Only useful if you encounter a lot of incorporeal creatures though.Imprint Stone can be handy. Basically a psionic scribe scrolls thing.Psicrystal Affinity is an interesting one. Basically a manifester gets the equivalent of a familiar. So if you want things like Alertness feat, etc.I tend to shy away from feats that expend the psionic focus, especially when they almost always apply to a single attack so you end up putting all of your eggs into one basket.Power Attack is great standard feat for a character with as high a Strength as yours does since it greatly increases the 1 shot kill capability and also applies to all attacks made until your next turn (including AoO).Also for a warrior type I’d go more with a soulknife instead of a psi warrior.  More combat style things and no powers to manifest. A pretty good way to introduce psionics without introducing them if that makes any sense. Even though the Exp Psi half-giant has favored class Psi warrior.As a side note, I really don’t like the Exp Psi version of the half-giant. The Exp Psi version really doesn’t capture the Athasian (i.e., Dark Sun) one very well at all, and that is where the race came from in the first place.  I’d use the Dark Sun rules from Athas.org instead. Here is the link and selected text for the race itself.<a href="http://athas.org/releases/ds3/" target="_blank">http://athas.org/releases/ds3/</a>Half-Giant Traits• +8 Strength, +4 Constitution, -2 Dexterity, -4 Intelligence, -4 Wisdom, -4 Charisma: Half-giants are renownedfor their great strength and dull wits.• Large: As Large creatures, half-giants receive a -1 size penalty to Armor Class, a -1 size penalty on attack rolls,and a -4 size penalty on Hide checks.

In addition, half-giants have an increasedreach of 10 feet in melee combat as described on page 132 of the Player’s Handbook.• Giant type: Half-giants are not subject to spells or effects that affect humanoids only, such as charm personor dominate person.• Half-giants have darkvision to a range of 60 feet.• Half-giant base land speed is 40 feet.• Natural Armor: Half-giants gain a +2 natural armor bonus to AC.• Axis Alignment: One aspect of the half-giant’s alignment must be fixed, and chosen during charactercreation. The other half must be chosen when they awake each morning. They are only bound to thatalignment until they sleep again. For example, a half-giant may have a fixed lawful alignment. Every morning,he must choose to be lawful good, lawful neutral or lawful evil. This alignment change is not mandatory.• Racial Hit Dice: Half-giants begin play with 2 Hit Dice, giving them 2d8 hit points, a +1 Base Attack Bonus,base saves Fort +3, Ref +0, Will +0, and one starting feat of choice.• Racial Skills: A half-giant’s giant-type levels give him skill points equal to 5x(2 + Int modifier).
