SO WHAT!The Wizard wins out on utility, illusion, and battlefield control.The astral Construct may be a better tank than some of the options on the conjurer list, but again so what? The Summon Natures ally spell has better choices than summon monster.The Psion lacks powers in areas like illusion and battlefield control.Which means that the psion is better in some areas than a wizard or Sorc, and worse in others.Does that make it broken?NO. Complaining that a wilder can blast better the a sorc is like the druid complaining that the cleric heals better than him. You get other powers to make up for that!Everyone here seem to making the assumption that psionics must be perfectly even in power with the sorcerer, or psionics is broken.  If they were exactly the same, why play a psion, when you could play a spell-point sorcerer.Psionics will be better at some things than sorcerers.Psionicis will be worse at some thing than sorcerers.Psionics will be better at some things than favored souls.Psionicis will be worse at some thing than favored souls.Favored  souls will be better at some things than sorcerers.Favored  souls will be worse at some thing than sorcerers.Different does not equal broken. <a href="http://boards1.wizards.com/showthread.php?t=331253" target="_blank">Most of this has been covered before</a>Are there problimatic power in the XPH? YES!Are there problimatic spells in the PHB? YES!</blockquote>
