Powers

[Skumboni]

What happens when you get all powers to max level? What do you get for going through the unity after the powers are maxed? Since I never see a reason for using any of the powers, I see no reason to worry about leveling them. I am wondering if there is any reason to do NG+ other than to avoid the form ID problem with saves.

Avoid it then. I for one am happily starborn.

I use three powers quite often. Personal atmosphere, elemental pull, and reactive shield.

Like you I don't think going through unity just to power up is all that needed.

But it is. You can only earn 10 powers per universe. The first 3 always the same the rest are RNG. No way to get all the powers on one play though. I was on NG+ 5 before I had all.

Since i never use any powers why would I need to find more of them? And reading about them tells me I do not want the ones I do not have.
I am interested in what happens when you get them maxed. Do you get something besides an achievement (you should get one for that)?

Not True I currently have 22 powers still in the first universe so not NG+.

You only get to cast one with reduced cost to, for each level they are.

But really, a part of me thinks the game would have better not to have those. Some feel OP. Then again, I don't like the Main Quest or the whole Starborn theme.

[NoJustNo]

Starborn powers are meaningless.

It's only a cheap gimmick that can be entirely bypassed. Not worth leveling again and again through this terribly designed temple "minigame".
The few powers that add interesting utility aspect are useful even if they are never leveled past their first tier.

So... No. There's no other point for NG+ than to clean saves. Starborn writing, powers, the main quest, the Constellation companions, the ship and the suit are hands down the worst elements of the game.

Unless you need to clean your save from bloat, there's no reason for NG+.

I have all the powers and i haven't stepped into NG+. I just kept asking Vlad about temples and got Barrett's quest.
