If I've understood correctly, it doesnt buff transfusion or other kinetics buffs because those are actually "casted" by invisible entities that you summon when using the power. I7 will allow buffs transfering to summons, which should hopefully fix this.
I picked it on my Defender, and realised the buff it gives to Kin powers is, well, pathetic. As he said, I7 should sort this out.

@Miss Chief
Thanks both, that's everything I need to know.
Power build up is mainly used atm to buff the endurance drain for say kinetic/elecs or kinetics/* in PvP. It does buff speed boost's endurance recovery, only thing is duration is to short to buff a whole team with built up sb. Power build up is also good for a tohitbuff with aim. I hear their allowing power build up to buff transfusion, so transfusion +powerbuild up will be healing insane amounts of damage.
Actually at the moment I'm using Power Build Up pretty much as if it was Aim since it comes with tis own accuracy and damage boost, though my favourite ploy right now is to hit PBU right before Vengeance.
I'm probably going to keep hold of it until after Issue 7 now to see if that release does in fact change anything. I can always respec into the Psychic Mastery pool (my 2nd choice) with the I7 freespec if not.
Thanks for your help guys.
I took Power Build Up as my lvl 41 choice for my Kinetic Defender today. I've been advised previuosly that it doesn't buff the secondary effects of Transfusion and after testing this does seem to be the case.
Is this a bug, an oversight, or is there a design reason for this? If it's not working as intended, is there any word as to when it might be corrected?
Also (and maybe this one's just me) but Power Build Up seems to have a really short duration - the Hero Builder states it should be 30 seconds, but it seems more like 10. Which is it?
Any advice would be appreciated.
