settle for re-toggling a lot if I went that rout.  I mean, I could do that and have an extra power slot, but I can be lazy.

Ah I did wonder if you were toggle heavy as otherwise the solution was obvious. I love rocket board so much that I intentionally took fly a bit later. When exemplared it gives me the excuse to use it with only 3 toggles to reactivate.

I've been tempted to take one of those two for awhile now, just cuz they're both cool!  But now's probably not a good time for them.
