psychic warrior - the killing machine

[Solana]

i would like all you out ther ewith the psionic handbook out there to please make a psychic warrior of total levels of 14 using what ever race/class you want to the total of 14 levels the stats you get to start with are as follows

18,17,14,14,13,11

they can go where ever you wish this character will be in a group with very little healing and where there are also very few wariors who are willing to go toe to toe with the big guys

but instead of a AC monster which in my mind is far to easy i want you to instead think away around the massive AC or massive hp mode and instead make it possible for this guy to endure hell and come back with a smile on his face

have fun ive started mine already

Manifest Graft Weapon on spiked guantlets. Duration permanent.

Right before combat, manifest: Vigor (1 PP. 14 minutes), Inertial Barrier, Extended (9 PP- 280 minutes). Extended Cotv (7 pp, 28 hours), Extended Improved Biofeedback (7 PP, 24 hours) and Persistent Expansion (11 PP, 24 hours), Extended Animal Affinity: Str (7 PP, 28 hours, 2-5 STR, assumed below average of +3). All other powers are just supplementary. 42 PP spent. STR goes to 28.

Attack bonus = +10/+5 base, +1 graft weapon, +5 enhancement, +1 weapon focus, +9 Str = +26/+21
Damage = 1d8+1 graft weapon, +5 enhancement, +2 weapon specialization, +9 Str, +2 impact = 1d8+19

Defenses: Inertial Barrier grants 140 points of DR 10/+5, plus some minor benefits against gas attacks. If it's dispelled, Immoveablity is almost as good and last a whole lot longer, but denies all movement.

The first 18 points of damage go to the temporary hit points from Vigor.
Improved Biofeedback will convert the first 18 points per hit into subdual damage.

Each strike from the CotV will heal 1d8 (or more, depending on interpretation) to both subdual and actual damage.

The minor cloak of concealment will negate sneak attacks and cause a 20% miss chance.

Against ranged foes, use Call Weaponry and carry a quiver of normal arrows that Greater Magic Weapon can used on.

Suggestions: Use an encoded stone for the graft weapon, or a dorje. The 4th level slot can be swapped for Polymorph Self, and take a combat form like a hill giant to boost STR even more. Take the TWF feat chain to get additional attacks in lieu of Psionic Charge and Speed of Thought.

The 6th level power could be Ethereal Jaunt, for emergency escapes, or Ablating, but it's a very expensive cost-to-effect ratio.

Save cash and invest in the +2 Suppressing effect for the guantlets to automatically cast a negate psionics on anyone you attack, or get body feeder.

Jeesh I don't use the psionics books, but that character seems pretty unbalanced. Why would you ever want any other if your going to be a tank type?

 

[Urbanmech]

Psychic Warriors are tough, but throw a few dispel magics or negate psionics at them and they loose most of their potency.

Solana what sources are allowed for making this character? Are we allowed the use of Minds Eye or the Bruce Cordel books?

 

[Spatula]

It's not really legal, anyway. Claws of the Vampire causes your fingernails to grow 2 inches, giving you a claw attack that drains life from your opponent. Tough to use when your hand is covered in a spiked gauntlet. And even if you handwave that away, the +5 enhancement bonus from the gauntlet wouldn't apply to the claw attack granted by the power.

Actually, I think this is allowed because he's using the Graft Weapon power on of his guantlets to graft them to his hands. It's the Graft Weapon that gives you the weapon's +5 enhancement bonus to your unarmed attack. That's my understanding of it.

Thank You

Thank you for all th ereplies so far, and for the question on books that can be used any book that is allowed in the forgotten realms setting

I will give you this one that dwarf is dam hard and with a decent ac and decent damage i think it could go toe to toe with the big guys

thank you once again

 

[Naar]

I'll post the psychic warrior I used in a one-shot later, once I have my books. Took a lickin' and kept on tickin', as they say.

 

[Urbanmech]

In the example above why bother with Metaphysical Weapon when you can take Displacement? Psionic Displacement also has a range of personal so you can make it Persistant. Nothing like 50% miss chance from almost anything and no crits on your character.

+3 wrathful healing Huge spiked chain
+5 full plate mail
+5 cloak of resistance
Dusty rose prism ioun stone
Pale green prism ioun stone
Slippers of spider climbing

Notes: The +(1d4+1) in the abilities is to represent the effect of Triggered animal affinities. Initially, you have +10 on a DC 15 check; boosting your Str first will make the other checks easier.

Since improved biofeedback lasts for 12 hours, you should be able to keep it running all day. Thus, every time you're injured, you will take at least 20 hp as subdual damage. Every time you land a blow (and you can use Deep Impact if you really need to land a hit), you heal half the damage done. When you heal regular damage via a spell or power, you heal an equal amount of subdual damage, thus effectively doubling the usefulness of the healing for you. If you really need a lot of healing right now, you can use psychofeedback to hike up the amount of damage you do. The fast healing will also help keep you topped up. Displacement and inertial barrier increase your survivability some more.

With 20ft. reach from the Huge Spiked Chain (+5ft. from reach if you feel so inclined), you can control the battlefield easily, using Combat Reflexes and Stand Still to stop people from closing. Plus, using skate and burst, you can move at a speed of 55ft. if you need to run away.
