Clearly, Force Field is a set with strong buffs. However, only 2 of the powers are ally click buffs. One is a self toggle buff, and another is a self+team toggle buff. The remaining five powers all damage, debuff, or control the enemy. That's over half the set. It doesn't seem fully accurate to introduce it as "one of the Buff powersets". It also seems misleading to phrase it the way it does, since it seems to make "Buff powersets" seem like official terminology in the same way that "Defender powersets" and "Pool powersets" are. So, I'm going to change "one of the Buff powersets" back to "one of the powersets" for now. -- [[User:Sekoia|Sekoia]] 06:31, 24 February 2007 (PST) | Clearly, Force Field is a set with strong buffs.

Buff set
Clearly, Force Field is a set with strong buffs. However, only 2 of the powers are ally click buffs. One is a self toggle buff, and another is a self+team toggle buff. The remaining five powers all damage, debuff, or control the enemy. That's over half the set. It doesn't seem fully accurate to introduce it as "one of the Buff powersets". It also seems misleading to phrase it the way it does, since it seems to make "Buff powersets" seem like official terminology in the same way that "Defender powersets" and "Pool powersets" are. So, I'm going to change "one of the Buff powersets" back to "one of the powersets" for now. -- Sekoia 06:31, 24 February 2007 (PST)
