[QUOTE="Styracosaurus, post: 97994, member: 1977"] Okay. I was hoping that I had missed something. Does it seem a bit heavy-handed on the healing? Here is what could happen: A psychic warrior takes a single level of Psion just to take 'Lesser Body Adjustment.' One power point is very cheap for a psion or psychic warrior. If one point = 4.5 hit points on avg, then you've got a real beast of a melee machine. At 10th level (PsyWar 9/ Psion1) my example character has at least 35 power points. That means that he has somewhere in the neighborhood of 155 extra hit points per day! The only drawback is that the character can't heal very quickly because he can only heal 1d8 per round. On one hand this is a weakness, but on the other it is also a huge advantage. Example: Compare this to an 11th level cleric, who can just now cast 'Heal.' The cleric can heal all your damage, but only once or twice. Most characters will not lose more than 100 hit points at a time before they recieve healing. This means that the cleric is very inefficient and wastes alot of his spell casting potential when compared to my example Psychic dude. Is this unbalancing? [/QUOTE]
