First thing is that They get Concealing Amorpha, Greater (Aren't they supposed to get just Concealing Amorpha?), their +4 to Dex, and their Final point in Natural Armor at level 6.. (The fact that they had Concealing Amorpha, surprised me till I checked the reason, that Psionic Displacement was replaced with it.. so I'm ok with it) and their +4 to Dex, and their Final point in Natural Armor The second thing, is that the class seems to Assume that Thri-kreen are a 2HD + 4 LA Race... When in Expanded Psionic Handbook they are a 2HD and +2 LA Race. Is that a Misprint or something? Or did they change Psionic Thri-kreen to have a +4 LA with 2 Racial HD?
Morwen 04-23-07, 05:08 PM	For some reason, the racial classes in Complete Psionic incorporate class levels in addition to racial HD and LA. If you look at the Thri-Kreen progression again, you'll see that at 6th level they have 2 class levels (gained at 3rd and 5th level) in addition to their 2 racial hit dice (gained at 1st and 2nd level). I have no idea why they chose to change racial classes that way.

Although I don't understand why they get the Greater version of the Power when the XPH Errata changed Psionic Displacement to the normal version. lol Monkeys and imaginary friends.
Ralp 04-23-07, 06:30 PM	Although I don't understand why they get the Greater version of the Power when the XPH Errata changed Psionic Displacement to the normal version. It's correct. The Thri-kreen's errataed psi-likes are: 3/day—chameleon, know direction and location; 1/day—greater concealing amorpha, metaphysical claw Elsewhere in Complete Psionic, however, I think they have a feat to increase the Thri-kreen's uses per day of psionic displacement. :rolleyes:
Morwen 04-23-07, 07:16 PM	Elsewhere in Complete Psionic, however, I think they have a feat to increase the Thri-kreen's uses per day of psionic displacement. :rolleyes: There's also a feat that gives Thri-Kreens +1 natural armor.. As if Improved Natural Armor didn't do the job already ;)
Kezarim 04-27-07, 10:06 PM	Well, i believe you cannot have more then one "Improved natural armor" feat. so if you WERE willing to pay 2 WHOLE feats for a +2 natural armor.... you might pick them both. and i you WERE allowed multiple picks of "imp. NA", then you might take "improved thri kreen carapace" because of species patriotism.
Morwen 04-28-07, 09:36 AM	Well, i believe you cannot have more then one "Improved natural armor" feat. You can take that feat any number of times :)
