Ecalsneerg Posted January 5, 2010 Posted January 5, 2010 Characters Name: Daedalus Adds up. Stats: 48pp Str: 14/38 (+2/+14) Dex: 14 (+2) Con: 20/38 (+5/+14) Int: 30 (+10) Wis: 16 (+3) Cha: 14 (+2) Adds up. I'd normally question an Int over 25, but he's frickin Daedalus. Combat: 28pp Attack: +8 Grapple: +10/+13/+27 Defense: +8 (+3 flat-footed) Knockback: -2, -12 Initiative: +2 Adds up. Saves: 12pp Toughness: +14/+5 (+14/+5 Con, 11 Impervious) Fortitude: +14/+5 (+14/+5 Con, +0) Reflex: +6 (+2 Dex, +4) Will: +11 (+3 Wis, +8) Adds up.

Does he really need Earth and Life Sciences? Not a real issue, just a pp-saving idea. Feats: 11pp All Out Attack Dodge Focus 2 Eidetic Memory Improvised Tools Inventor Jack of All Trades Master Plan Power Attack Skill Mastery 2 (Computers, Craft (electronic), Craft (mechanical), Knowledge (Earth Sciences), Knowledge (History), Knowledge (Life Sciences), Knowledge (Physical Sciences), Knowledge (Technology)) Adds up. Is Eidetic Memory really necessary alongside Jack of all Trades? Powers: 85pp True Resurrection 2 (1/day) [2pp] Immunity 3 (aging, poison, disease) [3pp] Comprehend 2 (languages; understand/read all, speak 1 at a time) [4pp] Device 19 (hard to Lose) - Battlesuit [76pp] Any reason his suit isn't Daedalus only? Devices Enhanced Constitution 18 [18pp] Impervious 11 [11pp] Flight 5 [10pp] Immunity 9 (life support) [9pp] Communication 8 (radio) [8pp] Super-Strength 3 [6pp] Weapons Array 16.5 (30pp, 3 AP's) * BE: Enhanced Strength 24 and Super-Strength 3 * AP: Blast 14 PF: Precise, Split Attack * AP: Blast 10 Extras: General Area Burst * AP: Snare 14 PF: Reversible, Tether Hmmm... why no Super-Senses? Also note that without Super-Senses (radio), he can send but not receive his own communication. DC Block: Unarmed "naked" --- 17/Toughness --- Bruised, Staged I hate you.
Nyrath Posted January 5, 2010 Posted January 5, 2010 Comprehend 2 (languages; understand/read all, speak 1 at a time) [4pp] While I'm no Ref I can't help but point out that this is one rank short of its intended effect. Comprehend (Languages) can be broken down as follows. -Being able to understand any spoken language = 1 rank -Being able to speak any language = 1 rank -Being able to be understood in any spoken language = 1 more rank (not used here, included for completeness) And -Being able to read any written language = 1 rank
angrydurf Posted January 5, 2010 Posted January 5, 2010 Actually Understand and speak any language 1 at a time is 1 point. If he wanted to understand all languages at all times and speak one at a time and read them all it would be 3 points. As he can only understand one at a time its 2 points IIRC.
Sandman XI Posted January 5, 2010 Posted January 5, 2010 I think we've been playing it the semi-pick-and-choose style. For 1 rank you can either: speak any one language at a time (and after that you can choose to have anyone understand you regardless of language), read any language, understand anylanguage
Geez3r Posted January 5, 2010 Author Posted January 5, 2010 He's got Earth and Life Sciences because its Daedalus. He's supposed to be uber smart, so I just gave him everything with "science" at the end of it. Eidetic Memory is just useful because he's had such a long life, and Jack of All Trades represents and skills he happened to pick up along the way. The suit isn't Daedalus only because his old one wasn't either. You can receive Communication of the same medium as your own. And for Comprehend, I read the entry wrong, good eye. To rectify this, I added another rank for 2pp and took 2pp out of Reflex save.
N/A Posted January 7, 2010 Posted January 7, 2010 Actually Understand and speak any language 1 at a time is 1 point. If he wanted to understand all languages at all times and speak one at a time and read them all it would be 3 points. As he can only understand one at a time its 2 points IIRC. No, Nyrath is right. 1 Rank (2PP) lets you Understand Any/All Languages. 1 Rank lets you Read/Write Any/All Languages. 1 Rank lets you Speak Any/All Languages, One At A Time. 2 Ranks in this direction let you Speak Any/All Languages Simultaneously, such that anyone who hears you understands you. Aside from the last two, these ranks can be purchased independent of each other, in any order.
angrydurf Posted January 7, 2010 Posted January 7, 2010 Blerg I was looking at the pp cost he had listed not the ranks.
