Aggy, are you still going to reduce the cost of my detect elites feat?

I didn't do that...right. Where's the other point going?

 

[Calinon]

That'll work. And I'm using...both! The new errata, with everything from the old errata that they mysteriously removed. Are you refering to your force field? I'm not sure how the eratta effects that in that way.

The new erratta has no free extra for force fields. Not a big deal really. I do like my "affect others by touch" extra though, would be a shame to be rid of it, but I can always use a hero point to acquire it for a while.

Ah, I see. No, I'm leaving the free extra in. Not sure why they got rid of it but still made it 2 points.

saving it, mimic and its extras are damn expensive

I think the general reason is its far more useful than protection. FF has extra's like mental shield, immunities, force attacks... and so on. Protection has protection and nothing else snazzy.

Yes but protection is on all the time regardless of whether your stunned or surprised. I think that balances it alot.

Not a big deal, you can always just add Mental Protection as an Extra anyways I do it all the time

 

[Hammerhead]

The list of extras is really more fluid than that Calinon...according to the Power Creation rules, any power could be an extra. Of course, this requires GM oversight, but for the most part things are pretty common sense. The 'no free extra' thing is especially bad when you consider that FFs are highly visible defenses, whereas you can't tell by looking at him that Superman is immune to bullets.

I'm working on a few character concepts right now for Issue 3.

 

[Tokiwong]

Hammerhead is correct and stuff

 

[Calinon]

By that argument, you could add any extra to any power. Adding many of the goodies on Force Field to Protection doesn't make sense. It's why force field is there; it has the suitable extras. Protection should not have those same extras or nobody would ever take force field.
