I've semi-redone the Soulknife feature ability: Mindblade. I also have two prestige classes in the rough-draft stage. The Soularmor and the Soulbow. I don't have CPsi, so I made my own Soulbow. Ok, here's the new rough-draft mindblade:



Damage wield possible crit value
1d6 light 19-20
1d8 1-handed 19-20 or x3
2d6 2-handed x3


You may also choose crit 19-20/x2 or 20/x3 and whether it deals bludgeoning, slashing, or piercing damage. Before you get shape mind blade, your limited to a light weapon and slashing or piercing damage. You may choose any eligible ability to enhance your mindblade. A.K.A virtually unlimited list for Mindblade enhancements. New feats in next post

One feat jus to make your weopon addy or +1 seems a little overpowered.

It's only to count towards weapon special abilities. There's another feat that does a similar thing in dragon mag. How about I make it cost +1 of special abilities? Plus it's only for the mindblade.

You might consider giving Soulknives the option of Light 1d4/1H 1d6/2H 2d4 with a crit of 18-20/x2 or 20/x4.

There's already a Soulbow PrC, and it's widely considered to be one of the few decent things to come out of CPsi.

What's the BAB on the Soularmor?

I just noticed the Soulbow Prc is an excerpt of CPsi. mine is just a variant. Average BaB on Soularmor.

Ah, I just noticed the reload times.

The medium reload time should probably be a move action rather than a standard action. Otherwise, there's little advantage to using it over using the full-round reload. Although, with most of the Soulbow builds I've seen, anything other than the free reload is pointless.
