Why would that be the case? The more powerful ones start out more powerful, that means that after scaling they will still be more powerful even if that difference ends up being trivial as they both get stronger.
As you get stronger the summoning costs also get less relevant but the stronger ones cost more even if that difference in cost ends up being trivial as your resource pool gets larger.

seems pretty cool >my own pocket dimension how'd you create it? >proposals have to be approved by me and my deva also what's your role in all this?

I doubt it. The Gamer only works because Gaia is actively shoring Ji-Han up, the power isn't internal to him. You'd gain his ability to connect to Gaia, but in other worlds there would be nothing to connect to.

You would also need the Power is Jumper's for that to work I think.

All the time if you can fight the police who get in your way of justice. Sometimes old fashioned retribution is a good thing when the law won't do shit or isn't moral.
Depending on the world the police can just be mooks or an actual threat.
Main Chain created a utopia on Gunsmoke. There was no need for banditry anymore, because Slime Technology/Breeding basically made a lack of resources not a thing anymore. My only regret was that I didn't have enough time to consolidate what I did with it, on account I had only nine years total. But it was a beautiful, green place, with infinite water. And it all happened through my effort.
I wanted to stay there, but I couldn't. The multiverse called.

Not necessarily. The perk as written simply seems to guarantee a minimum effectiveness. Well, if both the high tier summon and the low tier summon are below that minimum effectiveness, why would the high tier scale that much higher than that minimum effectiveness, while the low tier would be brought to the minimum effectiveness? It seems like both would simply be brought to the minimum effectiveness point. Also, sometimes your resource pool isn't necessarily going to get larger, or it involves a permanent diminishing of your resource pool. Consider D&D where you have more or less fixed spell slot capacity. Or in Overlord (series) where, while it can be mitigated with an 800 point perk, some of the top tier summons require XP expenditures, e.g. permanent reductions in power, some of them seeming from canon comments to scale in cost according to overall level. Granted, outside of a Dragonball Z or Gurren Lagann level end jump, a Seraph Empyrean or Overlord Wiseman will almost certainly always be above that minimum usefulness threshold, particularly if you have any summon-buffing perks, but the fact that bottom tier summoning could be just as potent as them cast by the same person seems off to me.

I guess this is the part where, while the perk's good on it's own merit, you need to combo it with something else - e.g. perks or items to remove spell cost or make the cost negligible - to really make it practical?
I mean you could try to convince OAA to bake that into the perk, but remember that it is packed with a general "If you want something done right, your minions will fucking do it right" boost. Not much he could do with it at the moment without taking away from that first half.

>seems pretty cool Thanks!
>how'd you create it? I went with the Spirit of the Living World thing from Infernals, and then just imported it in Cracker_Jack's two jumps to upgrade it further.
Then just spend a lot of time making it bigger.
>also what's your role in all this? Mostly, I just live in the cloud palace I got from the Kamigawa jump and relax when I'm there. Occasionally I increase the size of the pocket dimension.
I've got a lot of ceremonial functions (for which I sometimes show up) and get invited to most events (for which I show up more often).
Theoretically, I'm the god-emperor or something. Not sure what title to go with yet... Practically, I'm mostly an observer making sure things don't go really wrong, sit in on the rare councils to approve new laws, and make sure the deva and other city governing bodies stay reasonable in their (somewhat) inhuman perspectives.
Full rulership would be too much bother/paperwork, and I'd probably fuck things up while influenced by drawbacks at some point. So I've mostly got veto rights, and some influence as the creator of the place and ancestor of a good percentage of the population.
Though... technically, the deva are aspects of me, and they handle most of the actual governance (insofar as that exists), aside people who get promoted into those positions on merit. So I'm sorta in charge in that sense? But they're also their own people, so not really.
There's also the state religion being me-worship, but it's not required for anything and not really widespread amongst the populace. Still, they know that a well-timed call for aid can help in emergencies.

What the fuck would you write in to the perk and have it make sense?
This seems like something you'd need to just cover with other perks, rather than have one do everything.
