Hi there! Occasional lurker, rare poster. Been poking around Aberrant 2e, love it.
Right, so quantum powers can have Power Tags bought for them (in addition to the "free-per-dot" ones for QA). But there aren't a lot of clear rules or direction about what specifically is or isn't allowed on certain powers, aside from obvious stuff (armor tags on attacks is silly). Two specific examples I've hit a wall on:
Quantum Attack: it's an attack. You can slap all sorts of effects on it for range, AOE, etc. But I'm unclear if Duration (Instant) is listed just because Duration is on all of the powers but assumed to be static, or if it's something you could affect with something like the Duration power tag. Could you for example, slap a couple Duration tags on there, bumping it up to a Maintained DoT type thing?
Quantum Aura: Personal sheathe damage is pretty neat, I love this. Is is possible to assign either Range or Area tags to it, to increase the AoE? It seems like Range would be applied between the two, going on rules for explosives (Range increasing the range bands it covers), but I might be overthinking this.
I know we don't have the "final" final version yet, but it's hard not to be excited about this setting, they really nailed it imo. Thanks for any input/thoughts/etc!
