Power Defense followup

[Yamo]

I can't give you a complete list, since Power Defense could be defined as applying to lots of attacks (to stop an Uncontrollable attack, for example), if appropriate. Generally speaking, the powers against which Power Defense normally offers protection have that listed in their description.

 

Alright, but which are it assumed to apply to by default? Drain, Transfer, and Transform are listed in the description. What about, say, Suppress?

Just check the description of the Power in question. Does the description of Suppress mention that Power Defense applies? Sure does. Therefore, yes, Power Defense protects against Suppress.

 

Offhand I can think of Dispel, Drain, Suppress, Transfer, and Transform as the major Power Defense-related powers. But of course it often sees use against NNDs, UAA powers, and things like that.
