[QUOTE="zaratan, post: 7103527, member: 6810501"] When I said I think soul knife is underpowered, is compared to other orders, not other classes. And yes, to me, they are lackluster since mystic great point is versatility and soul knife is the less versatile. Still, they are better than immortal. Ripose can give exactly an extra attack with extra damage dice, something that you wouldn't use thay round. With polearm master and sentinel you can trigger a AoO 80% or rounds. You can't use off hand attack with BB, you need to use a attack action, so you can't use with melee canteips, soul knife lvl 14 feature, any increase weapon damage discipline (even with mastery of wood that is an action), parry, mystic recovery, nothing. And can't get a magic weapon or even hold anything in your hand, sorry, but I can't see this a real benefit that worth two less disciplines. And how mystic isn't AL legal, bokming blade is 100% valid choice. I said this before, I can see a fully functional soul knife with booming blade and/or green flame blade. Use your bonus action to parry or any other good effect. His off hand attack look like immortals features, they don't really add much. You don't need to agree, but to me, is a completly bad design and I doubt if soul knife be published, he'll stay how it is. [/QUOTE]
