Metamagic to Metapsionic cost conversion?

[Ashrem Bayle]

I know I've seen it somewhere, but I can't remember where.

Where is the conversion? Wizards gave it out when they stated that metamagic feats could be used as metapsionic feats.

A metamagic feat that uses up a slot 7 levels higher converts to using how many power points when used by a psion?

Thanks

One spell slot = +2 power points.

That metapsionic feat would cost +14 points (darned expensive!). A 21st level Epic Psion could apply it, at most, to his or her 4th-level Powers (costing 7 base each, plus 14 for the metapsionic feat is 21 ... and remember, a Psion can spend no more than their class-level on a single Power, etc, etc).

Thanks!!

I'm building a 35th level Savant so I don't think the cost will be much of an issue.

I think doing damage will be your main problem, since psionic direct damage powers don't scale... unless you use ITCK.

35th level Psion? I strongly suggest picking up one or more Elemental Substitutions (converted from metamagicks to metapsionics, of course). Greatly increases versatility.
