[QUOTE="Jefe Bergenstein, post: 6481393, member: 31506"] Because that means you cant have psionics until 4th level, then just get crappy ones. You get your next power at 8th level. Sorry, if it doesn't cut it for arcane magic, it doesn't cut it for psionics. Its fine to represent wild talents, but woefully inadequate for worlds where psionics are major parts of the cultures and fluff and which make the core focus of your character from level 1 onward. That's just adding more crap on the wizard, which gets too much versatility and toys as it stands. Not to mention it royally destroys the way the Dark Sun campaign is written, which is based around tangible differences between psionics and magic (ie, they do different things and more important, differently. Psionics is much more limited, magic is vast but destroys the world). You may as well make clerics "healing wizards", rogues "skill fighters", and do away with every class except fighter and wizard. If rangers, paladins and bards, which are just pre-fab multiclass combos, deserve their own class, psions deserve it much more. [/QUOTE]
