New Power Set: Dual Pistols

We are pleased to introduce the first of the highly anticipated Going Rogue initiatives, Dual Pistols. Players who prepurchase the Going Rogue expansion will gain access to Dual Pistols with this release.

The set is a primary power choice for Blasters and Corruptors and a secondary choice for Defenders. Dual Pistols is also the power set of choice for the Going Rogue signature character Maelstrom.

What differentiates Dual Pistols from the Assault Rifle power set is the ability to modify every attack's secondary damage and the effect that has on your target. 70% of damage dealt by most attacks is lethal, the other 30% is modifiable from pure damage to cold, toxic, or fire. This versatility comes at the cost of slightly weaker secondary effects when compared to other power sets. In short, Dual Pistols is a set that can adapt to most situations by bringing a wide variety of debuffs and damage types.

The Dual Pistols Power Set is composed of the following powers:
