Epic Power Set Proliferation

Overview
Issue 18 allowed Heroes to become Villains and vice-versa, which opened up different Ancillary Power Pools and Patron Power Pools to the applicable Archetypes.
- Heroes who become Villains must complete their Arachnos Patron's first arc to gain access to the Patron Power Pools.
- Villains who become Heroes are not required to do anything to gain access to the Ancillary Power Pools.
- Vigilantes access Hero Ancillary Power Pools while Rogues access Villain Patron Power Pools.
- Characters who switch will retain their selected Pool (if any) until they Respec, at which point they must choose from their new Alignment's Epic Powersets.
- The Epic Archetypes did not get any new or proliferated Epic Powersets.
There is parity, for the most part, between like Hero and Villain Archetypes and the Epic Powersets they get to choose from depending on their Alignment. The distribution is as follows:
- Defenders and Corruptors share each other's Epic Powersets
- Scrappers and Stalkers share each other's Epic Powersets (with exception)
- Tankers and Brutes share each other's Epic Powersets (with exception)
- Controllers access Dominator Epic Powerets
- Dominators get new Epic Powersets based on the Controller ones
- Blasters get new Epic Powersets based on the Mastermind ones
- Masterminds get new Epic Powersets entirely
