[QUOTE="Azzy, post: 8094665, member: 6563"] The 3.5 psionics rules were, IMO, the best we've had (I didn't play 4e, so I can't speak to that—although I do have the 4e Psionic Power rulebook as it was given to me by a friend who wong it in a trivia contest). In one of the psionic wizard subclass UAs, part of my feedback is that even if they print the subclass that it's not a substitute for having a psion class. I also said that the 3.5 psion was likely the best model for a 5e subclass—complete with built-in subclasses with the different disciplines (you could even turn the wilder and possibly erudite into psion subclasses). The psionic powers in 3.5 were alread a direct analog to spells with 9 levels, magic transparency as the default, and such, so it wouldn't be amiss if they went with spell slots given that the spell point rules in the DMG would allow for point-based powers of 3.5 and earlier editions if one wanted them. I also asked them to bring back psicrystals (wich were cool af) and astral constructs. The psychic warrior and soulknife make sense as subclasses, but some of the psionic feats that played a big part of those classes should be brought back as class features. So I hope that what we get in Tasha's isn't the be-all-end-all of psionics in 5e and that they at least take my suggestion under consideration. [/QUOTE]
