Is this article a player guide? If so, it needs that template.
Additionally, what is gained by this article? Most of the topics covered have their own pages (Status Effect and Interrupt Time for example) and this page is woefully incomplete. I would suggest a revamp of this page, making it something much more general with links to specific articles. Certain things, especially those without their own page, can & should stay here, but most everything else can link to the specific article after a short definition.
Now, one issue is that there doesn't seem to be an over-arching thing tying all the articles about the Powers System together (Status Effect, for example, has a navbox dealing only with status effects, not combat in general). I would suggest that a revamp of this page accompanies a grander tying-together of combat pages.
Then again, that might not be necessary - I don't know. But it seems to me that having the Status Effect article not really tied in a meaningful way through links or a category to something like Attack Mechanics is not ideal. Perhaps that's all that's needed - a category for all these things. Felderburg 19:35, 28 March 2014 (UTC)
