Damage Shield, Elemental Control, and Multiple Power Attacks...

[TheEmerged]

Because you can never ask too arcane of a question

The rules specifically prohibt Multiple Power Attacks from two or more slots in an Elemental Control (FREd pg 204) -- without GM permission. Let's ignore that permission issue for the purpose of this question

Would this mean that a character with two different Damage Shields as seperate slots in the same EC couldn't have them both active at the same time? I realize a Damage Shield is not technically an attack, but it seems that the same logic (effectively getting two "attacks" for the price of one) would apply.

Thank you for your time.

Having a Damage Shield active does not count as an "attack" in the same sense as you're thinking.

Then again, I don't imagine most GMs would allow an EC with two Damage Shields anyway.
