Hi!

So, if I have a move that involves 3 different proficiencies (say Ranged, Homing, and Area), and I want to be able to combine them in multiple ways (normal, homing, explosive, and homing+explosive), would the cost of the move be 900 OM (300x3 for the 3 different base states that can be combined) or would it he 1,200 OM (300x4 for the 4 different types of shots)?

1,200.

Actually, it would be possible to make it only cost 900 OM. For example, say it takes 1 second to charge the basic version, and extra second to make it explosive, and an extra second to make it homing, you could then combine the homing and explosive aspects by spending 2 extra seconds without spending more OM.

300 - Basic Ranged
300 - Homing
300 - Area Attack

And you can combine homing and area attack as a freebie.

Ebony's Elemental Blast move is an example of something like that.

You cannot, however, make other aspects of the attack vary based on other modifiers. So, you can't have the explosion usually have a 2ft radius, but decrease down to 1ft when made homing as well, for example. (Unless you want to spend more OM)

Aaaaaaand this is why Whirda does not answer moves questions.  Good info, I didn't know that.
