[QUOTE="wildstarsreach, post: 2993587, member: 43141"] We have 3 DM's in our group. The DM for the current campaign has let psionics in but is expressing that there are problems because of the character's self-reliance. He can't stop the character like a wizard due to no verbal, somantic or material components. Being able to sling disintegrates one round after another if I so choose to do with the character. Having the ability to tailor every his damage potential around most creatures weakness. Add to this that with the energy adaptation 4th I can protect myself versus most of the damaging spells. In addition, if a fighter or monster get through to my character, Temporal acceleration pulls his fat out of the fryer. Plus in non-combat my character can hide his manifestations for the info gathering. The other 2 DM's for the future campaigns have banned psionics only based on my play when they run. Not totally influenced from the past. The DM's have 15 to 25 years each of play. Upto 3-5 encounters between rest periods. With having a Cerebramancer, the Wizard/Psion combo gives my character more gas to a constantly sustain being effective character in almost every situation. At 18th level I plan to take the unconditinal feat to make up for the few times when the DM has had us by the balls and my character has gone down. Getting blasphemied before we can act sucks.
