Stupid elemental control question

Recommended Posts

It's been a long time since I've figured a character without a program so could someone explain exactly how to work the discount in an EC?

 

I have a 50 point EC. The power has a total of 2 1/4 advantages and a .875(odd gm discretion thing a 1/2 and a 3/8) limiter on a 65 point power.

 

My math is seriously coming out weird. Can someone help, please?

65 * 2.25 = 146 (.25)

 

146-50 = 96

 

96/1.875 = 51 (.2)

 

Total Cost of Slot: 51 points.

Wouldn't it be 65(1+2.25)=211.25=211?

 

Then would I figure the EC discount making it 161? Then the limiters work off of the 161?

Yes, it would be.

 

That would be my mind refusing to accept that +2.25 on a Power really happens... :D

 

yes. 161/1.85 is the *correct* calculation.
