I remember working on a gunslinger Adept a few days ago and I decided it would be awesome if his geas for improved reflexes was, that he can only use it while smoking a good cigar. I think this is a good way to handicap yourself, because 1) It costs money 2) you have to make sure to always have a few cigars with you as well as something to light it 3) it probably takes at least one initiative pass to get it out and light it 4) having a lit cigar in your mouth all the time would make infiltration quite a bit harder and of course 5) it's abso-fraggin-lutely cool I really hope my GM will let me keep it that way when I decide to finally bring the character into play.

Yeah, I've always been wondering about those Geas, what's considered reasonable and what isn't? A 25 (or 50) percent discount is awesome and makes Improved Reflexes 3 a very good thing to grab.
One of the geas available being "Character makes gestures, so can't use X if handcuffed, tied down, paralyzed etc."... that's kind of a no-brainer for combat powers, right? Not having access to your hyper reflexes when you're incapable of fighting anyway... that's not a big sacrifice to make.

Geas : Must be under X substance to have acces to your adept powers would be a good Geas imo. Burnout addiction here I come !

Most gesture geas makes fighting pretty hard.
Shooting at bad guys and doing gestures with your hands at the same time is quite hard after all

Or you end up getting bonus style points for shooting enemies while moonwalking...

I would allow it in my game, but not with the Increased Reflexes power. Not EVER. No one gets a PP 2 power to give +3 REA dice and +3 IPs. I'ma hit any player that tries with ALL of my rulebooks, including ones from older editions.

It looks cheesy, but he can still get Increased Reflexes 3 and some other fun implants for the same amount of essence (and a lot of money) - without any restrictions on his power, or need to spend a 10bp quality. Put in that context, I'm not really seeing the problem... in fact, I'd be all for it.

My man. Enjoy your extra positive rep.

how about Geas "Listening to Michael Jackson with loud speakers" and Centering "do a Michael Jackson move"
