No Perception Proficiency Improvement?


Psychic Class


May have missed something when looking at the details of the class, but I don't see a Perception improvement for the Psychic. Based on other full casters, I believe we expect that to kick up to Expert at level 11.

We made the landing page live 15 minutes before the blog. Carry on. :)


A link to the download went live. I read the document from there, didn't know the blog wasn't live yet since the forums were up.

Rather appropriate for a playtest centered on exploring the unknown.
;-)

Or maybe you are truly Psychic.


My guess is that perception doesn't increase because the Psychic's will save bumps to legendary, which other full casters tend not to do, aside from the Bard.

And oracles.


The d8 full caster classes w/o Wis as their primary stat get bumped up to Legendary Will. I think it's to balance against the higher Wisdom of their peers. (And to keep those peers a defensive notch above those feeble d6 folk. Hmm...would a Wisdom d6 caster only go to Expert Will to balance?)

As to the OP, do Psychics perhaps have other senses (or options for) to make up the difference?

I'd still like to see the Psychic's Perception get boosted.. perhaps even to Legendary.
