Explosions

[dsatow]

OK, I have a player who built an explosion with the following as an example (not actual build).

1.5d6 RKA explosion (+1/2) +4 Stun(+1)

By the rules, explosion drops off 1 DC or 5 active per 1" from center discounting the explosion advantage. Because of the stacking of advantages, this means he effectively doesn't lose 1 DC per 1" but rather 1 DC per 2". Is this correct?

The rules on 5ER 403-404 describe how to calculate the DC progression for Advantaged attacks; that applies to Explosion reduction just like it does to anything else calculated with DCs.
