Psychic Warrior Powers?

Personally I would pick up Ectogoo, Reach, Psychokinetic Blast, Combat Prescience, Dim. Strike, Reach, Inert. Bar., Chrysalis (if you can use ITCK), Metaphysical Weapon (or Body if you use unarmed) line, the Vim line (scalable +HP are nice), and find the heart . Oh, don't forget Poly, Animal Affinity, and Displacement.

What is find the heart?

Find the Heart
Clairsentience
Level: Psychic Warrior 2, Truth Seeker 2
Display: Vi, Ma
Manifestation Time: 1 action
Range: Personal
Target: One creature
Duration: 1 round/level
Saving Throw: None
Power Resistance: No
Power Points: 3

Find the heart gives its user an intuitive feel for striking a creature's anatomy. Using this insight allows the psychic warrior to make more precise, damaging strikes. This power grants the equivalent of +2d6 sneak attack damage. The extra damage is treated like the rogue's ability to sneak attack, except find the heart grants bonus damage only to melee attacks. Any time the psychic warrior makes a melee attack, she can add +2d6 points of bonus damage if the target would be denied a Dexterity bonus to AC or if the target is flanked.

The extra damage from find the heart applies only against creatures susceptible to a rogue's sneak attack damage; it does not work against undead, oozes, plants, and incorporeal creatures. Any creature that is immune to critical hits is also immune to the extra damage from find the heart. Multiclass psychic warriors who already have the sneak attack ability still gain the benefit of find the heart; the extra damage from this power stacks with regular sneak attack damage.
 





any ability with a duration of hours (ie. claws of the bear and claws of the vampire) add in the extend power feat (+2 pp and you get double duration [40 hours for claws]).

this gets really nasty when you add in graft weapon. With a long sword, a Str 16, weapon specialization, you get:

1d8 sword
1d12 bear
1d8 vampire
+3 strength
+1 special

This works out to an average of 19 damage (+BAB) and 1d8 of that is absorbed (vampire).

Very nasty when you see that this will go for twice your level in HOURS with extend power on bear and vampire. Add in a magic weapon and you will quickly get the nickname "Tank" if you have a decient AC.

That's not hard either. Combat precognicience gives +2, and you throw in the Dex bonus, Inertial Armour Feat, and a other goodies and you're off to the races.

Surely claws of the bear do not stack with a grafted weapon? I think I saw a note about this on the wizards psionics board - PS Head can you help??
 

I don't think you need any kind note to see that a claw does not stack with either a grafted weapon or another claw power. Just like holding two swords in one hand does not double damage (I bet that's not stated in any rulebook either), it's just too silly. :rolleyes:

But the 0-level Talons power explicitly does stack.
 

CotV "stakcs" but not CotB. It both creates and enhances an existing attack. And the author said so as well ;)

It probably shouldn't really stack, but until Vigor got expanded and upgraded and Metaphysical Body was created (see the Mind's Eye) Graft Weapon/CotV was the egoist's only hope.

You can also use Bracers of Striking (Magic of Faerun) for those sweet elemental bonuses; there will be more psionic weapon properties in a few months, and I see no reason why you couldn't make Crystal Bracers of Striking.
