So, anyone got any good ideas for a mythic path for psionic casters? I would ask jeremy what he has in mind but he is extremely busy right now with all the ultimate psionics stuff. I would prefer not to just ape the archmage and hierophant, but have some really unique abilities. I wish I had some ideas, but right now I'm at a loss. Maybe I'll have some thoughts in the future, but what about you clever folks?
P.S. Maybe this should go in homebrew, not sure.

I've only had a brief amount of time to look over the preview, but I'm thinking there will likely be 2 mythic paths for psionics... but beyond that, I really don't have any more insight to give.
Working on that for me is likely 3-4 months out, unless I get hit with inspiration out of the blue.
We'll wait. ;)
Yeah if you've got plans that soon I can be patient. Although, I'm sure he would appreciate ideas, so if anybody's got some good ones.
What are the two paths you're thinking, generally? There's the manifesting one, obviously, but what of the other? I was trying to think if there'd be more than one today and I came up short.

Very generally speaking?
Something for manifesting. Kind of a given.
Something for psionic energy in weapons / items (something that soulknives, psychic warriors, aegii, etc. would like)
But that's a very, very loose first glance at the concept and how the playtest paths are.
In all likelihood, we'd be more likely to have something outlined, wait for the finished book from Paizo, and adapt it based on that.
What happen to this? is there any plan for Mythic Psionics?

yup. We are working on it once we finish up Ultimate Psionics.
Would you really need new paths, or just new mythic feats/path abilities?
It seems like you could do a lot with the existing paths, you just need new options within them for psionics

I support this whole heartily!

My thoughts from the Mythic Psionics discussion at the Dreamscarred forums:
"There is an "arcane magic" mythic path. Applicable for wizards, sorcerers, and to an extent the other arcane casters.
There is also a "divine magic" mythic path. Applicable for the cleric, druid, and to an extent the other divine casters.
Why would a "psionic power" mythic path not fit in that same theme?"
It's unlikely we'll add more than 1 (perhaps 2) new path, and then would add psionic options for the Guardian, Trickster, Marshal, and and Champion. Psionic options for the Archmage and Hierophant just don't make sense.
Plus mythic psionic feats, mythic psionic powers, etc.
Seeing as "mythic" essentially plays as a higher power fantasy setting any idea if you are ever going to do a post 20/"epic" rule set?

That will be cool, even with Mythic I miss Epic, Dreamscarred make a great work bringing Psionics to Pathfinder so it will be fantastic if they bring Epic. I always had the idea that all the 3.5 SRD should had been converted.

I know I'm late to this little party, and I don't usually engage in forum necromancy, but I just finished going over Ultimate Psionics and am super excited to hear more about anything Mythic. The idea of mythic manifesters makes my mouth water. Any chance we'll get to see this before the fall?

Not much to give in the way of updates, unfortunately.
I've been pretty fully consumed trying to get everyone's copy of Ultimate Psionics shipped, leaving very little time to work on other things.
I'll see if I can whip up some mythic psionic powers for playtesting - I have a ton of notes, just very little that's fully developed.

Well Jeremy, thank you for all the awesome work that you all at Dreamscarred Press put into Ultimate Psionics. I've been a fan of psionics since getting my hands on the rules for 2nd Ed, and I think these are the best I've seen released. The next trick is getting my DM to let me play a Psion (he's not familiar with psionics and doesn't want to let me play them till he's spun up).
Looking forward to seeing how any mythic stuff comes up, and I know you'll do just as great a job with them as you did with the core rules.
Perhaps like an energy signature like the Phoenix or Psylocke's little butterfly?
So it's VERY early, but here's a thread I started on psionic powers.
I snuck in some time to try to finish up the Overmind path (name still open to changing) and added in a couple more path abilities, including trying to finish up the 3rd and 6th tier abilities so that I can get those posted up.
