By analogy with the Accessibility (Only in altered body form) limitation I've applied Accessibility (Only in conjunction with TK Grab, -10%).

"requires grapple" is a -10% limitation in Powers: The Weird for stuff with Melee Attack
Given that you can substitute your TK lifting ability for your own encumbrance with something like Warp, doing the same with 'requires grapple' (ie "requires grapple with body" or "requires grapple with TK") could follow that precedent perhaps

I think that should count as its own limitation on top of the Accessibility, but it's proving surprisingly tricky to find an appropriate one.

I'd be inclined to borrow the "Range Limit" limitation math from warp (B99) -5% x (10 + penalty) and just float it to malediction penalties instead of warp ones.
If you had malediciton 1 (-1 per yard) then if you set your max range at 2 yards then -5% x 8 = -40%, or merely -5% if you set it at 9 yards.
It works best with that though, I think it might need repricing with malediction 2 or malediction 3.
