Rules:Charge Rate Booster
|
Eligible Power Types: Ki Magic Psi |
Description
Charge Rate Boosters permit any simple attack to gather energy more quickly than usually possible.
Logistics
Each charge rate boost allows an attack to gather energy faster when charged. Each iteration of Charge Rate Booster adds the power wielder's natural charge rate again to the base. For instance, if it was a ki wielder (with a natural charge rate of 10% KiPL per charge), one iteration of this would make him charge at 20%, two at 30%, three at 40%, and so on.
This does not permit the power wielder to exceed his maximum charge capacity for that attack. Also, this upgrade can only be utilized on simple techniques -- complex, multifunctional or non-direct damage techniques may have variant costs which must be assigned by a staffer through a formal app process.
A character's charge rate may not exceed his or her template's initial natural charge (max 30% for Ki, max 20% for Psi, max 60% for magic). PhysPL characters observe this rule, utilizing the power type their template is based on to determine what its natural charge and charge rate will be like for this rule. This may not be circumvented via techniques.
Each charge rate boost costs 45 (34/56) tech days.
