For powers that damage the environment when used, such as ripping cabling out of walls for entangles, or destroying the terrain for earth based powers, I understand the use of side-effects if the results are a disadvantage. For characters for which such side-effects are advantages, how do you create powers that attack the environment to create components (such as metal fragments, loose earth, etc) for a simultaneous attack on another character (energy blast, entagle, etc)? Would the character just have to take two phases to complete the two actions (attacking the environment for parts to be used in the second attack)?
Thank you for your help.
