Still kind of new to the system so please forgive if it's a stupid question but with armour piercing,

If a character has 10 PD and then 10 PD worth of resistant protection, it gives him a total of 20 PD against regular attacks and 10 PD against killing attacks.

If he is struck with a regular blast attack with the AP advantage, then would the whole 20 PD be halved or just the 10 PD that is not resistant?

Re: Armor from x-men type of brick.

Have made one using just linked and one with both linked & unified. Will see which one the GM prefers me to use.

Re: Armor from x-men type of brick.

Thanks for all the input, you have given me much food for thought.

As for the GM being a jerk, that was somewhat tongue in cheek as I know he will exploit it but I really don't think he will over do it.

As was pointed out, I took that limitation so it CAN be exploited and fully expect to loose it at least a couple of times through the campaign. But then again, that is why I have team mates.

Personally I think this is a perfect example for a unified power too (you can unify and link them). Might want to add some power defense to that' date=' so it won't break under 1d6 autofire drain.[/quote']

 

Now, I never thought of that... That is an interesting idea.

Re: Armor from x-men type of brick.

For the concept though, I have to link. And I want it linked. The forcefield is everything. You take away the forcefield and the other powers are not there. Just a regular person. I know it means that things can be taken away easy but thats how I want it.

And if my GM is a jerk about it and constantly finds way to remove the field, so be it.

oh and here is the link to the character

Re: Armor from x-men type of brick.

After looking again I think it is going to have to be linked. Mainly because my concept is that she has to have the forcefield up to use anything else. Has anyone an answer about the linked Strength?

So its a brick with a resistant protection forcefield which is the source of all her powers (super strength, con etc). My biggest thing is I originally had all the powers 'linked' to the force field, but now cannot decide if it would be better to make them all 'unified' instead.

Also if I take Str linked to the forcefield, do I need to take the 'Linked power need not be used proportionately' in order to use pull a punch or use less strength.
