Could we trade Power slot for more points ?

Sorry I cant remember how are called the competence points that help reinforce the powers...

But I would gladly trade up to 4 of the powers slot for more of them, or 1-2 power slot for a talent.

Could some of the slot be adjusted to be "custom slot" where people can choose to put a talent, advantage points or a power slot ? This way you can more easily adjuts the hero to what you want.

Currently I am adding powers I dont care just because I have slot avaliable wich sound a bit... weird...

    Hm, this is worth a thought. Sometimes you don't really want more powers, sometimes you want to improve those powers you got. Yes, I do like that idea.

    I love this idea. I would rather have 4 powers that fit my idea, and that have more flexibilty, than taking powers that I dont think I'll every use just cause it's power point time.

    Maybe at a certain level we stop getting power points or advatage/rank points, and just get points. Then we could chose new powers or more advatages/ranks for current ones. Kind of like it was in the "good ole days"

    I'm 100% in support of this idea. Customization is great, but it shouldn't just mean picking a bunch of powers. It should also mean the option to pick less powers and make them stronger!

    I like it, a hand full of strong powers at the expense of heaving more powers.

    Another vote for a similar system. Great idea!

    I actually really like this too. My current main is pretty much set on powers already - it's not that more isn't fun, but the type of character she is, there aren't many left that actually make any sense concept-wise; so I may end up taking some powers "because I have to"; when I'd really rather boost my most important ones.

    The "custom" slot option is I think the perfect way to handle it; powers for people who still have more they want, points for people who have the powers they want, but need to beef up what they already have.

    How many powers does, say, any given x-men member have?

    I have been pushing this for a while.

    My level 30 Darkness framework character has every power, and will be forced to branch out for his last few. I can think of a few that would fit, but I shouldn't really have to.

    Key to this would be that it is strictly OPTIONAL, and also the lifting of the restriction on how many points you can put into a single power. Many powers have 6 or even 7 points of advantages you can buy, but a cap of 5. Is there really that much of a concern over balancing certain powers?
