How do you know which AT...

OK, here's an odd question. Maybe I'm overlooking something obvious but this occurred to me today. When you "link" a power in the chat box (i.e. bracket the power name text) to bring up info on it, how do you know what values you're looking at? I mean, several powers are used by at least a couple of ATs. How do I know if I'm looking at values for scrapper or tank, blaster or defender, defender or controller, etc.?

I'm pretty sure the values are different for each AT. Somebody please tell me what I'm missing.

Maybe its diff for links, but usually powers say:

As used by Level ## AT


Doc Mech-Nec (Exalted): 50 Bots/FF MM
Crey Radiation Tank (Exalted): 50 Rad/Rad Corr
Servers: Exalted, Triumph, Champion
Alts: 32

Well, it does give an AT. However, if I type [dark embrace] on my blaster, it says "as used by level 27 Blaster". That, of course, can't be correct.

It usually defaults to the AT you are currently using.

If you click on the AT name, it brings up a menu to let you select any other AT you want to view the stats for... regardless if that power is currently available to that AT or not.

OK, I see that now. Knew it was probably staring me in the face. Thanks, Mateo.

Yep, I did know that. Was just missing the lovely green CLICK HERE text.

However, there is one issue, as I recall.

It defaults to the "first" version of that power. Which may list archetype specific additions (such as Tank's Gauntlet - even if you set "Barrage" from Energy Melee to "Brute", unless it is dragged from a brute's power listing simple [Barrage] will list this Single-target attack as an AoE due to it defaulting to listing the tank version.

However, any listed numbers should adjust for your AT and level, if they do so.
