By not being a full caster and having a different way of accessing the power. Magic can do anything. Wizards cannot. They have their limits Psion should have different limits. Rogues and fighters deal damage, but do so differently, and feel different in play. Even if they both average out...

Could do it the same way wild magic / spirit bard does. I.e. Half caster. Level 1: when you cast a spell roll a d6 on the table below. Level 2: When you roll on the table, you can spend 1 Psi Point to reroll the die, changing the result. Level 5: roll d8 Level 7: you can spend a psi point to...

Pick 2 subclasses.

If wizards can do everything they can do in media, what's the point of any other class? Just make a Summon Barbarian spell. But I agree that having them be full caster is very uninteresting.

Yes. And hardly the only one.

Here's the Pathfinder 2 version. I think it works quite well, except the banner which is a bit awkward IMO. .Demiplane

Not for this edition, but... I could see merging Ranger and Warlord into a single class. Call it Guide or something. "Ranger" being the subclass that gets druid spells. And give a bonus to leading a ghost army.

Yea, that's what I'll do.

Only combined with forced movement. Which is available to most classes.

They also get Web+Push+Archery style. Maybe dip fighter 2 for action surge to do it on the same turn. Doesn't scale to 3 attacks though. Oh. Eldritch Knight gets 3 attacks +web +action surge +Archery style.

Which also means they can toss it into any book. Including something like a Xanathar's.

There are over 200 spells. Even with 99% balance, that 1% is what everyone complains about. Also, it's not in 2024.

So I'm settling on sorcerer, but half caster and double metamagic and points. I think that could pass, and be different enough.

They reuse spells all the time in 5e. Warlocks can cast Levitate at-will, self only. Dragon Sorcerer can summon a dragon without concentration. And the UA psion can cast spells without verbal components, which works just fine. Just don't want yet another full caster. Do something different.

Probably not worth it, but Archfey 5 gets plant growth. Which also works great with Push. Gaze of Two Minds is also really fun. Am I missing any other good sorcerer zones?

It kind of already exsists. A mid level cleric has enough Command's to grant at-will-enough opportunity attacks, and no one claims that's overpowered. Battlemaster 15 can do it at-will. Haste also exsists, which grants extra action. I.e. As an action, one ally within 30' can immediately take...

It's a little better than that, because 20' difficult terrain. Even if they save, they may still need to spend their action to Dash instead of attack. Yes, I wasn't assuming hex past the first few levels. But it's still nice to have in your back pocket. True, but it can help add control for...

Speaking of... I could get behind Psion as a half caster + Augment points.

Depends on how many augments you get. A level 11 sorcerer has 26 spells, and 6 cantrips. So 32 choice each turn, not counting upcasting. 128 if you include a choice of 4 metamagic. If you have 6 augments, and choose 2 per spell, that's 30 combinations. (+1 or 2 free augments from your...

I'd be fine with a mosrly THP warlord. With a side of Healers feat.
