Overview
Ancillary Power Pools and Patron Power Pools become available to hero- and villain-aligned characters, respectively, at level 41. A character can only select one Ancillary or Patron Power Pool. Warshades and Peacebringers do not get access to these Pools.
Unlike the regular Power Pools, these are restricted by Archetype. The powers in these pools are selected from other Archetypes, and are designed to give each Archetype access to types of abilities that they do not normally have: holds and ranged attacks for melee Archetypes, armors for ranged Archetypes, etc.
Just like the regular Power Pools, you can choose a different APP/PPP during a respec.

Issue 18 allowed characters to access Pools previously restricted to the other side.
