I would continue to use your static line as it rolls across the rock edge whereas webbing drags and is far more prone to failure. People here will argue this, but it has been proven more than once.
OK...for the power point, the BFK is the best way to go. Forget the double figure 8's and all the other complicated set ups. Use the BFK. As far as the trees, go, use a tension wrap as coolcat described. This is the best method. Never tie the eight directly around the rope, always clip it back to itself with a biner. As far as boulders, I usually use a double bowline, as a single bowline has the ability to roll and fail. This is rare, but erring on the side of safety is never a bad thing.
Feel free to PM me with any other questions.
