Dec 21, 2003 3:47:04 I am just wondering how the undead deal with the Con-based psion/psiwarrior powers with their 0 Constitution...

any thought?

Dec 22, 2003 12:36:02 The PsiHb mention something like: 'psionics is associated with well-being and health'. It needs a balanced, harmoniously working mind and body to work. So it's a bit strange to have undeads with psionic powers. For them spell-like powers can be OK, but psionic is bit weird.

Just my ramblings, tough, but comments welcome.

I made psychometabolic be used by Con and psychokinetic based on Str. So now you don't have to change psychokinetic to Cha since it's Str and don't have to worry about the special rule with undead and psychometabolic since they have no Con anyways.

No idea why WotC feels the need to be backwards and difficult about things like this that can be fixed so simply.

Still use it for Psionic attribrute

Psionic Lich anyone
