    Psion's Psi crystal -- must this be purchased?

    In 3.0 (Psionics Handbook), psicrystal was a class feature, not a feat. As such, it was always expected of a psion to have one - it came with the class, much like a familiar for wizards. In 3.5 (Expanded Psionics Handbook), psicrystal became a feat, and psions got a bonus feat at first level...

    D&D 3.x 3.5 Psionics.

    Move action Dimension Door is all about doing something and getting out of Dodge - not about teleporting in somewhere and laying waste, since you can't do anything after manifesting it until your next round. It's really not that bad given the "can't do anything afterwards" caveat.

    D&D 3.x 3.5 Psionics.

    Using Schism is the only way I see that as feasible. Unless you're trying to intentionally misread the way Anticipatory Strike or Synchronicity work (both from CPsi)

    D&D 3.x 3.5 Psionics.

    Not RAW... but most GMs I know (myself included) allow it.

    D&D 3.x 3.5 Psionics.

    There are about ten pages of decent material in CPsi... The rest...meh.

    D&D 3.x 3.5 Psionics.

    Resource management is slightly more difficult with a pool instead of spell slots, but I've known plenty of casters who blow through their higher level spells and end up only having utility / weak spells left for that last encounter of the day. :) It goes back to my point - any class can go...

    D&D 3.x 3.5 Psionics.

    :) Thanks, ProfessorCirno. I won't knock Bruce Cordell, tho - he did a great job on the XPH (even if I think he phoned it in on Complete Psionic - or didn't fight for it). In an interview I did for the Know Direction Pathfinder podcast, I made a reference to a few fantasy books where "magic"...

    D&D 3.x What are the main changes from 3.5 to Pathfinder?

    Not to toot my own horn... but my publishing company, Dreamscarred Press, released a Pathfinder RPG version of psionics - Psionics Unleashed. It's in my signature and there are quite a few places you can read informed reviews on if it's "good non-official" (Amazon, Paizo, RPGNow, and...

    D&D 3.x What are the main changes from 3.5 to Pathfinder?

    I very much like how they've changed combat maneuvers. I'm seeing them get more use in my games, because they're simpler. AoO? Yes, no. Roll with CMB - beat CMD? Yes, no. No opposed rolling and cross checking, size penalties significantly better for PCs. Tripping / Disarms / Bullrush were...

    D&D 3.x 3.5 Psionics.

    Ah, but I could argue - by that sentiment - that there is nothing actually different between divine magic and arcane magic. They're the same thing, right? Except they're not. Even if they can cast the same spells - the character concept is drastically different, the lore around the character...

    My love letter to WotC

    Yeah, I know that was the official reason... But that's very much a knee-jerk overreaction. Piracy of your new PDFs a problem? Don't release them immediately in PDF... That's fine. Not everyone is going to like it in the Digital Age, but the overreaction in pulling EVERYTHING definitely...
