[QUOTE="Jemal, post: 3734915, member: 9026"] OK, I just went over Lightspeed's character sheet again and noticed a few things: Lightspeed's "Growth strike" is impractical b/c of the way it works. You use it as you're getting bigger (Meaning you have to be smaller to begin with, then 'stop' your shrinking and grow back to normal size), and at your current rank, that's only 1 size category, meaning if you take the action to shrink, and then end it and grow again, you deal 1 damage. I'd suggest dropping the growth strike, it's completely useless at lower ranks. (Gaining you 1pp) What you could do for your Jack-Hammer is shrink (Adding the str bonus from Compression), and then use your Gravity Strike (Rank 8), which would add onto your newly-enhanced Str (18) to give you your Jackhammer attack: +10 hit, 12 damage(DC 27 toughness check). Also, I noticed something else about your Shrinking.. You don't have Normal Toughness, but you need both Normal Strength AND Normal Toughness before you can take Compression. This would cost 4 pp. Also, the toughness bonus you get from shrinking/Compression is only +2, not +4. I'll ad-hoc it for now until you get back and figure out how to fix it. [/QUOTE]
