So, I read up on Interpose, and then on Deflect Power I currently have. With me taking Ranged Extra, all I would essentially have to do would state that I Deflect attacks for that round. I would then be able to deflect ANY attacks within 900 feet (power rank x100 feet), with a penalty for distance between myself and the target. Also, I have it listed with the power feats of triggered x2, which I believe I could essentially set as 'when we are attacked, I will choose to deflect any attacks on [insert name here]' That is assuming that I am not using any of the other alternate powers between the time I set the trigger and when the trigger takes place. Is this not how it works?
Interpose would be as a reaction to adjacent ally only. It would not cost an action, technically, but is limited to adjacent.
Lastly, question for Alternate Powers / Power Array that I asked a while back, but did not get a real answer. For alternate powers that are not using up their max alloted power points available, would I be able to build those powers up to their potential over time, is I intended to do as a 'learning basis', or would I have to actually spend power points to increase those powers?
Such as:
Alt Power 2
Strike 11
Effect: Attack (+11)
Range: Touch
Action: Standard
Duration: Instant
Extras: Partial Penetrating [+3]
Flaws: None
Power Feats: Incurable, Affect Insubstantial x2, Accuracy, Knockback x5
Total Cost: (23pp)
With this power, it is not using up its max of 38 power points. Let's say I add another extra, such as indirect. Would I be able to do this without having to spend power points, since he essentially already has the ability to increase this power to up to 38 points? I sure hope so.
