    D&D (2024) UA2025 Psion Spell List [+]

    Even though a lot of people had problems with crystals and ectoplasm in 3.5e, it did at least have it's own unique flavour for the Psion. So I think there should be a spell where a Psion throws a crystal around, and it can even be an exploding crystal and do Force or Piercing damage. For...

    D&D (2024) UA2025 Psion Spell List [+]

    For cantrips I wouldn't mind if they got Primal Savagery a Druid cantrip that seems to be something at least a Metamorph should get. I don't think any blade cantrips fits the Psion spell list, though it might be suitable for some subclass. I would have thought Elementalism would be more...

    D&D Debuts Playtest for Psion Class

    I think red with comments allows them to filter out the non-constructive criticisms, as I feel this time they have certain things in mind they aren't changing course on.

    So Dhalsim as a D&D character, Metamorph Psion and some method of getting fire spells like with the Pyrokinesis feat...

    New D&D Video Game Announced

    So that's like after the Muad'dib takes over the planet Arrakis and becomes the Emperor.

    D&D General Psionic species and subspecies, will they make a comeback too?

    There's precedence for Greys as a PC species, they did have D&D PC stats for the Fraal in 2e in something like a Dragon Magazine article to coincide with the release of Alternity. So the Fraal could be written as a PC species in 5e. Other species from Alternity could be brought over too.

    D&D (2024) What Should a Psion Be Able To Do?

    The idea of Psionic disciplines from previous editions of D&D came from the idea of Siddhis and what Yogis were said to be capable of: Aṇimā: the ability to reduce one's body to the size of an atom. Mahimā: the ability to expand one's body to an infinitely large size. Laghimā: the ability to...

    D&D General Psionic species and subspecies, will they make a comeback too?

    On to the subject of Blue as just Goblins who happen to have Psionic powers, any ideas on why there would be a side effect on Goblins having their skin turn blue? Would this have something to do with their Fey origins? Does this condition affect Hobgoblins and Bugbears, or is it like Nilbogism...

    D&D General Psionic species and subspecies, will they make a comeback too?

    Anyways here's some of the existing Psionic species from before that I can remember: Githyanki: featured in Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes Githzerai: featured in Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes Elan: from 3.5e and a Paragon Path or something in 4e, Humanoids that became Aberrations and replaced their...

    D&D Debuts Playtest for Psion Class

    And for PHB spells that could be Psion spells I think they should have Yolande's Regal Presence and Thunderclap (as Stomp was a Psionic power), even though the Thunderclap is not a cantrip I'd recommend for anyone but a Valor Bard or Eldritch Knight.

    D&D Debuts Playtest for Psion Class

    There's a few spells from Xanathar's Guide to Everything that I feel they should have brought over beyond Psychic Scream. They definitely should have brought over Mental Prison, and probably Scatter, Skill Empowerment, Primal Savagery and Far Step.

    D&D Debuts Playtest for Psion Class

    Also thinking back to other Psionic classes, what about the Wilder? It was sort of the Psionic Sorcerer back in 3.5e, but the Sorcerer in general tends to do some of the things the Wilder does, but the Aberrant Mind Sorcerer is not exactly the same thing as a Wilder. Could Wilder be a subclass...

    D&D Debuts Playtest for Psion Class

    It was probably more of a necessity back in 2e when no other class got access to the type of healing (well mainly Raise Dead and Resurrection) Clerics got.

    D&D Debuts Playtest for Psion Class

    The Knowledge Domain Cleric presented in that Realms UA is sort of the Psionic Cleric subclass. I definitely think the Ardent class of 3.5e and 4e, should be the College of Ardor subclass of the Bard.

    D&D Debuts Playtest for Psion Class

    It was Psychometabolism=Con and Metacreativity=Int, but I think there's potential in having the Shaper as a "Pet" subclass of Psion (though I'm aware the power budget of pets and full casters tend to be limited). Maybe it can take a bit of the Thrallherd prestige class too, except with having a...

    D&D (2024) Chance for a warlord?

    If they aren't going with a Warlord subclass of Fighter, than they have to open up a Warlord base class to a lot of things, including subclasses that dabble in magic. Like 2 non-magical subclasses and 2 subclasses that are more magical.

    D&D Debuts Playtest for Psion Class

    Any thoughts how they could implement the Seer or Shaper subclasses? The Seer suffers from being traditionally rather close to the Diviner Wizard, but many of the interesting 3.5e Clairsentience powers were often shared with the Psychic Warrior. I guess they could try pushing the Seer more...

    D&D General Psionic species and subspecies, will they make a comeback too?

    I also think they should actually try making Flumphs as a PC species option as they're also sort of Psionic themed, I certainly have my own ideas on how I'd implement them. But I actually want to see WotC try it, just so I can see if they'll commission art for a Flumph Paladin in Plate Armor, I...

    D&D Debuts Playtest for Psion Class

    I think they removed references to the Weave in the 2024 core books, I don't even recall them mentioning Human ethnic groups of the Forgotten Realms that were mentioned in the 2014 PHB.
