So... is there one? Looking in the BBB there doesnt seem to be and at a cost of 0.25 it is concievable to at +24 DV at char gen?
Point being that is a blanket add which takes on average 3x pool to soak or 72 dice.
Max skill unarmed and attribute and it isnt easy to dodge. Have a magician hold a select spell or two.


Yeah I know.. he would be slow, fine add a level of speed then buy the remaining pooints in Crit Strike +16 DV.



Or am I missing something?

(oh: I have LE BBB in case that matters)

Well, there's the standard cap - you can't have more ranks in a power than you have magic points.

i.e. for a magic 6 physad, he could have at most, 6 ranks in the power.

Glad you found your answer. Maxed out critical strike can still get pretty crazy, even with the correct limits, but a troll physad (to use an antiquated term) who can punch through the side of a citymaster is pretty awesome and not really broken, all things considered.
+24 though, that would be bad. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/grinbig.gif)

I'm sorry I was too busy trying to get my female character to hook up with the other female character. I think there was a plot or something but- Oh! I can talk to her again! Happy day!

But seriously, great game but I don't remember that line sadly. Where was it?

My original response was going to be "Dr. McNinja" and I'm saddened that I'm wrong.
