FBI Reviews has done an interview with Cryptic Studios' Jack Emmert about their upcoming superhero MMORPG City of Heroes. Here's a bit from that interview:
    FBI Reviews: Does each power have sub-powers (i.e. Cold Control has ice blast as a sub power) or do some powers only have power attributes (i.e.. Energy Blast has damage, range, armor piercing, and explosion radius as experience modifiable attributes)?

    Jack Emmert: Some powers don't have sub-powers - Energy Blast is one example. Those types of powers we dub "core powers." To balance their lack of versatility, core powers are generally more powerful than their Control power equivalents.

    FBI Reviews: I've seen skills mentioned in addition to powers. What are they and are they upgradeable with experience?

    Jack Emmert: Skills are definitely upgradeable with experience. Most items and equipment come with a skill level requirement in order to use them. Certain skills, such as Brawling and Martial Arts, will give the player added abilities in game play.
