When Piper and Phoebe confront Paige in the church where they first try to get her to test her powers, they tell her that the third sister has the power to move objects. Thus, if one died the other sister (Paige) would have received that power. Because they all came from Melinda Warren, and in the Book of Shadows it was that the rising of the Charmed ones would have one with sight, one with movement, and one that can manipulate time; or something of that nature. Therefore, if let's say Piper died, Paige would have to have Pipers power to reconstitute the Charmed ones. and... How come Leo and move objects with orbing, that like makes Paige's power pointless because other people can do it besides her. She should have got just plain psychokinesis and orbing instead of orbing and psychokinesis combined. and I never understood why in the episode where Prue, Phoebe, and Piper go to the future, where Phoebe dies... There powers are really strong. They never become that strong in reality, although Prue wasn't alive. I also never got why Phoebe got three powers and Piper and Paige got two. well i think they were starting to lean towards the evil side in the future presented in morality bites so that might have something to do with it. as for why Phoebe got three powers and the others only got two. well paige did technically have the most powers if you include her whiteligher powers. besides tele-orbing and orbigng she could also glamour,heal,and sense her charges piper also showed signs of having her powers advance in the first episode of s8 when she disguised herself as wyatt and was able to fling the molecules of the energy ball back at it's source

I know that I'm not answering the question, but don't you guys think it's cool in a way since Paige got the power of telekinesis that it worked with her being half whitelighter. I thought it worked out perfectly with the show.

Yes, I like the depiction of Paige's telekinesis "with a whitelighter's touch."

well yeah i like it too but also it has disadventages from example Prie could use her telekinesis without people around her to notice that ( in the fourth sister she uses her power in front of Andy and Leo to close the door ) but Paige cant do that

Yes, it's definitely a drawback to Paige's power.

yeah it was nice and just to replay on someone who posted that their powers will develop more becouse the show endend in 2006 and in mortality bites we saw their advenced powers. but guys in mortality bites prue was still allive and piper got daughter and nothing is same like in that episode so am not sure that phoebe next power that she will gain will be same as her powers in mortality bites.

What does Prue's death have to do with Phoebe's potential power advancements?
Why would Prue dying preclude Phoebe from gaining certain new powers?

Because Paige's actual ability shown in the series is teleportation, not telekinesis. Why couldn't the writers simply admit this? Why was it necessary for them to create that convoluted explanation that she had "telekinesis" that manifested itself in orbing? I don't know which is more ridiculous - Paige's so-called telekinesis or the way Phoebe's empath ability is supposed to be used as an active power.

If Paige's power is strictly "teleportation," then how do you explain Paige being able to telekinetically move objects in a straight linear path from Season 6 onward?

Didn't Paige also "move objects in a straight linear path" as whitelightertony mentions in the episode "Charmed Again" Part 2 when Paige calls for the lamp and throws it at Piper and Phoebe? Because when Paige throws the lamp, you could see it flying across the room surrounded by orbs.

I vaguely remember that...and it was probably just a temporary case of amped up power for Paige, at that point in time, since she was under the influence of evil.

yeah...
So do you think one of Prue powers would be projection? Its a mind based power too and sounds great for me

Do you mean Billie's power of projection?
Yes, I believe both Prue and Paige could have the potential to develop full-blown projection, similar to Billie's - - except it wouldn't happen until far into their old age.

See I agree that Paige's witch ability is actually Teleportation that later manifests into her using Telekinesis with it but this ability has the Orbing Twist.
Just like how if Prue had lived I think he powers would have manifested in the opposite direction of her having Telekinesis that later advanced into Telematerialization.

There you go using fancy names for powers, so I have no idea what they mean.
The difference is that Prue was a witch with witch powers. Paige was a living whitelighter who could cast spells and make potions - able to move things with her mind like Prue, but because she was a whitelighter, not a witch, her power to move things with her mind was the way a whitelighter does it, not the way a witch does.
So, no, I don't think Prue's power would've morphed into something like that at all.
Back to the original post, if Piper had died, Paige would've gotten the whitelighter version of manipulating molecules - able to glamour other people, not just herself - and if Phoebe had died, she would've gotten the whitelighter version of premonitions - being able to actually orb into the past or the future.

It always confused me how Paige's power was 'Telekinectic Orbing' when it looked like she teleported things even though she moved a couple of objects in a line twice apparantly.
Anyway if Piper had died instead of Prue I think Paige would've frozen things in tiny little orbs and her second power had she'd got one would most likely have seen her melt things using orbs or another which might've been good would've been a variation on 'Transmogrification' the ability to change shape and form wherein she orbed into whatever object she wanted to be and then orbed back again afterwards before been able to do that to other people sometime later when her advanced.
If Phoebe had gone Paige's premonitions would probably have either had her seen things in sparkles of orbs or had a swirly type circle go round her head. Other aspects of that which would've occured later like 'Remote Viewing' which Reality Bites mentioned previously coupling her orbing and sensing which could've operated with her eyes flashing in orbs like what Wyatt did showcasing her looking at something in a distance to what she was sensing and sharing visions if she did that could've acted with Paige putting orbs into people containing the premonition inside although some people mightn't agree with that and obviously with the astral visions Paige's soul would orb inside whatever she was seeing at the time and then come back again subsequent.
