Namekians are a fairly strong race, even if the energy blasts are absent in this incarnation of their species.

Potential Perks

Namekians can acquire the following Perks by raising their Potential Skill.

Super Great Namek

A Namekian can master their Great Namek ability to enlarge themselves further in size, to colossal proportions! And be able to move and act more easily at giant sizes.

Requirement
♦ Namekian must have a Potential Skill Rating of 60 or higher to take this Perk.
> Except: If the Namekian has the Great Clan archetype, in which case their Potential Rating must be 40 or higher.

Effect
♦ Allows a Namekian to use the Great Namek ability to enlarge themselves up to Size 16, or 8 times their base size (whichever is smaller). (Normally: Namekians are limited to Size 4).
♦ Additionally, this reduces the ability's Action-Point Recovery rate penalty by 20.
♦ Note: A Namekian enlarging themselves above size 8 incurs a base 60% AP recovery rate penalty, so at Size 16, this Perk inflicts a 40% AP recovery rate penalty.

If the Namekian has the Great Clan Archetype, the total AP recovery rate penalty at Size 16 will become 20% instead of 40%.
