Default Re: Duplication for Speedsters

A speedster who is so fast that they can be multiple places at once within the span of a single combat turn is probably fast enough that they can outrun shrapnel and possibly even some types of explosions.

That brings up another possible Accessibility Limitation for the power (Dupes must be within x yards of "creator") where x is the maximum distance the speedster can run in a turn divided by the number of dupes.

As a related thought, levels of Enhanced Dodge (Only to boost Dodge bonuses when making a Retreat maneuver) might apply to super-fast speedsters. Call it as -65% limitation for a flat 5 points/level. This represents the cinematic trick of outrunning explosions or "riding the wave" of expanding gasses.
