[QUOTE="Thomas Shey, post: 9731751, member: 7026617"] That's a common argument about Batman, actually. But the issue still is Hero is fairly skill-splitty, and just talking about things Batman does pretty regularly is going to eat a lot of point; he's classically the best detective in the DC universe, at one time was considered the third best martial artist, is a world class acrobat (often within "normal human" cases only outmatched by Nightwing), shown to be a master of disguise when he wants to, and is a high end financier. And that's not even getting into how many languages he speaks. He's just one of those characters who ties up a lot of points in a game that doesn't do significantly more skill lumping than Hero does. Like I said, in one without Skill Levels he'd probably be difficult to impossible even when built on the same point range as Supes. (For a recent other example, I'm betting Mr. Terrific is just about as bad; anything he doesn't spend on some of the more wealth oriented things he probably makes up for on super tech). [/QUOTE]
