It's always on (it follows the rules as if it was a Global).

Global: This enhancement functions as a set bonus and is always on, even if in a toggle that is turned off or even if the power is greyed out because of exemplaring. However, the bonus of this Special IO is turned off if one exemplars more than three levels below the level of the Special IO itself.

Also worth noting: It adds perception based on your BASE perception. Base perception is 500 feet, so the 20% that the +Perception IO adds would make it 600 feet. Any OTHER perception bonuses from Tactics, Targeting Drone, Focused Senses, Danger Sense, etc. are applied AFTER the +Perception IO.
So, the 20% is effectively always going to be an extra 100 feet. It will not add 20% to your enhanced 800 foot perception from other powers.

Is that true? so effectively that IO makes all those powers (FA, Tactics, TD, etc) better for making the BASE perception into a higher number?
That would've been good to know back when PvP mattered and hunting stalkers was fun :-/

[/ QUOTE ] IIRC, all bonuses are applied to base values separately and simply stack with each other. That's true for Damage, Tohit, regen, recovery, etc..
In other words, no, those powers do not become more powerful. He was just pointing out that it's 20% of the base itself, not 20% of your total with powers running.

Hmmm, this explains why mine is level 12 and is in Focused Accuracy.
What? You never did something and then months later wonder why?

Yes that is the way things work AFAIK, but his wording suggested otherwise.
Does anyone know if slotting this in Aim will give you the perception increase even while Aim is down (or not being used), or do you only get the 20% perception increase when Aim is executed?
