Uthanar Posted June 11, 2019 Report Share Posted June 11, 2019 If you take Extra Time - Extra Segment on something like Growth, you will grow to the new height at the end of the next segment. Since Growth normally doesn't take a Half-Phase to activate, do you get a full phase to do with as you please on the turn that you activate it? I ask because 6E1 pg 376 says "he may take a Half Phase Action first, if he so desires" in reference to activating the power. It goes on to talk about a bunch of attack stuff, which lead me to wonder if they were trying to call out that attacks take the half-phase they normally do or if the power activation now has to be at least a half phase since you have taken Extra Time.

dsatow Posted June 11, 2019 Report Share Posted June 11, 2019 6e1p374 While a character activates a power with Extra Time, he may take other actions (if not, the Limitation is worth an additional -¼; characters may not take this for the Full Phase or Delayed Phase versions of Extra Time). This means that activating the power is the end of your action. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uthanar Posted June 12, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2019 I am not certain how that is the reading when it says that the above says that you can do other things while you activate it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe what dsatow was indicating that if you took the additional +1/4 limitation, your activation ends your action. Otherwise, you are free to use your action. - E dsatow 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
