[QUOTE="Thanee, post: 1555371, member: 478"] If you think +20 dispels at 10th level are not nuts... then sure! Yeah, one could limit it by reading it a bit beyond what is written there, but even than it's still too powerful (not as bad as otherwise, of course). Yeah. Well, there's the focus thing with Quicken Power, of course, but Schism has no such limits. And saying the -6 levels are a major limitation is pretty weird, since it is just the same as a Quickened Power that way. My complaint is, that it allows spontaneous quicken, which it does and which no class should be able to do in 3.5. Not in my opinion. It's not even close to what a 2nd level power should be (just from the wrong side). It's actually better than most higher levels kineticist powers as well (not even comparing with similar spells). That really can't be right. The DC must be an error, anyways, but even with a standard DC, this power is far too good for its level. Yes, but it's there and ignoring it creates an imbalance, unless you house rule the other stuff, so it matches, which is fine as well, of course. Just pointing out, that it is not on par with the 3.5 ruleset, which it simply isn't. Same as above. Well, it's better than Spell Focus (no school, thus 8 feats in one), but you need the focus, which is bad, so you can't do two at once (unless you use those two feats with the psicrystal). Psionic Meditation is definitely a must-have feat for every psion, it somewhat betters the whole focus thing. It's very easy to say, really. About twice as much as written. Why do mages suddenly get more gold than psions? ;) And AFAIK psions have an 'equivalent' of the pearl of power also. Bye Thanee [/QUOTE]
