That’s an awesome idea!
Huh. I get the feeling I’m the only one who doesn’t really give a damn about Jacob.

Actually a healing power for the MC would be kind of awesome? It would sort of lean into the theme/idea of the MC as not being a particularly combat useful player when compared to their classmates–and if you’re only doing one power it might make more sense to do something that wasn’t an option for the MC to think about having

But that would make the ouch bar totally useless.

A lot of people seem hellbent on nerfing the z-powers into a farce non-choice, choice.
Doing this would go against the whole storyverse built in installment one and so far in installment 2 - yet it seems to be a preferred method to “secure” the primacy of being non-powered.
Having both a powered and a non-powered alternative is something that actually fits the CCH universe best - ymmv.

Sorry man, but some characters have to die.
At first I felt the same way. But the kid has kinda grown on me.
But if we don’t nerf the Zenith Powers wouldn’t that run the risk of having an MC that is way too OP?

Are you saying you don’t trust in @Eric_Moser 's ability? If anything, he is being extra-careful and even erroring on the side of weakness as it is - for both easier coding and better story-telling.
It honestly sounds to me more sour grapes of those who enjoy being non-powered trying to advocate their position and trying to force it as the the only “official” cannon.

I have no read this for moths but I want comments my own point of view. I don’t want be forced to have powers at all. What attracted me in first place is Not having them. Everywhere are ultra op Powered people like heroes rise. But I want to be the human normal people helping there and use technology and smarts to be able to mingle with powered people. I don’t saying get rid of pc powers for people who wanted them. Just I DON’T WANT TO BE FORCED TO HAVE POWERS AT ALL. I don’t want found when I will bought the app that my choice of NOT searching or wanted powers . Game is far railroad as it is to now have to be powered in a game that was different because that fact just my to cents.

Every “research” path to increase ability is non-powered but one. 2/3 of the paths will be: increasing your mind or your man-made aids … only one path is pursuing the powers.
I’m not sure how that is being railroaded.

No that’s not railroad railroad was all character development in first game.To the point I can’t role-playing thos game at all.
I do like the healing idea (I can imagine it would create lots of tough decisions!) but I think I will stick with some sort of Pow/Whoosh combo just to balance everything out.
BUT the Pow/Whoosh combo will have to be original, creative, and feature some sort of weakness that will create some tense moments. So definitely not overpowered. In fact, if anyone accuses me of having an overpowered MC, I will just look at them funny and say “WTF?” 
Because I have gotten dozens and dozens of emails and reviews from readers BEGGING to make their MCs super powerful! And I still resist!
The Stench armor will have the limits. Not OP. No unlimited ammo like it’s a 1990s comic or something.
The battle computer will have limits. Not OP. You’ll still have to rely heavily on your teammates working together.
So yes the Zenith power needs to have limits too. No way will it be OP.
But the MC will still have “plot armor” no matter what! So perhaps that’s the only overpowered part! After all, the MC has to make it to the point where the “Big Three” of the Dozen are tossing the poor MC around!

What I was going to say was that you could make it like healsmith in Scarlet Sails (correct me if I’m wrong) where you could heal others but not yourself.
