Psionic Powers
As a Psion you can feats called Discipline Adept and Diverse Focus. These two put together are confusing me.
Diverse Focus [ELAN BLOODLINE]
Prerequisite: Elan Heritage, psion, Discipline
Focus class feature
Benefit: Choose and gain a Discipline Focus other
than one you already possess. You can use any powers
associated with that Discipline Focus as DAILY powers.
Discipline Adept
Prerequisite: Psion, Discipline Focus class
feature
Benefit: You can use each power granted by your
Discipline Focus twice per ENCOUNTER.
So are the new powers from Diverse Focus DAILY or ENCOUNTER??

Re: Psionic Powers
By the RAW I'd say 2/Encounter (those powers are granted by your Psionic Focus after all), and that's just fine given the # of feats you have to invest, and the fact that those powers aren't at all gamebreaking, even at 2/encounter.

Re: Psionic Powers
discipline adept was obviously written assuming you had 1/encounter powers. It was not written to handle all of the possible feats/paragonpath features you could have come across.
RAW you get each one (from your class and from your diverse focus) 2/encounter, but I'd get it approved by your dm.
If I was your dm I'd give you the ones from your class 2/encounter and the ones from feat 2/day but your dm may be different.

Re: Psionic Powers
I guess I should have stated the fact that I am the DM and it's a player that wants to do this. I was just asking to find out what everybody thought I should do with it. Sounds like everybody is in the 2/encounter side which sounds good to me.

Re: Psionic Powers
By RAW we are. However, as a DM it's up to you to make the decision about this. If you feel the player is being a bit too optimized, you can always knock it down a notch. If you go the route of 1/day (or the compromise of 2/day), I would let him know that you've learned 2/enc is RAW, but you feel that it's a bit overpowered.
I can't really say whether I think it's overpowered since I don't know what Discipline Focus is. I'd have to go look at Psionics, and honestly, I haven't looked at half of the psionic classes. However, that is a pretty heavy feat investment, so take that into consideration.Thank you Ceika for the wonderful Avatar avatar!
