[QUOTE="Thaed, post: 4764213, member: 83383"] [b]Your ID is my plaything.[/b] First off, great work. It is obvious you have put a great amount of thought into this. I will look forward to the final draft. I plan on making it my official 4E Psion class. I'm old school so much of what I say is founded in that. Take what you want, leave the rest. 1) The AD&D psionics was founded with Int, Wis, Cha the three "Mind" abilities. I personally would rather swap Con out for Wis as a primary, simply for mind over body reasons. 2) Please modify your mindlink range to be more of a combat range. Check out the swordmage mark range or some of the others. This should be a burst area or something measured in squares not miles. The mindlink should not cover the entire battlefield. 3) The 5 classic attack powers are: Using the original point cost for the power as a suggested level "neighborhood". Psionic Blast - Should be a blast not a burst. (See name.) Should not be a paragon power but available to all psions. Suggest 20th level as it was the highest cost attack power. "wave of brain force, in effect much like "stunning news" to the mind. (G. Gygax) Mind Thrust - 4th level. (Though I like the idea of it as a at-will power.) "a stabbing attack that seeks to short the synapses of the defender" (G. Gygax) Personally Range 20 feels to long. Ego Whip - 7th level "attacks the ego, either by feelings of inferiority and wothlessness or by superiority and megalomania." (G. Gygax) Id Insinuation - originally this was an area attack. Please modify it this way. "seeks to loose the uncontrolled subconscious mind of the defender, pitting it against the super-ego" (G. Gygax) 10th level Psychic Crush - Did I miss this??? 14th level or higher. " massive assault upon all neurons in the brain, attempting to destroy all by a massive overload of signals." (G. Gygax) This should be the big dog on the block. Single target. Possibly save or be unconscious. 4) In general I prefer more mental effects for the saves. Dazed, dominated, stunned, unconscious 5) Defenses 5 primary: Mind Blank - 1st level psion only Thought Shield - 2nd psion only Mental Barrier - 3rd psion only Intellect Fortress - 8th zone Tower of Iron Will - 10th zone We interrupt this posting for a ringing phone. More later, whether you want it or not. ;) [/QUOTE]
