Message: <blockquote data-quote="Belphanior" data-source="post: 4081247" data-attributes="member: 12401">The Ardent and Divine Mind are already pretty leader-y. They work with auras and I can see that as the Big Thing that psi would utilize for its own schtick.So let's theorize.The psion (controller role) would have your basic will/encounter/day powers, except his encounter powers are all auras; they last for the entire duration and you can use only one aura per encounter (see also: channel divinity). The psion would have destructive powers.Psionic Aura: Unravel Thoughts Psion Attack 1Encounter * Psionic, PsychicSpecial: You may use only one Psionic Aura ability per encounter.Standard Action PersonalEffect: aura 5; enemies that enter or start their turns in the aura take {Int modifier} psychic damage.Ardents would have beneficial powers.Psionic Aura: Intellect Fortress Ardent Class FeatureEncounter * PsionicSpecial: You may use only one Psionic Aura ability per encounter.Standard Action PersonalEffect: aura 5; you and allies that enter or start their turns in the aura gain resist psychic 5 until the end of their next turn.Or something. Just thinking out loud here.EDIT: Soulknives seem very well suited for Followup attacks. First they stab you in the gut with their <s>Psylocke ripoff</s> manifestation of their will and then they bombarding your nervous system with overload, or erasing memories, or hijacking metabolic functions. I predict Crisis of Breath shall see a return as a soulknive Followup that essentially says:Wis vs Will, ongoing damage 5 (save ends).</blockquote>
