x10 is pretty bad considering the trend of power we have now.

x5/x4.5 (or an ability that lets you add + .5 to the multiplier of any power up you have at a cost of additional PP) would be nicer.

Though how that can be earned 'fairly' is questionable. In the former (making it a really high multiple beyond what you can buy on your own), is that the only tier that gets awarded? Wouldn't that kind of trivialize the lower tiers and disincentivize people buying them if you didn't have to buy the lower tiers first? You have a situation where the popular characters are always the ones who have the ability to contribute most to a saga, rather than the ones who contribute most to a saga becoming popular characters. Lower tiered/newer people forgo buying the tier-ups, because if the best tier gets awarded for free regardless of your previous tier status, why bother buying x3/x4?

If we change it, it should be changed all the way. Not just some power ups, but ALL power ups should have to be awarded. In addition, saga runners should make a commitment to privately contact the person they're planning on awarding the Power Up to ahead of time - to make sure they don't screw up the character's arc of development.
