I was recently thinking of having spells using multiple spell slots or using both spell slots and power points (yes, this was something I thought of for fixing mystic theurge type classes)

Description

Examples

Blast of the magical mind
Enchantment/Telepathy [mind affecting]
Slot 1: Sorcerer/Wizard 1
Slot 2: Psion/Wilder 1 (1 power point)
Components: V, S, M
Display: Visual
Casting time: 1 standard action
Range: Close
Effect: 1 ray
Duration: instantaneous + 1 round (see text)
Saving throw: Will partial, base DC 11 (Add int) (see text)
SR/PR: Both (see text)

You send a ray of fire energy towards your opponent's head, this ray is guided by the psionic energies of your mind, this ray grants you a +2 bonus on the attack roll. If the ray hits it deals 1d4/arcane caster level fire damage as well as stunning the target for 1 round. If the save is made the target isn't stunned but otherwise the spell has its normal effect.

Material component: Red crystal dust

Augment
For every additional power point you spend the duration of the stunning is extended by 1 round.

Every two additional power points spend augmenting this power increase the will save DC by 1.

I like the idea, though I'm not sure how you're implementing it.

Personally, I'd use it as a home brew rebalance. It's generally accepted magic-users weren't play-tested properly. Using this spells like Finger of Death, or Wish could be easily balanced by requiring more than just one spell slot.
