Question on meter usage

I did not get to play the beta too much, I had a lot of connection issues. So I have a question on meters and supers.

 

Is it true that When you do a level 2 super when you are close to getting a level 3, when the level 2 is complete, you will not be back to zero meter, but will have a level 1 meter fully charged and ready for a level 1 ?

In most instances you can fire off two Level 2's in a row.

So doing a Super does generate meter? The live TV cast we had yesterday, the host then had it wrong. I was indeed right?

Doing a super doesn't generate meter. It has a specific cost that is unique to the characters. So, performing a super subtracts from your current AP.

No, the super doesn't generate meter as far as I'm aware.

 

Basically, each super has an AP cost. If you fire off a level 2 when close to a level 3, it'll deduct the amount set for your super, leaving whatever AP remaining still free to use. If this is enough to keep your meter in the level 2 area, then you can fire it off again whenever you wish.

Then how is it that if you are close to level 3 and do a level 2, you end up with level 1 fully charged? if it does NOT generate any meter, it should be close to level 1 and not level 1 charged up.... hope I'm making sense.

 

Ah nevermind I think I get it.

I think it's dependent on the super. Some have greater costs than others. So some could put you close to a level 1, others could leave with enough AP to have a level 1 fully charged.

Re: Question on meter usage

Right, so it depends on each character's super. Interesting, I hope later we will have a nice table with the various super costs.
