Description
Magnify allows the psionicist to magnify the effects of another power in all conceivable ways-e.g., double damage, double range, double modifiers, and so on. However, the affected power's initial cost is proportionately magnified, as is its maintenance cost. The psionicist initiates the magnify power first. At the same time, he must designate which power he intends to improve. Unless he maintains the magnification, he must immediately use the power he wishes to improve (in the same round). Otherwise he can maintain the magnification until he uses the affected power (a costly endeavor). Once the power has been performed, magnify must be reinitiated to perform again. The amount of magnification depends upon the psionicist's level, as follows:
Levels 6-10 x2 I
Levels 11-15 x3
Levels 16-20 x4
