[QUOTE="GuardianLurker, post: 2824816, member: 786"] (This is cross-linked from my blog; see my sig.) Focused Mind Weapon and Weapons of the Mind are more general (and more powerful) versions of the "Exotic Weapon Blade Shape" feats that were sprinkled in Complete Psion, and which I regard as awkward and underpowered. Also, AE doesn't award proficiency in *single* exotic weapons, but in classes or weapons, and the new approach works (quite coincidentally) better with that approach. Powerful Totem Shape is an adapted "Powerful Wild Shape" for the totem warrior, and this Stone Form is a version of the normal druid-based Stone Form for the Totem Warrior. Familiar Capacitor is based off Creature Capacitor from Hyperconscious. Familiar Capacitor Category : Psionic Prerequisites : Psicrystal Containment, Creature Capacitor Benefit : You can store additional power points (up to one per manifester level) in your familiar's body that you can later use to pay for manifesting your powers. These power points remain until used, and can only be replenished by depleting your own power point reserve on a 1-for-1 basis. You cannot use these stored power points to replenish your own, nor can you draw power points from more than one source when manifesting a power. Normal : No benefit. Focused Mind Weapon Category : Psionic Prerequisites : Ability to generate a Mind Blade, Shape Mind Blade class ability, Weapon Focus (any melee) Benefit : Any time you wish to reshape your mind blade using your shape mind blade class feature, you can add the shapes of any melee weapons you have chosen the Weapon Focus feat for to your shape repertoire. The weapon is sized appropriately for you, and deals damage accordingly. If you choose Weapon Focus for an additional melee weapon, your shape repertoire expands to include it. If your mind blade could normally be split in two, you can chose any two light weapons in your shape repertoire. Normal : No benefit. Powerful Totem Shape Category : General Prerequisites : Totem Shape class ability, powerful build racial trait Benefit : When you assume the shape of your totem, you retain the benefits of your powerful build racial ability and are considered one size category larger than normal for many effects (see the goliath racial trait for more details). While using Powerful Totem Shape, you deal damage with your natural attacks as if you were one size category larger. Normal : No benefit. Stone Form Category : General Prerequisites : Con 13, Totem Shape class ability Benefit : The fur, feathers, scales and skin of your totem shape change to rock. In this form, your totem shape gains a +4 bonus on Fortitude saves versus poison, and a +4 enhancement bonus to your totem shape's natural armor. This benefit last for a number of rounds equal to 3 + your Constitution bonus. Normal : No benefit. Weapons of the Mind Category : Psionic Prerequisites : Proficient Mind Weapon Benefit : As with Focused Mind Weapon, but your shape repertoire expands to include all melee weapons you are proficient with. If you gain proficiency with an additional melee wepaon, your shape repertoire expands to match. Normal : No benefit. Comments, suggestions? [/QUOTE]
