Every single ability was 1 AP, and maybe 2 or 3 for AKA/passive X factors. Take out the 0 AP nonsense. No need to constantly change the cost or cap, just keep the thresholds so better players will get better abilities. That way we still have flexibility to choose our own abilities without giving an unfair advantage to certain players based on discounts and stats will start to matter more again.
What do you guys think?
