Psy Rating 1 to 2

By Goodwin, in Dark Heresy Rules Questions

Hey everyone,

I'm in the middle of running the first campaign of my first Dark Heresy campaign. The characters have gotten themselves some experience by now and started buying some new skills. Thus far everything has been going great, but we came into abit of confusion when our psyker purchased Psy Rating 2. We were both confused as to the wording of the power. When someone takes a new Psy Rating level, we can't determine for certain whether they gain the amount of powers stated in the talent, or in total with the talent. In this case Psy Rating 1 gives you half of your will power bonus rounded up, and Psy Rating gives you your will power bonus. It seems like it could likely lean either way depending on how you interpret it, and how Psy Rating 3 reads as well. To be certain I just wanted to get a few opinions on it. So, with Psy Rating 2 should he get four /new/ powers (assuming his willpower is 40something)j, or should he only get half to match up with Psy Rating 1's half allowance, to make a full will power bonus worth of powers.

Hope that didn't confuse anyone.

Thanks for any help!,

That was an error, and the errata clarifies that Psy Rating 2 should grant a number of Minor Psychic Powers equal to one-half their Willpower Bonus (round up).

Awesome. Thanks a lot!
