[QUOTE="jmucchiello, post: 7009660, member: 813"] In Check Required, the die roll actually determines the power level. So she makes the Deception roll, on a 10- she gets 6 ranks, on a 11, 7 ranks, on a 12, 8 ranks, etc. up to 15+ where she get the full 11 ranks. So 60% the time, she is below the PL requirement (10+7 or worse), 35% of the time she exceeds it (10+9 or better), and 5% of the time she is at the 18 limit. If you want to change the percentages, I can do that by raising the DC of the check, but that just gives me more CP to play with for more abilities. :) I assume this applies to stuff like Immunity 10 all cold effects. If you had check required on it and the DC was 10 and you roll a 20, you are immune to all cold effects. If you roll a 19, you are not immune to all cold effects. Damage does not have that all or nothing issue. You can use 1 rank of the effect as it still does something. As for sun ray, that I will definitely adjust since I forgot about the no attack roll for AOE. [/QUOTE]
