Students of the mind and body, psychics are the masters of psionic energy. Capable of manipulating the world with their mind, psychics are proof that a strong mind can bend the world to its needs.

I took a look at the preview since there are (right now) two rave reviews out for this, but I feel like you can tell even at a glance that the numbers are off.

Let's take a 9th level Psychic for example and spend 10 Psionic Energy Dice on a power. You could either do 10d10 piercing to 1 target up to 30 feet away, ranged psionic attack, no damage on miss (Crystal Shard)...or you could do 10d10 psychic in a 20 feet AoE at up to 60 feet away with a Int save for half (Telepathic Explosion).

It should be exceedingly obvious that one of these options is *vastly* better than the other (like, if they were spells, they'd easily be 2 spell levels apart). The problem lies in wanting (most) every damage power to scale on a per dice basis and having the die size linked to class level instead of individual powers. This equalizes damage from one power to the next (again, for most damage powers, there are rare exeptions) when the "delivery method" (i.e. the range, AoE, inflicted conditions,...See more
