The transport ability is now Move and attack ability that allows the character to use Hypersonic Speed. So you can use the same powers that you could with hypersonic speed.

So are you allowed to use the move and attack power with exploit weakness and physic blast? Can you even use exploit weakness and physic blast with hypersonic speed? I didn't think you could.
Ideas Wizkids stole from me:
Minature size, Uatu's dial, Split/Merge for duos, Removable objects.

No, you cannot. The only powers that work with Transporter are Super Strength, and Steal Energy.
Trade to Canada. We're friendly, and we love Beavers..........
super strength,steal energy, and willpower all work with transporter. if it works with HSS,it works with move and atk. just remember that your atk is -2 and your range is halved. it sounds like some odd Brazil rule, but that's how it is.

I'm SIX moves ahead of The Leader! Top 16 At Worlds 08
So what powers (super strength, exploit weakness, close combat expert, etc) can you all use while using the transport attack?
HSS allows the character to perform a close/ranged combat attack during the HSS movement. Any power that does not require a Close Combat Action or Power Action is allowed during HSS.
HSS allows the character to perform a close/ranged combat attack during the HSS movement. Any power that does not require a Close Combat Action or Power Action is allowed during HSS.
You forgot ranged combat actions.

That's not an accurate way to describe it. Phasing/Teleport requires a move action. It can't be used during Hypersonic Speed. Psychic Blast requires a ranged combat action. It can't be used during Hypersonic Speed.
Hypersonic Speed grants a close combat or ranged combat attack as a free action. If the power requires ANY kind of action to activate, instead of just being used during a close combat or ranged combat attack, you can't activate it during hypersonic speed.

If by "what about it" you mean "do these work together," the answer is no.

Blades/Claws/Fangs
When this character is given a close combat action, you may
roll a d6 after making a successful attack roll. The result
replaces this character's damage value, then that damage
value is locked.
Quote
Hypersonic Speed
Give this character a power action and move it up to its
speed value. It automatically breaks away and can move
through squares adjacent to opposing characters. During its
move, this character may as a free action make one close
combat or ranged combat attack with its range value halved
for the attack. This character must be in a square where it
could legally end its move in order to make the attack.
Hypersonic speed does not grant a close combat action, only a close or ranged combat attack, so blades/claws/fangs cannot be used.

Right, I missed that explanation in regards to Move Actions. I was mainly only thinking about close/ranged combat powers that can occur during HSS.
