  • Idea for a new class...

    Psionist..

    Remember those from AD&D?

    Wouldn't be a bad addition, and would really thow a curve in the PvP servers!

    I'm also suprised noone ever got into Chronomancy (Magic of Time)
    Draggar De'Vir
    92 Assassin - Povar




    Xzorsh
    57 Druid of Tunare - Povar
    47 Druid of Tunare - Lockjaw

    Hark! Who is that, prowling along the fields! It is Draggar De'VIr, hands clutching two hardened pitas! He cries gutterally: "In the name of Thor the Mighty, I hereby void your warranty, and send you back to God!!!"

    "No one can predict the future, so we all should eat our desserts first!" - Gaye from 'The Maelstorm's Eye" (Cloakmaster's Cycle book 3)

    If you ignore all of the enchanters enchanting, they are pretty close to 1st edition psionicists.

      first of all, according to someone that knows more than I do about these things (my dad), the entire addition of psionics in D&D was an attempt to make it more like scence fiction.

      As for chronomancy, in FF5 there was a class called time mage, only it just got all the spells that weren't white or black magic, and they called it effect magic. Of course there were some interesting things it could do, like reset a battle or cause the condition "old", but mostly it was just an enchanter with a fancy name. In other FFs, besides tactics and possibly orginal 3, effect magic, aka. time magic, was just lumped in with the rest of the magic, which is closer to what they did with it in EQ.

        Probably the best way to work out psionics would be to look at 3rd D&D ones and then at the EQ D20 game. That way you have an easier time with parallels.

        That said... I'm not completely sure what the point would be. With the use of power points and lack of memorizing (IIRC), psionics in 3rd work a lot like.... a mana-based system, like EQ casters already are. doh.
