As beings that exist in a realm beyond the world depicted in The Lord of the Rings, the Ainur perceive the space-time of Eä as a lower and secondary plane of existence, with them dwelling alongside Eru within the Timeless Halls, a higher and more primary level of existence. As chief among the Maiar, Eönwë is superior to other Maiar and comparable to the lesser Valar), can ignore conventional durability with Soul Manipulation
Speed: At least Supersonic+ to High Hypersonic, Massively FTL+ combat speed and reactions (Superior to the Balrogs and Thorondor, who fought with Ancalagon the Black. Defeated Morgoth at the end of the First Age, and was chief among the Maiar), Immeasurable when discarding his physical form (The Ainur are still capable of travelling at any speeds they desired, being able to instantly appear anywhere they desired within Eä and exploring the past at will. However, the future is something they can only explore so far as the design was made clear to them during the Music)Morgoth's Ring: PART FIVE.

Lifting Strength: At least Class E, likely far higher (Likely stronger than Curumo and Olórin) | Immeasurable
Striking Strength: High Universe level (Eönwë is said to be the mightiest in arms of all the beings in Arda) | Low Complex Multiverse level
Durability: High Universe level | Low Complex Multiverse level
Stamina: Superhuman (The bodies of the Ainur are described as being akin to clothing, which they can discard at will. Lesser Maiar than Eönwë have been known to fight for days) | Infinite
Range: Extended Melee Range; Unknown with his abilities | Low Complex Multiversal
Standard Equipment: The Sword of ManwëThe War of the Jewels, "Part Two. The Later Quenta Silmarillion: The Last Chapters of the Quenta Silmarillion"
Intelligence: Extraordinary Genius (As chief among the Maiar, Eönwë should be at least comparable to other Maiar such as Curumo or Arien. This would make him at least comparable to members of "The Wise" who can accurately deduce the future with knowledge and experience alone.Unfinished Tales, Part Four: II, The Istari Indeed, from all the Maiar and Eldar sent to guide and aid the first Númenóreans settle on their isle, Eönwë was chosen to be the one to teach them the knowledge and wisdom that elevated them over other mortal races. to them much during the early years of their civilisation.The Silmarillion: AKALLABÊTH He was also a, if not the overall, leader of the Host of Valinor during the defeat of Morgoth in the War of Wrath, and is described by the Silmarillion as the most knowledgeable being in Arda when it comes to the usage of arms, aka weaponry) | Possibly Nigh-Omniscient (The Ainur acted as the origin to all that which existed within Eä, having sung all the concepts which constitute the world during the Anulindalë. However, Eru himself withheld some knowledge about his creation from the Ainur)
Weaknesses: None notable
Notable Attacks/Techniques: Like all Ainur, Eönwë has access to a wide range of dangerous powers, mostly related to the elements.
Powers of the Ainur: As a Maia, Eönwë has access to wide variety of potent and devastating supernatural abilities, for the Ainur were created as elemental spirits, and each have divine authority and absolute control over a certain aspect of nature. Each and every one of the Ainur is also able to manipulate magical energies and reality to serve their needs, and take any form they wish, even intangible and non-corporeal spiritual forms. 
*Elemental manipulation: As one of the Ainur, it is highly likely that Eönwë had authority and control over one aspect of nature, though that aspect was neither confirmed nor specified. Still, it is very likely he has some measure of control over war and the wind, being a servant of Manwë.
*Foresight/Hindsight: The Ainur can see the past and the future (Though the latter is fallible). As a military commander, such a power would be of great use to Eönwë.
*Empathy: The Ainur are surrounded by an a powerful aura, which can affect those around them, bringing joy and presumably sorrow to those near him: "In Beleriand King Thingol upon his throne was as the lords of the Maiar, whose power is at rest, whose joy is as an air that they breathe in all their days, whose thought flows in a tide untroubled from the heights to the deeps."
*Shapeshifting: As one of the Ainur, it was highly likely that Eönwë possessed the famous Ainur ability to transform and reshape the form of one's body, appearing in whatever form he desired. They can also appear as inanimate objects, such as when Yavanna appeared as a tree.
*Spirit form: As one of the Ainur, it is highly likely that Eönwë had the ability to cast off his physical form like a snake shedding its skin, and take on an intangible and non-corporeal spiritual form. In this spiritual state, the Ainur can travel forward and backward in time (Though they are unable to affect the future or the past, only see it). Of the Ainur's spirit forms and precognitive powers this was said:
