bump?

You'd be better served asking 40k rpg questions in the 40k general, anon.
But when you have bonuses to tests, those bonuses are for the tests, they do not count as additions to your attribute. In this case, you would have, from talents, a bonus +40 to the Willpower/Agility test, before penalties are applied.
They would give you a higher cap on Degrees of Success, but would not (virtually) increase your Willpower attribute, or increase your WP bonus unless the ability expressly says it does so, like Unnat Attributes.

I'll post in WH40 generals next time then, my apologies.

Ahh. Well okay then. They're just bonuses for tests.

Further rules clarification: What is the maximum benefit a bonus may give you? Supposing you had the minimum required for the talent, suddenly any roll of 60 and below nets you a single success in resisting psyker powers. Resistance; Psyker gives another +10.
If you bought this talent 8 times, suddenly any roll of 99 or lower should net a single success. Unless suddenly 100s miraculously stop being an automatic failure.
But can you buy more and make those count? I mean, in a normal scenario, the bonuses are redundant. But what if you want to offset the difficulty around you?
Could you purchase it enough to offset possible penalties? Like say you were preoccupied. Suddenly the GM rules you get a -60 penalty to your roll. If you happened to buy Psychic Null 12 times after that, a total of 20 times, would that mean virtually any roll still counts as a single success? Or would a penalty of -60 mean you can only succeed on the percentile dice on a 40 or lower?

What about if you jacked the bonus up so high that even rolling a 99, your roll counted as if you rolled low enough to use your entire Willpower Bonus because you rolled so far under the target number? Would that be possible?
Or worse, what if we assume the bonus is so high that even rolling a 99, you still reap the entire rewards of your Willpower Bonus? So no matter whom attacks you, they still would not only need to succeed their roll, but land as many successes attacking you as you get evading them.
In theory that'd mean 4 for a rinky dink willpowered character, up to 12 for a guy with max willpower. Not counting augments or mutations.

I mean it'd cost you a minimum if 9,600 EXP, but the hard rules do seem to indicate player characters could do it.

After all pluses and minuses are factored, you can only have a total +/-60 modifier to a roll. So if you have +80 and the DM hits you with -10, it's still a +60 roll. That's the only real hard limit involved. I still wouldn't do it if I were you, though. Blank powers ain't worth shit against a lasgun.

Opposed tests are just that, opposed test, the only thing that matters is who had the most DoS, having +60 to your 35 wp, and rolling 100, would still lose out to a 15 wp psyker rolling a 1 since 2 dos > 1 dos
