Interestingly, there's no such warning on Duplicate, which would be the "most likely to be broken" power of my choice. One character that I have always wanted to play would be a duplicator though (but a traditional comic book without attack powers). I'm unfamiliar was the errata of which you speak...the most current stuff (Feb 13, 2007) mentions nothing about the cost of Corrosion, Drain, or Aura. This might be Ultimate Power stuff that I'm unfamiliar with, but I don't really believe in paying for errata. Having an attack that keys off on an opposed skill roll is unprecedented, since even things like Feint offer a choice of Will or Sense Motive. This is just my opinion as someone interested in the mechanics of the rules and how things fit together. Ultimately, however, my opinion isn't really important (and we aren't going to change the other's mind), since it's Toki's call about the power. I just hope that the Medicine poison guy or Escape Artist snare guy don't get me. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
