The characters are:Maenad WilderMaened Psychic WarriorXeph Soul KnifeElan Psion (Egoist)Elan Psion (Kineticist)The two Elans used resilience frequently, and it did manage to leave them standing once (at the cost of 2pp each time). It also saved the Kineticist from hitting -10 once (but didn't keep him standing). At least at 2nd level (the level the party is currently at) Resilience was not a major factor.The Wilder stayed standing longer than anyone because of his ability to Wild Surge for Vigor. Although everyone was using Vigor, the Wilder's gave him one extra hit for one pp, wheras the Elans were spending 2pp to stop almost as much damage.As they gain levels I'll continue to update this to see how much more effective the abilities become, especially in comparison to the Wilder's use of Vigor (which next level will be 3pp for 25hp instead of an Elan's 8pp for 25hp.I should note that there were a few chances to use the save boost, but it was never used (none of them were in combat, nor were they saves that the players knew in character were being made). Thus I've got no experience with that to relate yet. Next session should have some more data.I kept track of the ACs that were hit, and one of the 4 times that resilience was used, a +2 racial bonus to dexterity would have negated the entire attack. One other time a halfling's +2 to AC would have negated the entire attack.</blockquote>
