Power rating question

Bucketheadklunk

Can't find a thread on this. Why do you no longer get a power rating boost from changing gear levels (i.e. going g8 to g9) despite being able to see your stats increase? Thanks.

Because power is a garbage stat that you shouldn't worry about.

That was useful.....

As useful as the power stat.

Essentially, all you get is protection when you go up in gear level. So apparently protection isn't counted in the new power rating.

I think it's added when you equip the gear and not on the upgrade between levels

Used to do both.

I'll admit to not ever noticing that in the past, thank you for pointing that out. It makes me wonder if this was incorporated with the recent power rating change.
