Message: <blockquote data-quote="(Psi)SeveredHead" data-source="post: 5637962" data-attributes="member: 1165">I've DMed for a psionic PC. (I use lots of psionic NPCs, but they use monster rules.)Not really. You do have a little bit more flexibility, but I haven't seen it be that useful. My psion player has not particularly optimized his PC, making this more obscure/hard to measure.A lot of augments aren't all that good, but maybe that's a function of the powers he chose.There's at least one standout power, Dishearten. It's like the bard's Vicious Mockery, but flat-out better without any augmentation whatsoever. That's probably more of a power issue than a class issue though (eg one power is overpowered, and/or one is underpowered).I thought 2 PP was for a daily-equivalent. I'm not sure. He gets daily powers as well as full augments. He seems to run out of PP pretty fast though, but then other PCs run out of encounter powers pretty fast too.In a way, I'm actually disappointed. There isn't enough "range" of powers. Being a telepath is particularly disappointing; all kinds of cool powers are missing. IMO, there needs to be more powers that have nasty control effects but do no damage (or maybe just Charisma or Wisdom bonus for damage).I also think the psion class should have used Will rather than Int for most of its powers.</blockquote>
