This is apparently a temporary power that you get for getting 1000 temporal points in Recluse's Victory and by capturing 5 out of 6 pillboxes. [1] - Snorii 11:40, 28 August 2006 (PDT)

I have a slightly different understanding of the way its awarded - apparantly it is for having the 1000 temporal points at the time of the dimensional reversion. I have been told by someon on triumph who PvP's more than I that the powers are awarded if you have eough points even if you 'lost' the zone.

One of my 50's has this power right now. Whats the best way to get all the relevant details ? A fight with a demorecord running ? Catwhoorg 09:37, 12 October 2006 (PDT)

A while back, before they locked off dismissal of the pillboxes, I had at least one time on my villain where I got to 1,000 points (swapping PBs with a hero), but the heroes won the zone. I did not get the villain version of this power when the zone reverted. - Sister Leortha 10:03, 12 October 2006 (PDT)

Official Documentation

On the Recluse's Victory page of the CoV site, the following text can be found:

"Game Win Once a side has captured 6 pillboxes and wins the round, a timer clock of 5 minutes starts. This is hunting time.

Winners: you get double temporal points for each enemy slain — now is the time to bring that up to 1000, which will gain you a Temp power Robot when the game resets.

Losers: The battle is lost but not the war — you have the ability to reset the clock and position yourself for the next battle. Killing 100 things (enemy, NPCs, and turrets) not only gets you straight up temporal points values, but also resets the clock. Remember, if you have 1000 points when the temporal reversion happens, you too get a temp power Robot."

It clearly states that both winners and losers--if 1000 points are there at the end--will be awarded a temporary power. --GuyPerfect 21:51, 15 April 2007 (PDT)
