A Modern World of Supers [Supers]

Unfortunately, there are better ways to do super-strength than through using the super-strength modifier. For example, a superhero could invest in Will 20 [50], Energy Reserve 10 (Stunts Only, -10%) [27], Enhanced ST 10 (Reliable, +10, +50%; Super, -10%) [112], Extra Option (Godlike Extra Effort) [1], Regeneration (Extreme; ER Only, -0%; Super, -10%) [135], and Visualization (Based on Will, +20%; Cosmic, No die roll required, +100%; Reduced Time 7, +140%; Reliable, +10%, +50%; Super, -10%) [40]. The combination of abilities costs 365 CP (not including any power talents), so it is the equivalent cost of ST 27/50.

What is the result of that combination? The Visualization functions as a free action, allowing enhancement of one roll per turn during combat (÷3), which always ends up winning by a margin of 27, or a combat bonus of +9, due to Cosmic, which can modify extra effort The godlike extra effort allows the character to dump 10 ER into extra effort (which is recovered every turn by Regeneration). With Will 20, +9 from Visualization, and +10 from Reliable, the character can reliably succeed by +20 on an extra effort roll, which translates to +100% per ER spent, or +1,000% for 10 ER, which turns Enhanced ST+10 into Enhanced ST+100 (ST 110).
