Boostable Charges Costing Endurance

[Dynamo]

Consider the following power construct:

Particle Accelerator Cannon: Energy Blast 12d6; 16 Boostable Charges (+.25); Costs END (-.5).

Two questions:

1. Should the power cost 6 END (60 pts in EB) to use when firing off a single charge, or 7 END (75 points in EB plus 16 boostable charges)?

-- For simplicity's sake, the second question will assume that the answer to the first is 6 END. Adjust accordingly if the answer is 7 END. --

2. When using more than one charge for increased effect, should the power cost 6 END plus 1 per 2 additional DCs gained from boosting, or 6 END per charge expended?

The power costs 7 END per use. The cost doesn’t change if the character “boosts” a Charge.
