[QUOTE="paradox42, post: 5023370, member: 29746"] The system UK used in creating his Epic weapon abilities in the Bestiary makes your Forcefield ability pretty easy to determine, fortunately: Divine Abilities are priced at +5 or +6, so since your Forcefield effectively grants two of them, I'd peg it at +10. I don't think it's worth higher than that, because Force Field itself is actually a fairly weak ability as you get above level 60 or so, and because stacking copies of one single ability in an item (even if it is a stackable one like Force Field) is nearly always less useful than combining two different abilities. The others are more difficult to gauge. Panchromatic is obviously going to be easy to figure out once you have Chromatic, but that still leaves Chromatic to be determined. Nova looks like a weak Atomic Burst, in terms of comparing to Divine & higher powers; likewise, Coruscating looks like a weaker Specular.
