Pricing Advantages Based on Difficulty

[DangerousThing]

This is a game. The designers tried to pride things by usefulness. They also lowered the price on a few things to help characters survive (Combat Reflexes comes to mind here).

For example, Unaging isn't all that useful in a standard campaign. I've never had a character die of old age, for example.

Most of the stuff can't be learned.

Talents aren't actually a particularly good example of very specialized attribute modifiers, because many Talents affect both IQ- and DX-based skills.

A much better example would be Resistant to Disease or Resistant to Poison, or more generally Resistant (which can function as a specialized version of Will or HT).
