Mind Melders!
I’ve collected all tweet Questions about Psionic Unearthed Arcana, with answers from designers Master Mike Mearls and Jeremy Crawford.
Just a note, this is playtest material is not final, Master Mike wants to stress rules and have your feedbacks from the next survey, probably you’ll see a third and fourth version of Psionic before will be official. This is the same method used for 5th edition rules, the best rules ever created.
I might be on vacation, but I can still use the powers of the mind to bring you a revised mystic! https://t.co/D0H6ZzrEbP

@TheXethikNew psionics are great. I’m surprised Lethal Strike is still 1 pp for 1d10 damage. You dont feel it encourages too much novaing? the points limit per power use helps rein that in, but remember that the mystic does not get multiple attacks – compare to for

@Turkeygiantwhere is a mystic’s order’s “benefit” from using it’s “associated disciplines”, is it just a synergistic benefit? it’s the Int mod healing they get

@redkatartistNew Psionics look awesome!! Except for Consumptive Power – give up 70%-100% of max HP to regain 8% of your psi pts??? compare to Divine Intervention in the cleric – not something you’ll use unless you really, really need those points
— Mike Mearls (@mikemearls) February 2, 2016
@redkatartist but divine intervention doesn’t leave you mostly dead, and could duplicate any cleric spell or a god’s will. Way better deal. yeah, but most of the time your deity puts you on hold rather than answer the phone

@JstillfeatherWhy did the Awakened Mystic get hit with an Epic Nerf hammer? I’d say the boost in flexibility is pretty big upgrade, compared to a few specific pull backs

@feelieking I really like the new version of the Mystic Is the Order of the Invisible Hand still on the table for future development? yes, though with a new name.

@jaa0109 Conquering Mind’s Psychic Grip: Can you choose where the target is forced to move to? Like into an acid pit?
yes— Mike Mearls (@mikemearls) February 2, 2016
@SethdeReusAm I blind, or is the Order benefit for using a psionic Discipline missing from the UA article? should be regain hit points equal to Int mod
— Mike Mearls (@mikemearls) February 2, 2016
@Daeva001 Do Mystic disciplines’ Orders only matter for Mystical Recovery or did I miss something? nope, just mystical recovery

@JosephBlazerWhy no mention of Dal Quor in the section on psionics in Eberron? total oversight
— Mike Mearls (@mikemearls) February 2, 2016
@SalmonSquire should a deep gnome mystic named “yoda” go immortal or awakened? awakened!

@TubaDanCrossis mystic the only class that gets a level 4 ability that isn’t an ASI? The druid and the monk do as well.

@jeremyecrawford I love this sentence: “In general, an effect that affects a spell has no effect on a psionic effect.”
— KlutzLament (@KlutzLament) February 2, 2016
That sentence is meant to summon Effect, the Lesser Baronet of Spectacle in Dal Quor. https://t.co/FoglFb6Gk4
