active points consideration in MP

[The Rose]

Hello Steve,

Quick question. I am using a power option out of the ultimate metamorph, where you buy 'densisty alteration' and then spend a +1/4 avantage so to go both up and down the chart. I have this power in a multipower as a varring slot. My question is, "do I consider the +1/4 avantage, when determining how much of my slot's active point cost is inside the multipower?" IE since I have a 25 point reserve and inside it I have a 20 Density alteration with the +1/4 avantage. When alter my density upward to the first level (+5str, +1stun, ect) does it count for 6 or 5points of the reserve?

Thank you,
La Rose.

I bet that it is 6pts but just want to double check.

Absolutely you do -- the standard rules for calculating Active Points apply. If the slot is Flexible and you only use part of it, you still have to apply the Advantage to determine how much of the reserve you use up.
