[QUOTE="Nathan, post: 94026, member: 1342"] In one campain I am playing a 9th-level Telepath/1st-level Paladin. In combat against non-humanoids (where a lot of mind-effecting powers don't work) Mind Blast is often the attack ability the character has. Limiting this attack mode would severely hurt the character. Furthermore, against some groups of enemies (e.g. undead), this power is worthless. Therefore, I would also propose to limit the accessibility to this attack mode instead of limiting the power itself IF someone wants to make some house rules on this power. A lot of you have said that the problems with Mind Blast occur at the lower levels. However, a 3rd-level psion can only Mind-Blast once a day. This should be strong limitation, i.e. there should be far more encounters a day. And the wizard's sleep spell, for example, is also very effective at these low levels, but can be cast more than once a day. [/QUOTE]
