Psions in 3.0 SUCKED.  Hardcore.  In 3.5 they look like they would actually be fun and balanced.I'm sure that if you play a Psion and he sees how *not* overpowered they are, he'll be fine with the book as written.The changes he has proposed make the Psion 100% unplayable.  Removing augmentation of powers and reducing bonus power points are the two really big ones.  Making you take two days to get your power points back is also ridiculous.  What, it's ok for every other casting class to get them back in 24 hour but not the Psion?  Stupid.And yes, Sorcerers don't have to memorize spells.  That's the whole point of being a sorcerer.  How new is your DM to third edition?  If he's so new he doesn't know how Sorcerers work, what makes him think he knows enough to even determine that psions are unbalanced, let alone how to balance them?-The Souljourner</blockquote>
