A slow trickle of recent psions finally motivated me to do some work on this class (There are still a few Chengband classes I'm not satisfied with and this is one of them). I'm open to ideas for improvements, but so far I think:

[1] There are some really useless spell choices that aren't worth picking (Blending, Brain Smash, and possibly even Protection). These should be improved.

[2] You have flexibility on your playstyle, but only to a point. I find my casting approaches will always pick the same ability set except possibly for the final spell.

I still need to try out a melee approach, but I think the caster approach is pretty well balanced at the moment, and should be able to win. Clear Mind is fantastically necessary in the early going, however ;)

Yay, vindication (or some other such concept)!

I notice that you've finally made the psion powers viewable in the dumps again! Did you also improve the efficiency of the 'Psionic Clarity' power? I thought that when I was looking at the code I came to the conclusion that tier five gave a cost modifier of 67% rather than 50%.

As far as the (supposedly) useless powers go, my thoughts are these (beware the text wall!):

Blending, I feel, is a little difficult to get a bead on. How useful it is is dependent on a number of things (your stealth without it, your current speed, how far out of your depth you are, ect.); the simplest solution might be to make it a toggle power that lowers your maximum available SP while it's active, with the higher tiers having higher penalties. For the record, the reason I haven't taken it with my psions is that I think that stealth is an all-or-nothing thing . . . and if I'm going to focus on stealth, I'd prefer to not use stealth that might give out at an inopportune moment.

Brain Smash I can't really give a qualified opinion on, as I've not yet been able to get to a level where I could choose it. Even if I was able to do so, though, I probably wouldn't choose it, as it's my experience that you can never get a detrimental effect to stick to anything you'd really like it to. Also, I have enough trouble getting an 'Ego Whip' to take, sometimes.

Protection could stand some improving, to be sure--the five resistances it gives you at tier five are the ones you *REALLY* want to keep covered all the time, and due to diminishing returns, it's not really worth it just so you can stack those resists. I can think of a couple of ways to fix it: have it also cover some secondary resists, or have it provide multiple hits of a resistance, perhaps even an immunity.

P.S.

Why 'Mana Thrust' instead of 'Energy Blast'? Also, did you forget about your comp character?

Thanks for the feedback. I'll try to come up with something to improve the powers I named. I like the idea of Protection giving one elemental immunity (choice) at the top tier. I've already tweaked the duration of effects for next version and this should help with blending, which lasts a long time now. And Brain Smash just needs to work rather than being easily resisted.

I prefer Thrust to Blast since it is unresistable (though reflectable ... see Smaug!)

And speaking of Whip, it is really good *if* you have your spell stat maxed and can cast one of the top tier versions. I just took out Smaug at CL33 (06:28) with Whip V and Dimension Door: Piece of Cake :)

Regarding Clarity, it's an ability you really have to take as a psion, but is only required in the end game to cast the uber powers. Unfortunately, the way the power choices go, you often have to pick it in the early game when it is pretty useless. To combat this, I took another 10% off the spell costs. Keep in mind, psions can't gain decrement mana any other way (though I'm tempted to add a psion only artifact for this).

On 24.1.2015 15:26 TheOtherMITZE@yahoo.com wrote:
See, I prefer Blast to Thrust because Blast can affect multiple enemies. If something is resisting, well, just switch elements . . . though, such thinking is probably going to get me killed if/when I make it far enough to run into things that resist base.

Does 'Spell Pow' work for psions?

On 24.1.2015 16:18 chris wrote:
Code diving reveals you can pick the element for blast ... I forgot I changed that! It used to be the case that the power implied the elemental form, so you had to use a weaker power to circumvent monster resistance. Hmm ... blast might be a better choice after all :)

Spell power works for psions. Decrement mana does not.

Changes so far (next version):
[1] Seeing gives Clairvoyance for the top tier.
[2] Blending gives more stealth and lasts a very long time. I might use this for an archer build.
[3] Protection is better: Fire&Cold -> Fire&Cold&Elec -> Resistance -> Resistance + Elemental Auras -> Immunity.

I have ideas for new powers as well:
[1] A psionic drain spell that feeds the players mana whenever a visible monster casts a spell.
[2] A psionic disruption spell that attempts to block monster spellcasting.
[3] A psionic line of sight damage spell that is weaker than storm (which will be give a smaller area of effect).

I'll put out a trial release soon ...

