M&M 2e Pregens and Saving Throws

[The Glyphstone]

I'm trying to run a M&M 2e game online, but poring over the book I'm finding something weird. The Power Level section says that Fortitude/Reflex/Will saves should all total (PL+5) or less, +15 total for PL10. But every single one of the Hero Archetype pre-generated characters in the core book violates that by having a total save spread too high. What am I missing here?

That bit is rather poorly worded. Fortitude, Reflex and Will saving throws are limited to PL+5 each; most characters don't come anywhere close to the cap, but it's legal for a PL 10 character to have +15 in all of them. I suspect the 'total' word there is meant to specify that the limit applies to your total bonus, as opposed to the soft limit on skill ranks. (That is to say, ability modifiers can take you above the limit on skills, because the PL cap specifies ranks, but for saves it caps the total bonus).

Okay, that makes far more sense. Thanks.
