Powerscaling and Variety

WoD

Just to preface this, powerscaling is fine. If you find it fun then that's just what you find fun.

No, I am here to scream one thing into the void.

SCALE AGAINST SOMETHING OTHER THAN GAROU!

Normally I don't get into these kinds of discussions, but Garou powerscaling is something so pervasive that I feel the need to say this.

"I can make a vampire that can 1v1 a Garou." "I can make a Changeling that can 1v1 a Garou."

I get it, the Garou are generally considered the big combat guys of WoD. But being able to make a sheet to beat a member of a splat is not interesting. If you build right, any splat can beat any splat.

I'm not asking people to stop powerscaling, because that's both never going to happen, and because I do think the discussions can be fun.

No, I want to encourage scaling against more than just the Garou or similar. Scale against Shades (my beloved), Dauntain, Wan Kuei. It doesn't matter.
