Ability scores for psychic warrior?

[Ogre Mage]

I am planning a elven psywarrior archer type and am mulling over distributing ability scores. Obviously DEX and STR are the two most important. Where should I place my third highest statistic -- Constitution or Wisdom?

 

[Zappo]

Check to see if there are high-level powers that you'd like to take and that require Constitution or Wisdom.

Inertial Barrier?
Telekinesis?

or,

Shield of Prudence?
Ubiquitous Vision?

 

[omedon]

Powers attached to constitution are pretty combat oriented. Biocurrent, and Greater Biocurrent for instance.

So it depends if you want your warrior to handle multiple roles or be a fighting machine.

If the answer is fighting machine, go with Constitution.

 

[Willtell]

Can you relay on a cleric or wizard to cast greater magic weapon on your arrows?, if not Metaphysical Weapon would be very useful.

Are you a combat munchkin? Then Con...

If not I'd really go with Wis, Int, or Cha...

Agian with the Munchkining go with Wis as it will improve thy Will save...

 

[Zhure]

13+ WIS will gain access to the Speed of Thought/Psionic Charge/Up the Walls feat chains.

There's no non-munchkin stat for PsyWars. Even CHA helps with Use Psionic Device.

I don't consider the "Up the Wall" feat to be the be-all, end-all of munchkinny / powergamer Psywarrior feats. But dang if it isn't one of the coolest feats in any of official rulebooks....
