You assume it's a combat only power.

It allows a person to see the future and all possible futures.
Surely that's omniscience?
I could just read the article but t would be too easy.

If you could predict all futures then there'd have to be a drawback, like the Seeress from FF13-2 can't interfere or everything will go to shit very quickly?

Or it'd just be exhausting to use it all the time.
Well, obviously there are varying degrees to all powers.

At it's lowest, prescience would let me know things seconds before they happen, while at its highest, I would know far in advance :D

Kind of does.

That's what prescience is.

If there was a situation I didn't have the reflexes to deal with, I'd know that, and avoid the situation all together.
That would be 'omniscience'. ;)
Omniscience is the ability to know everything.


Prescience is basically an advanced form of foresight.
I just realized something: You know the right lottery numbers, meaning your other "superpower" is infinity dosh. Now I'm jealous.

True that.

Know what would be awesome as a super power?
Learning powers from people you meet.
Therefor I would hunt down telekinesis, foresight and immortality.

I will hunt down you and copy your power too xD
Also rapid healing would be useful, because immortality is fine but if you get limbs hacked off you're fucked for a while.

I've already had this discussion.

Trying to hunt down a person with foresight is like playing a game of Hide and Seek that you can never win :D

Ah but thats why you'd have to hunt a foresight noob who barely knew his own power yet and steal it before he could use it to forsee you adaquetly :)

Assuming that powers must be honed and trained to maximise their potential that is.

Subatomic manipulation:The power to manipulate subatomic particles. An advanced version of Molecular Manipulation and the ultimate level of Telekinesis.

I think I came out on top with this power given the sheer list that seems to go with the page.

I got Universal Force Constructs.

"Users can turn Universal forces into tools, objects, weapons and other items, create semi-living constructs and/or create structures/buildings of varying permanence. Users who have mastered this ability can use it for almost any situation, creating anything they need."

The ability to create almost anything? I love that idea. I would tell people to fear me at this point but considering the kind of superpowers others have for this results I'll just say this will be a handy defensive ability.

Mind Exchange.

Users can take over the mind of another, this may or may not accompany the target taking the mind of the user. Some users have changed so many times that they no longer know which body is their own. Some users can inhabit more than one mind at a time, producing a limited Hive Mind.

Sounds like it could get complicated if overused, but I think I can use it to my advantage.

Taxes paid...one month early!

I got the short end of the superpower stick. A power that can easily be affected by a day
planner.
No. you got Batman's superpower, I think that means you automatically win the thread, because Batman.
Of all the things that make Batman interesting, I have never heard anyone reference his planning skills as an enviable feature. I would much prefer the physical prowess, awesome gadgets, deductive reasoning skills (not the same as preparedness), or his money.

Come to think of it, Batman isn't a SUPER-human at all. His abilities are not beyond the conceivable bound of human ability. Therefore, calling being prepared a superpower is a misnomer.
Batman has contingency plans for everything, he has a gadget for every occasion, and I mean every occasion:

If your still not convinced then look at this TV Tropes page: http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/CrazyPrepared Scroll down to the Broad examples categories, there's a folder for every time this trope appears in all Advertising, one for every time this trope appears in all Anime and Manga, there is a category for every time this trope appears in all comic book stories, but just before that, I'll give you one guess as to who gets their own super special batfolder category...

It is a well worn plot point in the Justice league storylines that Batman has prepared failsafe plans to defeat and neutralise every other member of the Justice league (Superman, Wonder Woman, The Flash, etc.) just in case they get mind controlled or go mental. Being prepared for every occasion is the only way he can compete with people who can melt things with their eyes, or play baseball with the moon!

Also I would like to draw your attention to the very link that you gave in your first post, the very webpage that details this superpower, that categorises every superhero with such a power. Click on that link again and see which superhero they decided to use as an example, out of all the other superheroes they could choose from, who was the best example of someone exhibiting enhanced preparedness?
I'll give you a clue, their name begins with the letter B.

Alright, this is neat.

Ink Mimicry!

My actual first reaction to this was "lame..I'm not going to post anyt...ooohh, you can change colours."

Description:
User is able to transform their body completely into ink. User is able to shift between solid ink (gaining hardness equal to soft stone), paste (making the goo-like) and liquid. They can also change their colors.

I'd be the king of stealth and intrusion. I could go anywhere without anyone noticing. No exceptions. Plus, I could choke anyone when I wrap my paste-like body around their faces and enter their lungs.

It's a rock-solid superpower :)

Effect Field Projection boom where do i collect.

Power to emit a field (often spherical) wherever the user wishes that applies a specific effect to all inside the field.At a high level i would be a walking god.
