Default Linked Limitations

Ok, if you've got a power (Invisibility in this case) that has a bunch of Limitations and Enhancements stacked up on it, and is Linked to another ability in this case (in this case we'll say Enhanced Time Sense) that can only be used with the first power in question, do the Limitations/Enhancements transfer to the second ability as well? For sake of specifics, we'll say Limited Duration, though I'd also be curious about something like Costs Fatigue 4, where it costs fatigue to use the first ability, and thus to use the second ability, but only 4 FP total.

Default Re: Linked Limitations

In the case of "always on" traits like Invisibility and Enhanced Time Sense, do not use Link -- put all the activation limitations on the trait which which give you back the most points and put Accessibility, Only while other trait active, -10% on the other (adjust the exact phrasing to the trait, such as "Only while invisible"). When an always on trait has Accessibility it automatically switches on when the accessibility condition becomes true -- in this case, activating the other trait.

There are some exceptions, for example Trigger.
