But it only lasts one to three rounds :( and it's a pretty high difficulty. Plus, I like a sense-based power for this effect.


So make it a modified version of Enhanced Attribute. Make it so that it can be kept up, but that the 1/2/3 round limiter is the amount of time it takes for that dice bonus to come in to effect, something like:

Perception
+1D / 1 round
+2D / 2 rounds
+3D / 3 rounds

Anyone ever felt like Enhance Attribute would be more realistic if it were broken up into separate powers for each Attribute?

I could easily see each 'attribute' having its own Enhance attrib skill.

Or maybe splitting the difference and having three Enhance skills: Enhance Body (for Dexterity and Strength), Enhance Mind (for Knowledge and Tech) and Enhance Senses (for Perception and Mechanical)?

But then, with three different powers, would you need different rules for each one? The standard rules for Enhance Attribute would work fine for enhancing Strength and Dexterity, but what about the others?
