But the Shapeshifting advantage, described in Basic Set on p. 83, says "To shift between forms, you must concentrate for 10 seconds. To speed this up, add Reduced Time (p. 108)."

So if you want to go instant for this, wouldn't you need to have "Reduced Time 10 (+200%)"?

Or am I missing something?

I'm probably missing something and would love someone to point me to it.

Start at 10 sec. Reduced Time 1 halves it to 5 sec. Reduced Time 2 halves that to 3 sec. Reduced Time 3 halves that to 2 sec. Reduced Time 4 halves that to 1 sec. Reduced Time 5 goes from 1 sec to instantaneous.

Note that there is rounding involved at steps 2-4.
