Roll20 Game - "Storm Chasers"

I'm GMing a game on Roll20 and wanted an extra pair of eyes on their builds to make sure the math is there and I'm not missing any big potential issues.

Re: Roll20 Game - "Storm Chasers"

So far you have 3 characters posted, and while they aren't quite all rich, good-looking inventors with superspeed, they each have three of those 4 aspects. It's not necessarily a bad thing, but you might want to talk to them about focusing on particular niches so they don't have a lot of team redundancy.

Presumably Beacon's Strength and "Beacon Vision" are based on the same descriptor since they are Alternate Effects of each other, so if anything manages to Nullify one of those, it will take out both. Also, while using the Blast, his STR will drop down to 0, and he can only switch AE slots once per round as a Free Action, so there may be brief periods when he would be completely vulnerable to Grabs or other Strength-resisted attacks. As an alternative to lots of Accuracy ranks, might I suggest making Beacon Vision a Perception Range attack that automatically hits anything he sees?

Mercury actually has only 36p in skills, so she has a point leftover. Keep in mind that she can't attack or even pick things up in her Water Form, although ignoring physical attacks is good compensation. Then again, who'd want to hit her if she's so pretty?

Pulse has really low defenses against anything that isn't Ranged Damage attacks. I'm guessing he did those last, which is a common mistake when building PCs. He's also 10p over, presumably due to that Electrical Immunity. I'm not quite sure what the Environmental Scanner is meant to detect, but it seems to be priced right to detect something at range with a lot of detail. I'd recommend considering making at least one of the electrical attacks target Fortitude so that it overcomes Impervious or armored foes; that could be Damage with a Alternate Resistance (Fort) or a Stun-type Affliction. Overall, he might want to pick something to specialize in since he's overspent his points and still has bad defense. Personally, I'd tone down the suit and inventor aspects and stick with the electrical powers and machine communication, but it's not my PC.
