Yes, it had intentionally bad scaling. "In the interest of preventing player character races that are biological artillery pieces, it is quite expensive to increase these abilities beyond minimal level."

The generic attack advantage, on the other hand, had linear levels that increased damage, 1/2 D, Max, area affected, and so forth, with Enhancements and a few limitations to customize it into binding or Will damage or whatever, which was a fairly cheap way to get lots of powers when combined with Selectivity, if I recall correctly.
