advantage for building your own Gadget-limited advantages?

That's about the way I would handle it if the advantage doesn't have a further enhancement, like 'Physical, +50%' (admittedly, that enhancement is for Modular Abilities, not Affliction itself, but I think it should be allowable to port it over if the Affliction isn't already inside MA).

If I were using Modular Abilities to be able to re-arrange Affliction points then since B35 defines it as a physical advantage I think you're right you'd need the +50% enhancement on MA.

One possibly way around that might be to take a modifier on Affliction which transforms it into a mental advantage such as "requires will roll" or "requires IQ roll" since Powers talks about how that can change the nature of advantages.

If it was just Affliction but you had Variable Enhancement then this wouldn't really matter though.
