[QUOTE="Zardnaar, post: 7053201, member: 6716779"] With the Psion now being renamed to the mystic I feel sorry for the actual Mystic class. What is the actual Mystic class? Its an AD&D 2E Priest from Faiths and Avatars (page 186). They can cast spells from the all, animal, charm, divination, healing, protection, summoning, and travellersa with minor access to the guardian, necromantic and plant spheres. They can't wear armor and have high charisma's and get to brew potions, ointments and use candle magic as well. Having the Psion steal its name is an insult to my memories of this class (that I never played), and to Gygax's AD&D legacy. This is actually worse than the Warlord debacle, at least you can have hope they will make one. What they have done with the Psion means my hopes of a 5E mystic are fore ever dashed!!!!. Crafting candles is iconic as a Warlord IMHO and is 12 years older. We need to let WotC know this is unacceptable and spend the next 3 years trolling the forums letting everyone know about this grave injustice. I am so outraged that my care factor has gone up from "not at all" to "marginally more than not at all". Its a complete and utter travesty!!!. There are 46 Cleric subclasses in that book along with 3 new classes (Crusader, Mystic, Shaman). So my appeal to you good forumites is support me in my Mystic crusade against WoTC corporate tyranny and save this iconic classes name being lumped in with Psionics. Save my Mystic!!!!!! [/QUOTE]
