Psions spend a feat, clerics get two domains right off the bat and get the spells earlier than the psion would plus more. Clerics domains have spells from other classes. You are placing restrictions on some areas and none in others even with items that are similar. Lesser choice but many...

162 choices plus an average of 16 from the discipline. So yes, saying otherwise is misleading. There is a method to get some extra powers but at a later level and with a heavy cost and this has to be taken into account. Although, even if that wasnt the case, the sheer number of spells that...

Are you still responding to me? My comment was 'Of course if the fighter type is immune to mind effecting then the psion cannot use any save or dies against him' which is limited to the save or dies you were talking about and is limited to mind affecting.. So... maybe you were thinking I had...

I dont know if this would help, but check this out if you have a little time. More Real than Real

Hey, you brought up the will save or die ability, I was just commenting on one of the weaknesses of the psion ;)

Vampire Psychic Warrior Stirge. Pick up a bunch of grappling powers in psychic warrior and suck everyone dry ;) it is even better if you can find a way for your allies to make your opponents able to be con drained somehow.. there are various spells to take away certain immunities.. At least...

Of course if the fighter type is immune to mind effecting then the psion cannot use any save or dies against him.. and really a large portion of the will save powers are gone as well. Uh oh! Sorc is looking better..lol

Simple weapon proficiency (all) Martial weapon proficiency (all) That is a nearly unbounded number of feats. Considering what and how you are counting it is valid to count 'all' as being an incredibly high number.. over 60 extra in the core rules alone. I guess we could also ask how many...

The number is wrong either way. But, if you are going to count it in that fashion then your comparison point is rendered void. At the very least you should put in a qualifier otherwise it is completely misleading. Blindness/Deafness, Blur, charm monster, mass charm monster, contact other...

A 1 to 5 isnt much different than a 1 to 10. You could effectively just double the numbers in the 1 to 5 and have a pseudo 1 to 10. But, either way it is highly subjective. I dont see how one is incredibly more subjective than the other. If one is useless the other would be as well. However...

Interesting. So you go from worth a feat (3) to basically +/-2. It seems that it would be better off as a general overall power level.. instead of feat equivalency.. feats have a huge variety of power level. And some things 'are' feats by definition.. at which point you are saying that feats...

Are you going to reupdate it with the comments that I placed in the other thread? I know you wont agree with all of them, and possibly none of them, but they are rather important.. especially the ones that explicitly disagree with numbers that you are using (I guess someone misscounted).

Talking is also a free action and picking up a couple of languages is a good plan in so many ways that it should just be assumed to be true.. or there are even magical ways around it or creatures who know common anyway (actually, are there even any summons who dont know common? hmm..) Plus...

With alter self you arent allowed to take on the form of a creature with a template. So there goes that idea.

you know, fire storm is a huge area and rather customizeable in shape.. 15d6 over an enormous area without hitting your allies.. or make sure they have some fire resistance.. Battlefield control ;)

Treants and Tendriculos are both pretty fun. treants look impressive and can bash through walls/objects with relative ease while the tendriculos has some pretty impressive grabbing abilities. But they dont help your general abilities too much.. although it is a lot of fun to summon up some...

I noticed that there were some spell categories in the pros and cons list.. I guess individual spells are out though? Alter self outdoes many of the psionic buffing powers and it has other uses as well. Pop up an alter self and change into a trog. you get 3 natural attacks and the feats to use...

focus requires a lot of work to get it to do something.. and if the psion is quickening then he likely has spent another feat, makes one or two skill checks, and isnt going to be using focus for something else.. such as empower. Plus, it means that the psion is using a move action and a free...

I am not sure why Arch mage isnt much help for a sorc. Doesnt it basically give beanies that are better than what are listed as 'psionic advantages' and more? It doesnt have any lost levels of spellcasting either. Loremaster is a bit tough to qualify for, but its benefits are rather incredible...

As far as I know initiative is used whenever you want to know who would act first in any situation.. You walk into a store to buy something and initiative is rolled (or can be, most groups dont do this, but for this example work with me ;) ). This just shows when each person will be acting. Say...
