^^ It always bugs the crap out of me every time I see some "power scale". There is no real basis for measuring power levels in TW, so it is completely useless fanfic. There are too many variables canonically given that trying to make some sort of "scale" is ridiculous.

Example: Peter has vast knowledge but this scale seems to be based on strength which is again absurd since we don't have a baseline for werewolves in the show to guide us.

Ennis should have literally "mopped the floor" with Derek but was pretty evenly matched, if not slightly stronger. Yet again we don't know where power levels begin AND it also doesn't reflect the abilities a character had pre-werewolf. Liam was athletically gifted, so much that Scott had to tap into his augmented power just to keep up.

No scale I've seen seems to incorporate these talents because there are too many variables, thus rendering the entire scale worthless and inconsistent.
