[QUOTE="AbdulAlhazred, post: 5125818, member: 82106"] Ehhhh, see I think this logic may be a bit flawed. Action Economy is a big deal. Those low level powers may give you more bang per PP expended, but that doesn't mean they necessarily give you more bang per ACTION taken. You'll get your PPs back at the end of the encounter. An action lost is an action lost, it ain't never coming back. I've only seen one psion in action for a couple weeks worth of play at heroic tier so I really can't say I know how this issue plays out. The character I DMed for was using nothing but level 1 powers at level 8 still, but he certainly didn't seem OP, just constantly using the same 2 powers and now and then he'd whip out a daily. Interesting character but we'll definitely have to see how much fun it is in the long run. [/QUOTE]
