Psionic skills availability for other classes...?

[Solenius]

In the Expanded Psionics Handbook, I can't find whether the Autohypnosis, Psicraft and Use Psionic Device are available to other classes (Like Fighter, Rogue, and so on) as class or cross-class skills... That is weird since Rogue should obviously get the Use Psionic Device in his list...

Any official update or errata about this?

Thanks,

Well, as long as the "Psionics are Different" rule isn't used, I'm pretty sure Use Psionic Device and Use Magic Device should both work for all items.

As for the other skills, I'm pretty sure (without any checking) that they should be available to all classes as cross class skills (unless specifically stated otherwise), as exclusive skills no longer exist in the core rules.

While not official, I'd make UPD a class skill for rogues, and every other skill a CC skill for the other classes. Good question -- and welcome to the boards!

I would suggest going one better and making "use magic device" and "use psionic device" one skill, not two. Both involve using a weird item that you normally can't use, and I don't see why psionic stuff is more different from arcane and divine stuff than the latter are from each other, unless you are specifically using the "psionics are different" variant rule.

I would do the same with "psicraft" and "spellcraft".

I am not sure about knowledge (psionics) and knowledge (arcana) since there is a separate knowledge (religion) from knowledge (arcana).

Autohypnosis would be a cc skill for anyone for whom it is not listed as a class skill, but as a house rule I don't see why monks could not get it as a class skill.

I guess we will have to wait for clarification in the 5th class splat book "Complete Psionic"
