Reply with quote

Question for all you older Psions out there and anyone else for that matter. Currently I'm just a young one in love with his profession, but have a few questions. Other then psionic invoking itself, are there any additional abilities/perks a psion holds?

With lack of a better way, ill give examples of what I mean:

Mages: Bonus to Potions, Scribing
Performers: Dirge, Performing for Money, Lure..few others.
Trackers: Bonus to working with crafting

These are just examples and not meant as pointing and saying "GIMMEH!" I am of the firm belief that complaining about what others has is very bad for the game as a whole and only use those examples to be clear what I'm asking about.

This goes hand in hand with my second question of, is there anything reasonably psion related to allow for learning outside of hunting. As of current, I spend most of my time out of combat foraging for exp, and would love to find something related to my profession to do in its place.

Anything thoughts and suggestions would be warmly welcomed. I have read up on the planned additions that are known for Psionics and while I love each of them, none really appear to be a learning or ongoing device or system. Am I missing anything?

Note before you reply, I love Psionics, and want to be clear, that even if the answer is no, there is nothing and never will be, I'll still be a blissful invoker.

Thanks in advance,

Yan

P.S. Yes, this post was moved from the magic and psionic board.

Didn't forget them, Just didn't want to start any class envy wars. People on these forums bitch too much as it is about other things people have and/or request. I think its great how well performers have been developed and would love to see some of those types of perks for my beloved psionic.

Funny you mention this! I have previously announced that there will be objects Psionics can create for use in homes which will give bonuses to the people who live in those homes. There's another feature I'm also going to add soon, but I'm keeping it secret for now!

I'm very interested in fetishes as well as in shrines. I do hope there will be learning potential (ongoing, non-combat related) with these, or perhaps with whatever the secret item is! Thanks for the update, and not calling me names like that mean Elvis impersonator! Razz

Just a follow up to my question. If I gather the answers correctly, currently there is no system outside of psionic casting that a Psion can use thats specifically related to his profession, and currently has no profession based learning ability outside of combat(other then spamming rising mists and such).

There are however, 2 systems under development, one being fetishes for homes the other being secret. I'll repeat my question in that, will either of these have long term learning potential and will either be a system a Psionist would use more then once?

I do love hunting, but sometimes I would love to just scribe some Psionic pages, or some other psion related skill to learn instaid (my foraging fingers are killing me!).

Also noticed our profession based bonuses:

Quote:
Bonuses: Increased psionic points; Increased psionic ability effectiveness; Increased ability to identify or use occult artifacts.


So we can learn more skills, use them better. Beyond that, we can cast Object reading better? Pretty sure thats not implented, or atleast doesnt have any practical use as of now. Would love to see some bonuses be in the mix in the future to systems simular to some of the other classes. Mages for instance have the great potion bonus.

To paraphase myself, Would love to see an ability worth using outside of combat that related to my profession to learn, would love some abilities related to my profession outside of invocations, and would love to see some bonuses to anything in the above.

Thanks!!

Yan

it also says greater ability to use occult artifacts.

it would be cool if items that boost things boost things a bit more for a psionic, maybe, since they're able to properly channel the mumbo jumbo blah blah

It would be cool if there were magic items like wands\orbs\figurines etc. that do things. They would have charges, mages can recharge them and psionics use them with the greatest ease\benefit.

i can see wands and orbs being the realm of mages (moreso wands than orbs, though), but figurines/statues/fetishes would totally be all psionic in my mind.

I can agree with that. Ofcourse some sort of crafting system would be nice as mundane use of the item is not likely to be a teaching event however creating said item certainly has the potential.
