==Methodology== Shakers use their abilities to control the battlefield.<ref name=":1" /> They use several methods to accomplish this, including, but not limited to: *The creation and manipulation of forcefields in a variety of shapes and sizes.<ref name=":1" /> *Blasts with an area of effect, combining Shaker powers with a [[Blaster]] rating, similar to the old [[Nuker]] classification.<ref>Sarcophagus <nowiki>#U0402</nowiki> Alexandria-ish package grants flight, as well as protection, in the form of external armor or a forcefield, the former providing imperfect but substantial protection that decays as it absorbs several incoming attacks, the latter providing perfect protection against a single hit. Both forms of protection recover after a short pause. Sarcophagus grants a blaster power with shaker-esque radius and damage potential or a shaker power with blaster-like offensive potential, the indistinction closely fitting the original PRT ‘Nuker’ designation). Nature of armor, recovery period, style of flight, and the nature or flavor of the ‘nuke’ vary based on the individual. - [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1aHyZ7c7TIgt903mPinOakrgli2WZu5IRtiGYPCnCqDE/edit#gid=390344990 Detail Generator - Vials], spreadsheet by Wildbow.</ref> *The manipulation of terrain, hampering the mobility of enemy forces.<ref>Conch - Effect ripples outward, forcing enemies away, while having a supercharged aura-like effect imbue any allies in the area, granting a beneficial effect for the duration.

Movement through area is limited and causes damage to others, staying still lets slowing effect stack up to a limit, making moving again hard, while accumulating to affect them with elemental effect. - [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1aHyZ7c7TIgt903mPinOakrgli2WZu5IRtiGYPCnCqDE/edit#gid=717384850 Detail Generator - LIST], spreadsheet by Wildbow.</ref> *The use of auras, either aiding allies or debilitating enemies.<ref name="Glory_Girl2">'''Question by WyldCard4:''' Aura: What exactly is her aura classified as? Personally I have classified it as a low level Stranger power, as I believe you once told me it is not a Master power.
