[general suggestion] different level of "mastery" for the same powers.

Hello everyone, I don't know where I should post that, I hope this is the right place.


I noticed some powers such as "Regenerationn" and "immortality" have different levels (low, mid, high etc ...) or were divided in different categories (type 1, type 2 etc ...).

And I also noticed Regenerationn and immortality were nearly the only powers with this kind of precision on characters' profile. For example on Majin Buu's profile in his list of powers we precise his immortality is type 1 and 3 and is Regenerationn is "mid-high".

But when we read most characters' profiles we rarely have this kind of information for other powers so ... I was wondering if you thought we should analyze the "level of mastery" of characters' powers to precise if it's low, mid, high etc ... for powers such as "time manipulation", "soul manipulation", "reality warping" etc ...
 
Something similar was already discussed here. All in all nobody ever said that one should only list "Time Manipulation", but you should specifically note which part of it the character has (unless the character actually has the general ability, like many 2-C characters). Naming every possible application is basically impossible, because of to high diversity, but some can be named in the section for possible uses on the powers and abilities pages. Generally just writing one short sentence (or more in the notable attacks and techniques section) on the profile is better, though.
 
Yeah I think that makes sense. I think we should precise more often this kind of information on characters' profiles. For example for Yubel's profile (and by the way I thank those who made her page) she has telekinesis ability. So someone can assume "she" can use it to mentally lift objects/people only because this what happenes most of time with telekinesis, but "she" can also use it to mentally paralyze someone.
