(Absorption, +80%) ... gives standard functionality.
(Absorption +1, (+80%; Requires Active Defense, -40%) +48%) ... doubles the Absorption Battery Capacity on a successful Power Block.
(Absorption +1, (+80%; Affects Others 1, +50%; Ranged, +40%; NO Absorption, -100%) +72%) ... allows the above enhancements to be used at range without interfering with Absorption's and Damage Resistance's normal functions.
(Selectivity, +10%) ... lets you turn off the ranged version of Absorption when you don't want to use it.
Aha, elegant! Thanks. That third clause is useful even if your allowed by the GM to double your battery on a successful power block.

Ill run with that, appreciate the help!
