[QUOTE="wildstarsreach, post: 3007910, member: 43141"] I am a power gamer. I'm not unabashed about that. My style will take things to an extreme so that the rules will be tested. I don't attack you personally. You, on the other hand under the guise of sarcasm attack Thanee. Yes, I have a jaded opinion since I have played all the editions of psionics. I admit that the system currently used is the best that TSR/Wotc has put out. That doesn't mean that there aren't problems. This is what I'm talking about. You state that my opinion is invalid since I have not played a straight psion. I have a degree in Logic. Convince me of your argument, not your brow beating. I have moved my opinion away from the dice limits. Someone presented me with a valid line of reasoning. You state that just that the opinions of other gamers must be right and I must be wrong. Give me logical reasons and I'm receptive. Attack me and no amount of convincing with that will change my mind. In the last 6 months, during a typical session in which we have 2-4 encounters, my character typically uses maybe 4 spells. The Psion part is what is used for 95% of the combat. The last 2 sessions have been the endurance test. The Psion part is 3 levels less than the party. This part alone keeps up with the party. Practiced Manifester was not added until 15th level. You can apologize or not. Rude, sarcastic and blunt behavior will get nowhere with me. [/QUOTE]
