I've been looking at the Character Ability Guidelines Table on page 35 of 6E1 and suddenly find myself wondering if I've been interpreting them correctly all these years.
1) For DC, does the number factor in damage bonuses from Talents like Deadly Blow/Weaponmaster, or using skill levels to add to damage? It doesn't seem to from the text.
2) The same question as in #1, only for Active Points. It sounds like a Heroic character could be built with a 50 Active Point attack, use skill levels or a Talent like Deadly Blow to increase the effective Active Points, yet still be within the guidelines?
3) For Def and rDef, does rDef get included in Def? A character with an 8 PD wearing 5rPD armor has an effective total Def of 13, which seems to be above the guidelines.
