For all those wanting Psionics to be it’s own unique mechanical system, I wouldn’t hold your breath
We might yet see a full Psion class. But I doubt we’re going to have Dicisplines/Sciences or Psionic Combat or anything that is a new system that people will have to learn.
it’ll be based on...
I just strolled across this tweet as well from Crawford and I think it’s very telling for all the ~8200 Psionics threads we have going right now.
To me that means there is no real impetus to develop Psionics as separate and unique from the spell casting framework that 5e already has as it...
That has only been an issue for the power gamer in my group as he tries to eek out every last shred of power he can from...whatever it is he’s trying to do.
For the rest of my crew we usually either know what we’re going to do or the story pushes us to something for our characters naturally. shrug
Maybe we should split this off as a separate discussion thread focused on your build? Dunno. OP can decide if he wants that.
Great leg work and I like what I'm seeing so far. I'm going to "livestream" record my thoughts below
Notes
The beyondness property is weird to me. Why not just make...
I think Swarmkeeper is an awesome idea/subclass. I don't think it's going to pass or get published.
Onomancy was one of my favorites, though I know there are issues with its implementation as is. I hope it sees official print, but I doubt it.
I think for me the for sure ones are Rune Knight...
Source: 2e Complete book of Psionics
I think most of the people who have issues aren't originally psionics from 3.x forward (is my guess). Those editions were very tied to foci and audible/visible displays of power, ectoplasm, etc.
2e and earlier OTOH was the opposite. As is most sci-fi...
@ChaosOS thanks for that point on land ownership and raw resource extraction, it's also a great point.
@tetrasodium I don't see the Mark of Handling having any faculties with crops or agriculture.
That is an interesting point I'd never thought about before.
Given that there is a Mark & House that dominates animal breeding/handling, it is surprising that one hasn't arisen related to monopolization of food resources themselves.
I wonder @Hellcow if there is a reason there no a Mark...
What’s the source on that received wisdom? WotC publish a number of great adventures in the 3.x era.
Forge of Fury, Red Hand of Doom are still favorites of many people.
Yeah. I voted for Psion in that poll. I do think it should be a class.
That said, if all I get in 5e is subclass versions of that, I‘ll be fine and still able to play Psion with the various subclasses (assuming those see print at some point).
They haven’t “turned psionics into wizardry” they have release a play test for people to evaluate.
Not sure what “player directed books” means?
People want adventures. So them publishing adventures is a bad thing?
As to crafting rules... there are multiple versions of those rules and...
Dukkoti saw one of the archers down near him and ran for the body and the bow. He slid down next to the body using it as a shield.
move 30', action: dash 30', slide prone in the sand next to the body of the fallen archer.
Free object - grab the bow
