Now, you can add "Cosmic, Lingering Effect, +100%" so the target doesn't have a way to stop the cyclic damage once it starts. But your target still gets to resist this with his HT vs your Will to prevent the damage in the first place.

And multiplicative modifiers, as presented in Powers, wouldn't change this. The rule only affects how limitations work, and you don't have any limitations on this ability.
Yes it does. One possible use of Cosmic Irresistable is to bypass DR. But another possible use is to allow no resistance roll. Since Malediction is in use here as well the two compliment each other rather nicely.
