    Spelljamming in 3.5 - and - Psionics

    This is wrong. Rules as written for 3.5 is psionic / magic transparency - SR affects powers, PR affects spells, etc. They're treated the same. 3.0 had them treated separately, and it was one of the largest balance issues with 3.0 psionics. My DM initially had us treating them separately in...

    Psionics - What system/approach to use?

    Sure, if you don't mind being a punching bag first. And if your enemy isn't immune to mind-affecting effects. I mean, you can't use damage you've soaked up via Vigor to activate Hostile Empathic Transfer, since Temporary Hit Points don't work that way, and with a d4 HD, you're incredibly...

    Psionics - What system/approach to use?

    Oh, and just a quick note - the much derided Pun-Pun used to show how psionics is broken? Yeah, the "best" Pun-Pun wasn't even psionic. :) He used magic.

    Psionics - What system/approach to use?

    Just FYI, but I'm the Bacris that wrote that thread all those years ago - and took some of those points into consideration when updating the XPH to Pathfinder as Psionics Unleashed. For my CharOp cred, I was a regular on the old WotC CharOp forums and watched what could be done with Core-Only...

    Psionics - What system/approach to use?

    I'll just repeat Dandu. :) Just like there are problematic spells, feats, etc, there are problematic psionic powers. As long as you accept that no system is perfect and you may have to tweak to fit your playstyle, the 3.5 psionics ruleset is pretty great. :)

    Publishing Single-item PDFs - Advice?

    Well, the size of the product definitely makes a difference. The Bestiary product that we're working on, I'm expecting the budget for that is likely going to be at least $500, and it's only expected to be around 32 pages... But for Psionics Expanded, I imagine our art budget for that is going...

    Publishing Single-item PDFs - Advice?

    Absolutely. Sure, there are those who won't care, but production quality and artwork make huge differences. Take it for someone who has gone from virtually non-existent art budgets to now having art budgets that tend to START at $400 and still wishes it was more. You can get away with minimal...

    Loremaster Article: To GSL or not to GSL?

    As a publisher who dabbled in publishing in 4E by using the OGL instead of the GSL, I can tell you that going outside of the GSL made me hesitant. Additionally, since I don't play 4E, my expertise into the game was virtually non-existant, so I had to take other people's words for the balance...

    Psionics: How does Mind Seed actually work?

    So this is an interesting one. Reading the power, you actually have one part wrong: In no way does it say they get your class levels. "the subject becomes you in mind as you were when you manifested the power, but the subject’s level is eight lower than your own. (In effect, the subject has...

    Psionic Question

    For the most part, I agree with jrdeggman... Although personally, I would not allow a psicrystal to continue advancing in ability if the character no longer had the feat, and I would not allow a character to replace a lost psicrystal without the feat, because otherwise, that's a feat that would...

    Soul Knife - What is the point?

    I try to avoid plugging my own company's products, but if all you're looking for is the ability to have a mind blade in another class, we released Mind Unveiled: Mind Blade Feats a while back that does exactly that. It's for 3.5.
