Need Help Understanding The Power Stat.

[Haventale]

Hi, so, I don't really understand how power works. So I got a Intensify mod which says "+X% to power strength." So, from what I understand, "power" is essentially our abilities right? So this mod should increase the damage of the abilities, correct?

 

So, where is says our stats on the right side of the arsenal screen, it says that my power is 150. But when I equip the Intensify mod, that number doesn't change, it stays at 150. So I guess my question is, what does that stat on arsenal page represent?

Intensify will indeed increase the damage of your abilities.  The power stat you're seeing in the arsenal screen is just your energy.  So, equipping flow should result in a change in that stat.  But then again, the arsenal stats have always been known to be a little buggy, so I wouldn't trust any of those numbers too much.  The mods always work, though, so it's fine.  As far as the energy being labeled "power", well...it wouldn't be WF if it made perfect sense.

The only way to increase your Energy tank (what you call "my power is 150") is by using Flow. Intensify increases the Power Strength of abilities, which can involve not only increasing the strength of offensive abilities, but also those of certain defensive abilities.

Ah, okay, thanks a lot guys! I guess I was looking at the word "power" in two different locations (intensify mod and arsenal stats), and assumed they were talking about the same thing. Thanks for clearing up that confusion, I understand it now! :)
