[QUOTE="johnnype, post: 4840553, member: 1944"] I'm still very new to 4E so pardon my dumb questions and stupid comments. Where exactly did WotC state that the psion is coming next month? Dragon magazine I assume? Is it as part of a article as a playtest version or is it in a published supplement (PHB3)? I'm a long time fan of psionics. Never quite understood people's problem with the class or system [I]as far as flavor is concerned [/I](the first time I ever heard of psionics was in my 1st edition PHB so to me it's always been a part of the game and as appropriate as any D&D trope). I've also never understood peoples inclination to immediately think Monks = psionics (In my mind one is a martial artist the other is not). All of which is neither here nor there; I'm just stating my biases. I'm not all that familiar with with the 4E categories so I don't know how they would fit in the leader/striker etc roles but I'd like to see the Psion, Psychic Warrior and Psychic Rogue (from an old WotC website article) make the classes. No idea who could fill the leader role although one could make a case for the Psychic Warrior making a good candidate instead of defender. The soulknife is the class that never did anything for me at all. He creates his own weapon. Wooptie do. Definitely an addon at best for the psywar IMO. Can't wait to see it. [/QUOTE]
