Hi Guys, I am trying to figure out how Array works.

For a Power Level 10 game, what is the Maximum your array can be? 10, 15, 20, 42?

Thank you~~

Array power points or ranks are not capped. It's just a mechanic to allow grouping of similar powers together with a discounted cost.

Your array can be however large your GM approves. The only thing that will cap it is if you use any effects that are restricted by PL. Your default effect will determine how many points you can spend on your alternate effects.

Extras add to the cost of the default power while Flaws make them cheaper. Whatever your most expensive power in the array costs is the cost of your array (plus 1pp for each alt effect).

Possibly worth noting that, with Dynamic array slots, you might readily have an array rank higher than the possible rank of the involved powers since you may want to have enough points to fully fill one power with enough left for others.
