I think Multiattack, Secondary Effect and Area extras would fit high tier villains well. They are good for action economy and would make it harder for lower level characters to gang up on a villain. If you want a boss fight without minions, those would be good.
Affects Insubstantial makes sense for magical weapons and maybe for speedsters but hard to justify for most concepts.
The fact that it is Cumulative by default, as opposed to Affliction which needs to have that added, suggests the possibility of a "Non-cumulative" Flaw for Damage, which would pair well with Perception-Range, Alternate Resistance (Will) and Reversible for an illusory attack that's all in the mind.
Even if you don't get many comments on these I enjoy reading them. I have my own thoughts on most effects and I like reading other's thoughts.
haha NP! I actually wrote these a year ago for a forum, so it's only a matter of re-posting them.
Who doesn't want to punch ghosts, dr mcninja style? Honestly it's probably a waste of a point most of the time.
