In reading some of the various sets, whilst deciding what character to create next, I noticed a few oddities with how some sets are described.  Do you think any of these pointed to some additional aspects or components of these sets that were never implemented, or just artistic flourish/liberty?

 

Example 1 - Gravity Control:  "This power set allows you to manipulate the forces of gravity to control your foes. Enemies have little defense against Gravity powers."

> I do not recall gravity control having any special acc bonus or -def mechanic.  Do you think the "Enemies have little defense" part is just flavor, or was the set going to have other effects/debuffs?

 

Example 2 - Ice Control:  "You can draw moisture from the air to create icy formations. With these abilities, you can control ice with remarkable precision to dominate your foes."

> What makes ice control have "remarkable precision"?  Again, it's not more accurate than other control sets, IIRC...

Roflmao.  And then again.  And again.  Wait wait.  One mire time.  
 

okay okay.  The OG devs intentionally made the descriptions not accurate so the players would have less clue to how the mechanics of the powers worked.

This one time at Grav camp.

 

The great thing about Gravity Control is, any power with knockdown . . . gravity control.  He didn't slip on ice patch he fell because of gravity.
