So what I gather from these responses is that it is less important what the psion can do, but instead how they do it.

In response to the OP: eat, drink, and make baby psions.

We run a homebrew 5e with a mix of 14 & 24, but mostly our own version

What do you consider a 1-shot adventure? How long to expect the game play to be? What levels does this cover? Does it include the monsters / npcs or do you need the MM or books to fill out the stat blocks.

My notation was +9 to hit / a 23 AC

That is what I did - I always just forget which side the hit goes one. So, All my numbers should go up by 5. So 50% is better then 35% same idea tnough

Yes, that is what 9/23 means: +9 to hit a 23 AC is hit on 14 out of 20z 20-14 =6 = 30%

18 is Max in our game. I keep forgetting that’s a house rule of ours. That being said it’s only a 5% difference. We also don’t allow ASI unless it’s part of a feat

No, I was responding to the comment that suggested raising AC a few points instead of having higher HP. So it is entirely relevant to discuss why higher AC is not good for those who don’t want to have magic items.

+ +4 from ability and +5 from proficiency

Were 9/23 =23-9=14/20=70% miss or 30% hit. I could be wrong, math is not my thing I could easily be off by 5% or so, I always forget which way to apply the hit

9/20 =45% to hit ; if you up the AC by a few points it is 9/23 =30% to hit. 30% is less fun than 45%. Of course at that level (15) you could see monsters with AC 22, so a few points higher might get you 9/25 =20%

You might look at the arch hag in the new MM, it had some interesting curses IIRC

It still can be though if you wanted it

They have the LotR 5e book, which is similarly different (though not as much I think).

I suspected as much, but the math says otherwise.

Perhaps the medallion operates by rotating or otherwise manipulating parts, pieces, or surfaces of the medallion. I could also see them plugging in like a car key too, and then running by thought if they need to be attuned

Not really, if you wanted the game to work well without needing magic items (which is a goal I thought they might ditch for 5e24 but thankfully didn’t) then adding some HP is the better way to go.

You could also have a stable natural dungeon ecology that only had to deal with pesky adventures once every generation or so. They l idea that there are hundreds or even thousands of adventurers running around raiding dungeons is a very foreign concept in the D&D games I’ve played

Make the most of what?
