Limited

An FX with this flaw is not effective all the time. Limited FX generally break down into two types: those usable only in certain situations and those usable only on certain things. For example Only Useable While Singing Loudly, Only Usable While Flying, Only Usable on Men (or Women), Only Usable Against Fire, Not Usable on Yellow Things, and so forth. As a general rule, the FX must lose about half its usefulness to qualify for this modifier.
A great many other modifiers can be seen as variations on the Limited flaw (such as Unreliable, which also makes an FX ineffective about half the time), a number of examples are provided throughout these rules, but players and GMs should feel free to come up with their own.
==Partially Limited==
If your FX is only somewhat effective in particular circumstances, then apply the flaw to only some of its ranks. For example, an attack FX that does half damage against targets with Enhanced Toughness (to represent a diminished ability to penetrate armor, for example) applies the Limited flaw to only half of its ranks.
