Powers
Ritual of Primal Summoning
- Added new Cosmic gear as possible drops from Teleiosaurus, Qwyijibo, Eidolon and Kigatilik. These will be on live at a later date.
- Added new set bonuses to Cosmic gear.
Cosmic Strike
- Directly damaging with a ranged or melee attack will grant you 10 offense for 10 seconds. This effect can occur once every 2 seconds. Once you hit 10 stacks, the next attack will grant a guaranteed chance to critically strike for 5 seconds and will expire once you deal direct damage.
- +20 to all superstats.
Cosmic Ambition
- After holding block for at least 2 sec, applies Cosmic Ambition which applies the 'blocking' flag on you, and increases your Knock resistance, Hold Resistance, and damage resistance to a small degree. This effect lasts up to 10 secs, or until you are directly damaged. You cannot trigger this effect again for 10 seconds. Once expired, increases your threat generation by 10% for 10 seconds.
- +20 to all superstats.
Cosmic Presence
- Increases the effectiveness of heals against targets below 50% health by 5%. If they are below 5% health, the amount is increased by 100% but this effect cannot trigger again for 10 seconds.
- +20 to all superstats.
Cosmic Wonder
- Reduces the cooldown time of your control and pet summon powers by 1 second every time you directly damage or heal a target. This effect can occur once every 2 seconds.
- +20 to all superstats.
Onslaught Gloves of the Savior
- Fixed an issue where this effect wasn't always applying.
Onslaught Set Bonuses
- Fixed an issue where the gloves were not counting the 2nd bonus when used on their own.
Misc
- Added Black, White and Rainbow versions of the Sparkle auras to the pts store.
- The existing Sparkle Skin aura has been renamed to Sparkle Skin (White).
- Added Black, White and Rainbow versions of the Petal Cloud aura to the pts store.
- Fixed an issue where the Petal Cloud aura did not scale.
Fixer
- Added Cosmic secondaries to fixer vendor. Cosmic secondaries currently have 2 versions of the same item, store bought and drop. We are deprecating the versions that are given via drops due to a limitation with set bonuses (there's a hard limit to the number of items we can have in a set). Cosmic gear will still be able to drop, but it will no longer be a different item from the store bought version. These deprecated versions of the gear will not have set bonuses, so you can trade them in for the versions that do. Mods in the gear will be placed into your inventory upon trade in. Traded gear will bind to character.
Powers
Ritual of Primal Summoning
- Changed Frenzy ability to a click power.
- Fixed an issue where this pet swapped in and out of flying mode.

BUG: Onslaught Gloves of the Savior does not have the +20 superstats listed in the above notes, and is still not giving energy to allies.
i also tried proccing wind reverb with wind powers, standing next to another player while teamed up. still no energy.
If the energy issue on the savior gloves is real and can not be fixed maybe have them apply a small amount of healing and/or damage resistence instead?
If it doesn't already, can having the 'blocking' flag on you increase Personal Force Field's shield regeneration rate as it does for normal blocking?
I guess just for a sanity check, try to re-equip the gear, and make sure the allies nearby aren't at full energy. Everything you listed above works when testing it. (Dark transfusion will only work on click, energy regeneration won't trigger it).
Training dummies and pets don't use energy, so they won't gain any.
I set up a test with this as well using two other players, and am unable to grant energy to the allied player while using the Savior gloves.
I attempted to trigger the following energy gains:
1) Concentration toggle form
2) Killer Instinct Energy Unlock
3) Power Surge (Distinguished Utility passive)
4) Static Field (Force Eruption adv.) on myself, but not on the allied player
5) Gunslinger Energy Builder
6) ZStore Energy Consumable (Granted energy as normal, but not via saviors)
7) Frosty Beverage (Granted energy as normal, but not via saviors)
I attempted the following ally arrangements, in and out of combat as possible:
1) In a standard team
2) In a teamup (Destroids Rise Again OM)
3) Not in a team
4) At 0', 20', 50', and 100' (I know the gloves have a 50' range, but wanted to make sure the sphere wasn't inverted or something, if that's even possible)
5) 100' or more away from any possible objects (crates, etc.)
6) 100' or more away from any possible allied NPCs (PH trainers, who have no E-Bar)
7) With no super stats on the recipient
8) Removing and reequipping the gloves
9) With and without mods slotted
I hope these examples help narrow it down. If there are any further details that will help, I will try to provide them. Thank you for your attention in troubleshooting this. The effect has no visual indicator on the Savior-using player or the recipient, so I'm unable to tell if the effect is not triggering/applying at all, or if it's triggering but not granting X energy.
Tying a gear's special effect to the usefulness of a single passive is bad.
Should probably be something for when we have PFF related changes.
Blocking normally already doubles PFF's shield regen value.

__________________________
The red cosmic secondary healer glove is checking its 5% condition after the heal is done. 6k heal pushes the dummy from 0% to 6% hp, which exceeds 5%. I don't believe its intended to work this way. Please change the checks to the time of the heal.
I tried all this and cannot get savior gloves to give energy to other players in any way. I tried some other random things too like only wearing ov secondaries, different roles, in and out of the powerhouse, and nothing works. Is the effect possibly only enabled for gm/dev?
EDIT: I also tested buying a fresh savior glove from the ov vendor, and it still doesn't grant energy to allies when i gain energy.
BUG: I tried the Cosmic Strike together with Cosmic Talons of Wrath and Cosmic Vision of Wrath on my DPS Novastar and the +100 Offense and +10 to All Stats listed as 3 piece bonuses on Cosmic Strike did not actually appear according to my character sheet.
My Primary Gear is Distinguished.
As a side note, the Cosmic Talons of Wrath, which I purchased on PTS does also list the 3 piece +10 to All Stats bonus, but the Cosmic Vision of Wrath which came over from live only lists the 2 piece bonus.
New cosmic gear is useless and nobody will bother farming it, because it is worse than gear we currently have available in game.
Prediction:
This post will be ignored and cosmic gear will be released as it is right now, leading to majority of people continuing to ignore CO and playing other games, because developers still do not understand that good rewards = player happiness, and players log into games only if there is some happiness to gain, if there's none, there is no reason for us to do that.
Thank you for that. I did as you suggested and it fixed the issue with the set bonuses not appearing.
So does that mean that when the drop from cosmics they will not be Bind on Pickup instead of Bind on Equip? No longer being able to trade/sell cosmic secondary drops is a significant economy change.
