*Sigh* I hate to harp on the subject, but reducing this, or any other device, from 5 minutes to 3 minutes, is still too long of a cooldown. Especially given that you will be making the changes to devices in build swaps.

Is there a reason for not taking this particular device down to 90 or even 60 seconds? It's actual use in-game used to be a fun one for Pre On-Alert content. Ever since it got bumped to a 5 minute cooldown, it has become an item that simply collects dust in the personal bank. Is there some use or effect I'm not seeing that makes this device over-powered in some way?

As you can tell, several of the old devices have received no lovin'. I just addressed one of them above. Another one, that always sees any message I post about gets removed.

PLASMITE

For a long time now, it simply does NO DAMAGE WHATSOEVER. Even after the timer expires. Can we fix that, please?

As long as you're updating Confuse and Corrupt powers, any chance that Mind Control could be updated to work on all villain factions instead of only some?
