Interesting - you're right, I hadn't considered this as being an option.
I can see why it should be allowed, though - since the blast and stun
are alternate powers of each other, you can't use them both at the same
time. I'll check into this and see what the deal is.


Until then, I'm pretty sure you can get the same result if you give both
the Blast and Stun powers the "Accurate" power feat - it'll cost 1 point
to put it on Blast, then Stun can get it for a "free". That might put
you over cost on the device, though.


Thanks for bringing this to my attention!
