Can Aegis use Metapsionic Feats.


Advice and Rules Questions


Please see subject.

I'm running a gestalt Rogue (True Professional) and a Aegis (Trailblazer) and took most of ranged attack Customization, flight and some defenses.

So can the Aegis' Energy blast be maximized via maximize power feat, and the maximized power feat also max out the damage fro Psionic shot feat metapysic shot feat (The Mind Unveiled - Feats).

Example here's my build: Rouge/Aegis Lv 5

Aegis Suit Weapons Systems

Empowered Blast Cp1: PR: Energy Blast. At 4th level use 1PP/Lv +1d6 added to Ranged Attack/Energy Blast dmg.

Ranged Attack Cp1: Fire non-psionic crystal formed the astral suit. 1d8, Rng 30'. This attack can be used as part of a full attack

Energy Blast Cp2: PR: Range Attack. At 4th Lv as a full attack action ranged touch attack 1d6 of chosen energy type.

Improved Ranged Attack Cp2: PR: Ranged Attack. At 5th Lv. +1 die dmg to Ranged Attack or Energy Blast/ 5 Lvs.

My feat chain in order

(Drawback/Unearthed Arcana) Student of the Astral Suit: Custimization points and Options are treated as if 4 levels higher.
(Drawback/Unearthed Arcana) Psionic Meditation: psionicaly focused as move action

(Human Bonus Feat) Psionic Body: +2 HP/Psionic feat

(General Lv 1 Feat) Psionic Shot: +1 ranged damage or use psionic focus for +2d6 range damamge
(True Professional Bonus Feat Lv1) Point-blank Shot: +1 att/dmg up to 30 feet

(Rogue Talent Lv 2: Combat Feat) Precise Shot: no -4 pen shooting into a melee

(General Lv 3 Feat) Maximize Power: use psionic focus to max variable, numeric effects of a power
(True Professional Bonus Feat Lv3) Deep Focus: gain psionic focus with your subconscious mind

(Rogue Talent Lv 4: Combat Feat) Bulls-eye Shot: use move action for +4 bonus on your next ranged attack roll before the end of your turn.

(General Lv 5 Feat) Metapsychic Shot: while psionicaly focused as part of full attack action +1d6 ranged attack damage
(True Professional Bonus Feat Lv5) Metapower: make one power permanently fused with a metapsionic feat with a total cost reduction of 2PP

Set up
BAB 5
Dex Mod 5
Consciences psionicaly focused
Subconscience psionicaly foucsed

Maximized Improved Energy Blast (2d6) with Psionic Shot (2d6) and Metapsychic Shot + (5d6) 5 PP [PC Lv] Empowered Ranged Attack = 9d6 = 54 Energy type damage for 7 PP.

take move action for tactical advantage, end with 2nd move action for +4 attack bonus till end of my next turn.

Next turn: full attack action Energy Blast
+14 to attack roll (+15 at point blank)
54 Energy type damage for 7 PP.

Is this right? If not how can I make it better.


1) Student of the Astral Suit, doesn't do anything for you as your HD are already capped being Gestalted. The reason that feat exists is for people who multi class and lose levels in comparison to total hit dice.

2) Customizations aren't powers, so meta psionic feats won't work on them RAW (like meta magic feats don't work on spell like abilities).

3) Pretty sure Psionic Shot is additional damage, so wouldn't be affected by meta feats which adjust the power only.

You will probably have to rethink your character with all that in mind.
