[QUOTE="Arkhandus, post: 3507425, member: 13966"] That analysis aside, this would be my suggested version.

Weapon and Armor Proficiency: As per the XPH version. Manifesting: Improves manifesting ability, power point reserve, etc. at each even-numbered level in the Soulknife prestige class, effects are identical to the psionic manifesting improvements of the Thrallherd prestige class.

Bonus Psionic Feat: Soulknives gain a bonus feat of their choice at 1st-level in this prestige class, but this must be a Psionic feat for which they meet the prerequisites. Throw Mind Blade: As per the XPH version. Free Draw: As per the XPH version. Shape Mind Blade: As per the XPH version.
