Re: [ORE] Re: I'm looking for a "Grant Superpowers" type miracle (Wild Talents 2E)

Daniel, assuming the player doesn't intend to give themselves a billion powers and that dumping a 10hd permanent "defends Powerbroker only" on every goon in sight remains nonviable; what's your justification for requiring the additional expense?

I'm just curious about what sort of scenario you see occurring that would demand such a heavy investment for a PC?

I can tell you, straight up, the utility of this power is limited no matter how much it costs per die because its abuse requires sanctions and its willpower cost practically prohibits abuse. In effect, a PC that can accumulate the WP to make this power a problem can accumulate the WP to buy a ridiculously expensive power. 

To the OP: I addressed hyper stats/skills in the other post I sent, make an Augment (which also bypasses stat limitations).

I'd totally require the A and D qualities,  myself.

Gadgeteering might be a good model for it.  Requiring physical contact and a couple hours of meditation?  Delayed Effect!  Want to make it permanent? Spend Base Will!  Just swap the Focus requirement with an "only for others" requirement.  Add or remove Flaws as needed.

Some GMs might say yes it needs the A and D qualities. I'd say no, you could just as easily make it

Grant powers 2hd
U, touch, perm, others only grant origin (same as yours)
U, touch, perm, attached U, grant Permission One power

Then The target would be able to spend whatever XP they have on one power. If that's an attack so be it. 

I'm assuming this I'd for some kind of Powerbroker PC rather than Anshin'in (who used 400 different powers to take out mooks). If you aren't planning to power up the group, all you're really doing is spending WP for flashy extras in set piece battles or creating your own rogues gallery, I'm fine with that. 

I suppose you could create elaborately flawed powers that are more curse than blessing but this sort of thing is usually consensual (that would be a fun if/then monkey's paw flaw). 

I wouldn't make you pay for A and D of you don't plan on Aing or Ding with the power, but I'm an overthetop GM.

Wouldn't this need an attack and defends quality as well if you wanted Hyperstats and Attacks/Defends Miracles?  Other than that, yeah, your power looks like what I'm looking for.
