While there are already wordcasting Varients for core and base classes, I would like to add varients for hybrid and psychic classes. I already did the Arcanist:
Arcanist Wordcasters always have all target words and the Boost meta word prepared. They can prepare a number of additional effect and meta words of each level as shown on Table: Arcanist Spells Prepared.
Any suggestions?
Hello?

The hybrid classes should be easier to finish, as the only two hybrid classes that need any real work are Bloodrager and Shaman. What should the class word lists be for these two?
The big problem with wordcasting is that there weren't enough published words, so only the wizard/sorcerer and cleric/oracle actually had enough published spells to actually function effectively. The difficulty with converting psychics to the wordcasting list is that you'll need to convert a lot of their spells to words, otherwise they will fall into the same trap of simply not having enough content. I'm not sure how the bloodrager or shaman would fare (since they have some pretty good overlap with existing classes) but they may also need new words to function effectively.
Certainly this is the biggest problem with words of power. Sorcerers and Oracles fair well under the system, Wizards and Clerics function but suffer severely for it, and every other class is borderline dysfunctional since their word list is far too small.
