These ought to help http://www.sageadvice.eu/2016/04/21/can-i-cast-underwater/ http://www.sageadvice.eu/2016/11/01/if-a-creature-can-breath-underwater-can-it-perform-the-verbal-component-for-spells/ In past editions spells casting was certainly done under water. In 5e you now have underwater...

Yea it trips me out to notice the influence in random places. Why I always say Dune is the go to material for Psionics among other things.

That was sarcasm. The abilities I mentioned cannot be dispelled by RAW and RAI. The real key one would look for would be duplication of a spell, while ignoring things that do not duplicate a spell 100%. The developers have clearly stated this countless times. Psionics has historically been...

I really have to address the whole, "I don't like it so it shouldn't exist," as I see this comment a lot. Just because you don't like it does not mean that others feel the same. Simply do not play it. If Wizards of the Coast had this logic regarding all the classes, no class would exist.

You need look no further than Frank Herbert’s Dune series, which Star Wars and most modern science fiction is influenced by. I must also point out that the Dark Sun setting is heavily Psionic based and even that setting is influenced by Dune.

By that logic most abilities would be affected by dispelling effects. I guess I found a way to keep a feind warlock from getting those temp hit points or a Paladin from using his Aura. In any case Pisionics has historically been its own thing in DnD and only effects that replicate spells would...

The Major issue that I see is that this does not follow Mystic Progression: https://media.wizards.com/2016/downloads/Psionics_and_Mystic_V2.pdf A lot of what you are coming up with for the classes are actually better as Disciplines and Focus Abilities. You do have great ideas and that is most...

Turns out there was a Non Martial Version of this class called Divine Soul. http://www.dandwiki.com/wiki/Divine_Soul_(3.5e_Class) The best fix for Favored Soul would be to change their spell casting from Sorcerer to Cleric. There would also be a need to change the Capstone.

I fixed the Unarmed Defense. I just do not agree with the martial upgrades to sorcerer when it comes to weapons and armor it steps too much on what the Cleric has going for it. The extra attack doesn't really fit in the new edition and steps too much on what the bard is trying to do. Giving them...

I did a rebalance and wrote my reasons for why the conversion doesn't fit 5th edition well. http://www.enworld.org/forum/showthread.php?462374-Favored-Soul-Re-balance&p=6651016#post6651016

I had a chance to check out Rodney Thompson's conversion of the Favored Soul from 3.5 to 5th and have been pondering over it for weeks. While I do feel that there were some very interesting ideas presented I do feel that there were some things that were left out. In 3.5 Favored Soul was to the...
