Constant Area Effect and END

[quozaxx]

I know that you pay END per person that you effect with a Constant Power.

 

I know that you don't pay an increase in END to maintain a constant area effect power.

 

But do you have to pay END per person you effect with a Constant Area Effect Power? So, if your Power effects 20 people in an area and each Attack is 10 END. Would you have to pay 200 END per Phase to effect all the people in that area?

 

I don't see anywhere that this would be an exception to the rule.

 

If so, is there a way to ONLY pay the 10 END per Phase instead of 10 END per person per Phase?

Re: Constant Area Effect and END

 

Good lord, no, that would make no sense whatsoever. If a character uses a Constant Area-affecting power, he pays the standard END cost to maintain it each Phase. He doesn’t have to pay the END cost per person affected. Otherwise the END cost would fluctuate as people went in an out of the area, which would be absurd.
