Is the Weapon Fu power overpowered? According to the rules on page 44, each Rank above 1 adds +3 to Ranged and Hand to Hand attacks. This is a twice a powerful as the Combat Mastery Talent as you need to choose Ranged or Hand To Hand attacks. Would it make sense to apply the same limit to Weapon Fu? So for each Rank above 1, you can chose to specialise in and to Hand or Ranged attacks. Or is the limit related to when using actual weapons (ie gear)?

It's pretty rare to have more than 2 Ranks for a power, but it is possible if that's all they have. The first rank essentially allows characters to move and attack without penalty (which isn't really overpowered in game play, just gives an edge). The +3 is impressive but is limited by the number of ranks. The "point cost" balances out as if it was 3 Ranks of the Talent Combat Mastery. Yes, you have to declare if it is Ranged or HtH like Combat Mastery. I suppose it isn't AS CLEAR as it is written for Combat Mastery. I think some of these questions need to be dealt with on a Youtube video. On the plus side, it's nice to have people discussing this.

Makes sense. I have noticed the other costs to be very consistent across the board so I was drawn to Weapin Fu. Thanks for clarifying. I have been building some characters, which I tend to do with any new Supers rpg to test out the powers etc. Anyway, I am loving Save the Day so far and look forward to what you have coming out in the future, particularly your Gear and Superior City sourcebooks.
