Steve,

This is an odd situation I ran across using HeroDesigner. (I'm posting here first because I want to make sure it's doing something wrong, rules-wise, before I make a bug report.)

A character with 21 Ego has +10 Mental Defense. This yields a total MD of 14. So far so good.

The same character then buys another +10 Mental Defense with the "Costs END" Limitation (to represent making her mind nearly impregnable when she..er..'puts her mind to it.')

HeroDesigner lists the character's total MD as 28 -- obviously it's giving the Ego/5 to EACH of the individually-bought Mental Defense powers. I'm thinking that you only get Ego/5 ONCE, no matter how many different Mental Defense add-ons you buy.

So...am I right, and HeroDesigner is incorrectly double-dipping? Or am I wrong, and the character does, indeed, get the benefits of Ego/5 multiple times?

HD is in error somehow. Of course you don't get EGO/5 twice.
