Little question on wild psionic talents...

Dec 24, 2003 22:38:34 I didn't find anything on wild psionic talents in DS3... is it here somewhere? If not, any sugestions? The old fashion "give a little power for everyone" was suppressed?

I'm still starting with the psionics rules, never used them before, but either way for our first DS campaign we're gonna need some psionics, otherwise it's not Dark Sun...

Thanks

Wildtalent is a [Psionic] feat that allows you to use a 0-level Power a few times every day.

Dec 26, 2003 12:07:04 Specifically, you're not going to find anything that gives out free psionic powers as Wild Talents, as you would in DS[12]. In 3e, you don't get to have something for nothing ... if you want a WT, you have to pay for it.

Hence, the Talented and Wild Talent feats. Anything beyond that, you'd best take levels as a psion. (Some board members have put forth systems that would allow you to have higher level powers as a wild talent ... however, the balance implications of that could be quite dramatic)

And, of course, all that said ... the 3.5 Psionic HB is due out in April. There may be something new in there.
