[QUOTE="Alzrius, post: 4103587, member: 8461"] For discussions I agree, but - and I feel a bit uncomfortable saying this - for editing a book I don't think that debating the points is necessarily the best way. At some point, there needs to be one voice that's the sole arbiter of what's what. Of course, here that's U_K, since it is his book, but again, I'm the guy listed as being the book's editor. So when it's released, if something there seems to not jive with the rest of the d20 RAW, people wonder why I wasn't doing my job. Again, if this were a debate, I'd probably say that's fine. I don't think that's best for the book, however. The XPH - which they'll already have with them if they're using the psionics rules - already outlines those rules far better and more completely than a sidebar here would. I'll concede the point regarding the lack of a Heighten Power feat, but that said, I still think it'd be too difficult to accurately relay that regarding power points, and augmenting, but not power points spent on metapsionic feats, etc. It's imperfect, but I'd rather err on the simpler side. I can live with that. I still think the best thing for that domain is giving them Use Psionic Device (and maybe one or two other psionic feats) as class skills also. Letting them use psionic items, as you suggested, might also help. That seems to be the only monster with psionic immunity. Having a divine power that lets them breach the immunities of just one creature is ridiculous. It's a minor change, U_K, but it helps to keep closer in terms of presentation to existing psionic material. It's one of those minor changes that I think helps make the presentation better. Again, it wouldn't be a power per se, but more of a note saying that anyone who takes the portfolio has those changes made. [/QUOTE]
