[QUOTE="EternalSword, post: 3396751, member: 42964"] I didn't actually realize the touch spell thing was still on psicrystals, and psicrystals are useless without any means of moving themselves. The +1 bonus is with that specifiic weapon only, not others of the same type, and I thought would roughly compensate for the loss of it's ability to move or be useful for recon or delivery. The cognizance crystal feat actually has the same requirements as making the item, and your trading a feat slot for an item that you could take the feat for and make at the same time, or earlier if a Psychic Warrior, as you could get the feat. The cognizance crystals are way overcosted, by the way. The rough equivilants for casters, rings of wizardry and pearls of power, are slightly more expensive but diisgustingly more powerful. A wizard could take Extra Slot and get at this point another third level slot that would eventually give him a maxed dispel magic or fireball or lightning bolt. This feat give a psion a +5 check dispel or 5d6 attack. And cognizance crystals have to be recharged. If I use those pp today, and I don't have any left at the end of the day to refill it with, I don't have them again tommorow. And no, you can't draw partly from the crystal and partly from yourself. To use a Console RPG analogy, it boost you maximum MP but you have to fill it from your current MP and then recharge. The reason the psiweapon feat doesn't require psicrystal affinity is that the idea was that it is an alternate form of psycrystal, and that the bonus is the replacement for psycrystals recon and delivery usage. If the judges would like, I'll remove the touch delivery ability and/or the bonus from this feat and add them to seperate feats. Incidently, the bonus is much worse than weapon focus since it applies to a single item and is suppressable by virtue of being a psionic feat. [/QUOTE]
