1. Leveled damage: The damage of Weakness increases by 100% per level while the value increases by 50% per level (for example, a vampire could have Weakness (Sunlight; 3d per minute) [-120].
2. Accelerated damage: 1d per 12 seconds would have a base value of [-30] while 1d per two seconds would have a base value of [-40].
3. Combined damage: A vampire who took 3d damage every two seconds from sunlight would have a disadvantage worth -240 CP (and would take 90x as much damage from sunlight for only 4x the disadvantage value).
What do you think, would you use horrific weaknesses in your settings?

I've just used Reduced Time to reduce the amount of time between damage and Vulnerability to multiply the damage. Weakness (Sunlight, 1d/min, Reduced Time 6, +120%) [-132] causes 1d damage per second in sunlight.
