The only real way to tier this stuff is by functionality. Is it functional on Silver? On Gold too? How so?

That sort of thing.

It's actually pretty easy to determine which powers are gold tier...look at all the platinum standard characters and their builds:
GI (Hunter Mode, Cloak, Proxy Mine)
MQI (Arc Grenade, Tac scan)
Destroyer (Devastator Mode, Multi-Frag)
Geth Soldier (Flamer)
Drelldept (Reave, Cluster Grenade)
Fury (Annihilation Field)
Any class with Warp for incendiary ammo glitch
SI (Energy Drain)
Snap Freeze (only due to glitch)
Turian Soldier (Marksman with good weapon)
Overload classes due to amazing utility in all cases except armor. (that's a lot of cases)

Note: These are just examples, not exhaustive list.

Obviously I didn't bother repeating powers that come up over and over, but it's clear that if they repeat, they're pretty damn good, i.e. Cloak, Proxy mine.

Incinerate should at least be Silver Tier, if not Gold Tier. Same for Warp. They both excel against armor and mooks, prime wonderfully, and do DoT.

Incendiary ammo glitch?

Incinerate and Warp are probably going in the same group. They are basically each others counterpart, one being biotic and one being tech. Warp has an advantage in its explosions.

You don't hear a lot of praises on the forum about them, though. They both do well against armor, groups, prime wonderfully, as you said. They both also detonate. I'm thinking it's in the same vein as overload. Borderline powers that are either high silver or low gold.
