Lifting ST

Cost: 3 points per +1 ST

Lifting ST is an exotic physical advantage It adds to Basic Lift for the purposes of carrying, lifting, pushing, and pulling. It does not effect HP. Compare to Striking ST.

Disclaimers

B66 reminds of 2 critical ones:

• Lifting ST does not boost ST for the purpose of determining HP, throwing distance, or damage inflicted by melee attacks or thrown weapons.
• If you bought your ST with the Size limitation, apply the same limitation to Lifting ST.
• The No Fine Manipulators limitation does not give a discount, however.

Special Enhancements

• Super-Effort (+400%)

Alternatives

• Improved normal ST
• Striking ST

It would be unfair to let a super with ST 200 buy Lifting ST 1 (Reduced Time 3, +60%) [8] and lift everything as a free action. So I'd say it's fair but only if you buy it back on the rest of your "Striking" ST. That keeps it inline with TK.
