Today’s question isn’t directed at yours truly, but comes from the CO forums, though you’ll here it echoed there many many times in various ways.

I’ve got A question on stats and how they relate to powers.

According to Characteristic Focus powers are based on stats. as it states things like “It will also increase the efficacy of your powers based on your total (stat)”. So I look at my powers, mouse over them, but it does not say what states they are based off of. So I look at my stats, but it does not say what power types the stat effects. So how can I know what effect what and how? thank you.

Sound familiar?  Sure does, because we answered that in our last What the Flip, Skip.

But there’s more.  After the friendly Nogitsune covered the matter, Cale_Knight goes on to say:

Some kind of master list detailing what powers use what stats for scaling would be immensely helpful.

Hark!  Mine ears doth ring.  It certainly would, Cale.  You didn’t state your answer in the form of a question, but we have marvelous parting gifts for you.  Crank up the feed!
