nice pokemon!  lol<br/><br/>So, to clarify:<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=347850.msg16373912#msg16373912">Quote from: Outcast on 06-01-2023, 21:26:31</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">By the version of the Hero's Handbook Deluxe that I have, it's listed as 'DC10'... while not <strong>actually </strong>meaning that.  :-\<br/><br/>To quote the book: "<em>Each point your check total exceeds the DC allows you to use 1 rank of Leaping, up to your total rank.</em>"<br/><br/>So: total 10 (or less) on the roll: no Leaping ranks activated at all.<br/>Total of 11: 1 rank available.<br/>Total of 12: 2 ranks.<br/>Continuing on up to...<br/>Total of 20 or more: full 10 ranks of Leaping can be used for this jump.<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>I think OUtcate may have missed something about that limitation.  it's not -1/rank of the power.  (I wish it was!)  The cost is actually determined by the DC you need to roll to use the power.  One rankg of "requies a check" is DC 10.  2 ranks is DC 11.  3 ranks is DC 12.  4 ranks is DC 13.  You took 5 ranks of it whihc is DC 14.  So DC 14 gives you 1 rank of the power.  DC 15 2 ranks, etc.  :)<br/><br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=347850.msg16373912#msg16373912">Quote from: Outcast on 06-01-2023, 21:26:31</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">If you wanted some additional unpredictability, you could even combine Requires Acrobatics Check with Full Power (flat -1 point): however many ranks you activated on your check would be how far you leaped... but that's the sort of thing I'd say was in keeping with someone <em>very</em> new to that particular power.  If it strikes you as fun RP, go for it.  I'm happy for Amber to have a better ability to restrain herself, if you don't want to go for the greater uncertainty (and danger).<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=347850.msg16374126#msg16374126">Quote from: Avernale on 07-01-2023, 04:38:09</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">Uh... Does this mean I <em>don't</em> have to add the DC to the power?<br/>Sounds hilarious.  And frustrating.  I'll keep it anyway.  I'm picturing Amber trying to leap in pursuit of something, only to crit the roll and wind up in low orbit.  Then everyone watches her Blast Off for a moment before going, "...Anyway, plan B."<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>What Outacste is describing here is if you add an additional limitation.  "Full power only."  You haven't done that.  :)
