On Psionics

That's right, I thought that I would write about something I know, I just feel bad because the only people who read this blog don't game. So about a month ago Wizards announced that they would be releasing the psionic class for their 4e gaming system. I was a little worried because they announced that the psion would have a point system. In the past editions the psion has always been an overpowered mage, part of this was caused by the point system. In older versions, the psion could put any magic user to shame by the pure number of spells it could use in a game. I was worried that Wizards would do the same in the new edition. To my surprise, I found that the psion was very well balanced. To really understand the balance of the psion you need to be familiar with the 4e rules, but I do have to say cu-does to Wizard for finally fixing the psion. I will have to say that 4e has really fixed a lot of the classes and if you haven't given it a shot, look into it, it makes playing all the classes fun.
