Temporary Powers
You can earn many unique powers to supplement your character's own permanent powersets. Below I have begun to catalog the various temporary powers available.
Mission specific temporary powers cannot be retained beyond the completion of the mission for which they are awarded. Persistant temporary powers will last indefinitely provided you do not reach their usage quota.

You will lose these powers upon completion of the mission you obtain them in, so you may as well make the most of them.