On 24.1.2015 16:44 TheOtherMITZE@yahoo.com wrote:
. . . Blast used to have its elements tier-locked? Huh. Though loathed I am to say it, that makes me think that either Blast should be nerfed or Thrust should be buffed--I don't think Thrust being unresistable is enough of a reason to choose it over Blast, given that they do the same damage.

Also:

[1] I actually think that Seeing is fine as it--it might already be too good, in fact, with it providing on-demand near-perfect detection *AND* mapping *AND* telepathy.

[2] Is it possible for the psionic drain spell to still feed player mana when a monster fails to cast a spell? The idea of a disruption/drain combo brings a smile to my face . . .

On 24.1.2015 21:05 chris wrote:
Well, you need to compare Seeing to, say, Travel which gives Dimension Door. Everything Seeing used to offer is readily available, and generally fairly early on (Perhaps telepathy might take a bit, but Thranduil is rather common). So choosing Seeing really felt like an early game convenience trade-off. But with Clairvoyance (super rare, and usually only available late), it becomes much more tempting. Between Travel and Seeing, the choice is now more difficult. Even protection, with immunity, is worth consideration.

BTW, Brain Smash isn't as bad as I remembered. If the monster fails its saving throw, it gets slowed as well as stunned or confused. The slow effect is pretty powerful as it works on uniques and is unresistable (unlike stun and confuse).

Finally, archer builds can now craft ego shooters! So at the moment, I don't think there are any powers that aren't worth trying at all.

On 24.1.2015 21:07 chris wrote:
Regarding Thrust, there are plenty of monsters that resist all the elements so its still worth choosing.

Regarding Drain, I went with something a bit different so, no, if the spell is blocked you won't benefit. It would be hard to code it this way anyway since monsters don't pay mana casting costs so you really only have a vague idea how much drain to apply after the spell is cast (using damage as a proxy for mana).

Question to chris:

Do Athena-parentage Psions get a "mana discount" for failing spells? Also, does the Demigod-ability, "Arcane mastery" reduce the Psion's fail rate?

(If you make a psi artifact, it should probably be the Agate Knife, and the LOS damage spell should be the Circuit. :] )

@Hugo: Yes and yes. Athena parentage also gives -2% spell fail (so you can get -5% with Arcane Mastery if you so desire).

I've been taking out most uniques with less than honorable play:
[1] Ego Whip V
[2] Psionic Storm II
[3] Dimension Door out of LOS to regain mana
[4] Repeat as necessary

Ego Whip is awesome for monsters that think they can flee my wrath by teleporting away. Although, one side effect was when Saruman did this, dying some place on the level (his range is huge), and having the level feeling go special in The Arena. It took awhile to find the loot :)

CL50 will be Mental Fortress, I think.

I was looking at Storm V. :/

Yeah, I don't think that will ever be usable due to the high fail rate. Storm IV will end up failing at 9% which is about all I can stomach. In practice, I'll probably only use Storm III for the most part.

Equipment is stuck ... I need a second source of fear at this point, so my lame boots need to stay. And DkNtSh has been elusive. I have lots of options at this point; perhaps I am missing something?

Storm III will be 24% more mana efficient than Storm IV. Sans Restore Mana, this is a big enough difference to matter. At the moment, I can only handle about 5k worth of monster with all my sp, so I need to think about these things! Of course, everything changes vs The Serpent :)

I finally got enough melee for The Cloning Pits and also, it seems, The Old Castle as well. Both rewards were nice but I thought I'd post my melee kit before shuffling for Eternity, which I absolutely *must* find a way to wear!

This character becomes very weak once sp run out, and I didn't want to risk things going bad in the quests (Clear Mind is like 7sp a pop and you seldom have time in quests to spam it 30x in a row). And Ringil really needed to see some action this game :)

Well, my mana woes are over as I took Mindspring instead for my L50 power. Definitely a weaker choice than either Fortress or Disruption, at least for the Serpent. But it will make getting there oh so much more fun! I just turn on the Mindspring and forget about sp. Heck, I've even risked the uber high fail rate top tier psionic storm a bit. No problems with ~L70 uniques, so I'll head a bit deeper.

Well, I wasn't really playing careful with this guy. A bit OP, I decided to try Master Tonberry and I proved that he is indeed a death trap. I missed the message about my speed running out but it probably wouldn't have mattered anyway. He summoned a bunch of tonberries who came in with free moves good for all my hp in one fell swoop. AC 163 is high for a mage type, so I guess he should just be left alone.

Condolences, I've never fought that thing, it's very rare and I'm always too afraid.

I didn't realise mindspring was on actions instead of turns, when I was testing it I was at +0 speed so I thought it wasn't very good at all.
