Do Empower Power Level Bonus and Ascendant buff stack ?

Hi all ! First post, hope it's in the right section.

Title. If this has been asked before, I'm sorry. I couldn't find an answer from an internet search !

yes, they do. (haven't verified specifically in-game, but the +5 PL from empowering is a static effect that works with other PL bonuses active or passive, so there's no reason why it wouldn't work with ascendant)

 

side note: ascendant itself doesn't benefit from +PL though, only intellect.

I see, thank you for clarifying ! So if you empower a Cipher ability whilst ascended, it'll give a huge power boost. Neat !
