For me the biggest problem of the Driders is that they're often portrayed as bestial and having low intellect, which negates one of their biggest strengths: using tools to supplement their natural abilities.
Also, I never really liked the lore of Lolth punishing them.

Re: Jab's Power Profiles: Snare! Nullify! Weaken!
I always thought that Hulk rage was more in line with Boost, rather than Enhanced Strength.

Re: Questions on Telekinesis build via Move Object
In 2e Areas could be labelled as Targeted, meaning that using them required the character to make a "to hit roll" and compared them to the Defense of all the people inside the area. This also allowed to build Multiattack Areas, but the option went away in 3e. BTW, in both 2e and 3e Leveled...

Re: How far does a sense that is made to be Ranged reach?
In 2e weapons had a maximum reach of 10 increments and sense followed a similar logic.

Are you playing in 3e or 2e?

Re: Jab's Power Profiles: Snare! Nullify! Weaken!
Magic (and psionics by extension) are a problem because most writers think of it as a universal solution, rather than a power with limits and complications. As absurd as it might sound, Zatanna is a great magic-based character because her power have a very clear and well defined limitation: no back...

Re: Jab’s Builds! (Nightwatch! Deathgrin! Warforce! Streets of Rage!)
Interestingly, Street of Rage 2 broke the mold by having Blaze as the balaced character, Skate as the quick bastard, Axel as the power & speed and Max as the tank.

Street of Rage 2 was the third beat'em up I've ever played (after Double Dragons and Golden Axe) and is still in my top 5 today.

Re: The T-Verse (Earth 75): Hanna-Barberra Heroes - Space Ghost & Teen Force
This is interesting stuff: for eons I considered Hanna-Barbera the rancid anus of animation, and liked only their modern stuff that ripped on the old stuff or altered it to make it funny. I hadn't even realized they were into the superhero business 50 years ago. I still love the comment Chuck Jones...
