That is why it is apparently ok to give one class 2 feats that are preselected and another 1 feat that they get to choose from a large list.So, the first is close it is definately a 'better' for the psychic warrior.The second is a choice between 3 any feats and 2 from two lists (fighter or psionic) the second is 2 any, 1 from two lists (fighter or psionic) and 2 from the smallest list (psionic only). This cuts into what feat chains you can get and when. Definately a 'better' for the guy with the much larger selection and variety of choices.If you had a class who was given a feat and got to select between 5 feats and a class who was given a feat but only had 2 choices, who would you rate as 'better'? They have the same number sure, but the first is much better in terms of choices. While I can see how they could be called a wash I dont agree. More choices for amounts to more variety and more potential. They are close, but definately deserving of a 'better'. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />Also, I pretty much called the +1damage/-1 to hit a wash, although personally I feel it is a big penalty for the guy who has to make this trade. I'd much rather have the +1 to hit back for that point of damage gone. I think that this one is much closer than the skill points and feats though.Still, in the end, do you feel that each of the builds is roughly equivalent? better in some areas, worse in others, but I dont think dangerously so for any of them.</blockquote>
