Im alredy well aware of the lack of CL and im aware of the Jean Grey Build. Would this be a Viable build to play just for pure fun and enjoyment if someone was to play this?. Radicial Tao helped me out with this build, thanks.

This build would beable to do alot of things without using claws or anything and your able to move things with your mind, quite literally. So would this be good or bad to play with?.

01-26-07, 04:49 AM Could Ardent be a good substitute for Psion? It might net you better powers with practiced manifester.

01-28-07, 04:00 AM Technically, does the psionic telekinesis even qualify for MotUH?

I think I'd be forced to smack any DM who allowed Psionics and refused to adapt that PrC for them.

01-28-07, 10:30 PM MotUH only says that you need to know Telekinesis, it doesnt say anything about being a specific lvl. A 5th lvl psion gets Telekinesis thrust I believe, so that I would think right there would qualify. It says need a Concentration of 8 and able to use Telekinesis. Doesnt say how to qualify for it :) and Psion 5 does qualify :).

01-29-07, 03:15 PM Well that's kind of the tricky point. In psionics, you have Telekinetic Force and Telekinetic Thrust, but you don't have Telekinesis.

01-29-07, 03:21 PM Which, of course, while being correct, is extremely silly. I made the mistake of trying to create a Psion Uncarnate/Master of the Unseen Hand because the Uncarnate gets at-will telekinesis at level 10...not. It gets the "move objects only" version. Why WotC broke them into pieces, I have zero idea, as telekinesis itself is about as close to classic psychokineticism as you can get.
