How to add aftermath

[SaintHax]

Couldn't think of a good title.. but here's what I want to do.

I have an EB that hits the target, this EB then seeds the target allowing my character to do special effects, such as a Stun Drain. My thought is that once hit by the EB, he shouldn't have to hit again as he's been "tagged", the Power Drain should just require a Skill Roll to take effect. However, I'm unsure as how to build this. I don't think +Continious would work, b/c I'm switching powers from an EB to a Drain.

It's gonna be expensive, but you'll get a bonus in the multiple power attack rules.

Build your basic "tag" power. Build whatever other Powers you want to add to it; make them Continuous. Throw them all at the same target, and viola.

I'm not quite sure what you're asking.

Power A is your tagging power. If Power B has any delay time, build it in as Extra Time.

If you're throwing a multiple power attack, you only roll to hit once with the entire bunch.

Correct.
