I'm confused about whether Suppress is considered Instant or Constant. 6e1 p196 says:
Suppress is Drain with the Limitation Costs Endurance (to maintain; -½); it’s considered a Constant Power.
...but then p197 also discusses adding Constant as an Advantage to Suppress. My interpretation is that adding Constant allows you to make multiple Suppresses without having to make additional attack rolls, but that even without that the effects of one Suppress are still Constant/Continuing (as long as you continue paying END)?
Specifically, can you put Continuing Charges on Suppress without first buying Constant for it? The last two paragraphs of p197 talk about this. The way I read it, the second-to-last paragraph discusses putting Continuing Charges on Suppress without Constant, and the last paragraph covers putting Continuing Charges on Suppress with Constant. That would seem to imply that both builds are legal? But not everyone agrees with this interpretation, and HD doesn't let you add Continuing Charges on Suppress unless you first buy Constant.
