Controller/Dominator Leviathan Mastery > Water Spout & Enhancement Sets

[Burnt Umber]

For a while on the Beta Servers, the power Water Spout in the Leviathan Mastery (Mako's) Patron Pool was changed to take Pet and Recharge Intensive Pet enhancement sets and not to take Ranged AoE enhancement sets.  However, in Release Candidate 1 and following releases, the change was reverted for Controllers/Dominators but retained for Scrappers/Stalkers.  I wish that the reversion were itself reverted.

 

Now, there is an inconsistency where Controllers/Dominators and Scrappers/Stalkers do not follow the same rules when slotting the same power.  I  also feel that the initial change made sense and added consistency because Storm Summoning's Tornado - from which Water Spout was cloned - takes Pet and Recharge Intensive Pet enhancement sets and doesn't take Ranged AoE enhancement sets.  Additionally, Controllers/Dominators are both classes that are more likely to have pets, so they were more likely to have benefited from that initial change than Scrappers/Stalkers do.

I get where you're coming from, but AoE Ranged Damage sets allow for more flexibility in slotting/set bonuses, so I'm happy it wasn't changed.
