How to tell what powers are affected by gauntlet and which ones aren't?????

If you open the power in CoD, look next to activation details. It will tell you if the range or arc buff is disallowed. (Crowd Control is both, but other powers can be just one or the other.)

Ok, that is very useful thank you.

 

But, wait, when a pbaoe has only range disallowed that still means the radius is not increased right? Even though some pbaoes have only radius disallowed. I'm assuming that if radius or ranged is disallowed then the effective area of the pbaoe is not increased. 

 

Or am I wrong in that assumption. 

 

Does rending flurring on a tanker have increased radius?

I was partially wrong above. Range refers to the distance between the caster and the target. In the case of PBAoE powers, range is always 0 since the power centers on the caster. Range is disallowed on all melee PBAoEs, regardless of AT. Radius refers to the distance from the center of the circle to the perimeter. Powers not affected by the gauntlet radius buff will have radius disallowed. In the case of Rending Flurry, radius is not disallowed and it should benefit from the radius buff. 

 

Arc refers to the width of a cone. Powers not affected by the gauntlet arc buff will have arc disallowed. (You can't increase arc on a PBAoE since the arc is 360 degrees.) 

 

From the Issue 26 Page 4 patch notes (I haven't checked for changes to this list in later patches):

 

The following powers ignore Arc Buffs:

Battle Axe > Pendulum
Claws > Eviscerate
Claws > Shockwave
Spines > Throw Spines
Titan Weapons > Defensive Sweep
Titan Weapons > Titan Sweep
Titan Weapons > Arc of Destruction
War Mace > Crowd Control
All Judgement powers
 

The following powers ignore Radius Buffs:

Electric Melee > Lightning Clap
Electric Melee > Lightning Rod
Savage Melee > Savage Leap
Spines > Quills Radius
Super Strength > Hand Clap
Super Strength > Foot Stomp
Titan Weapons > Whirling Smash
All Judgement powers
 

The following powers have had their Arcs adjusted for Tankers only:

Broad Sword > Slice: Lowered from 130° to 90° (actually 135° after the 50% increase from Tanker inherent buff)
Katana > Flashing Steel: Lowered from 130° to 90° (actually 135° after the 50% increase from Tanker inherent buff)

The website does not say that range is disallowed on burn, but I assume it is from your description. If range is 0 it doesn't matter if it is being given a multiplier or not.

Ok, great. Thank you for all your help.
