Notes:

1) Twinned Ecto-Shambler (34 hp / round when twinned - no SR, no save, no attack rolls, magical damage) on non-DR classes / opp?s is a great fire and forget power. You have to manually Psi-focus (bogus!)  (Ahem, f-off, WotC geniuses!) to twin the Shambler.

2) Energy Current (Kineticist only) ? max augment & meta-psi then make sure no one ?punks? you into attacking (breaks power). Does ~ 165 ? 330 hp / round (Cold Fort half, all others [fire, sonic, et. al.] Flex half) concentrating ? no pp drain. Do not use on high SR races unless Lower Spell Resistance is used first.

3) Energy Missile (Kineticist only) DC save is NOT a misprint, DC = 10 + 2 (base power level) + 1 / pp + ability mod. Max augment save ~ 50+ DC (Cold Fort half, all others [fire, sonic, et. al.] Flex half) for five twinned, max & empowered missiles. Cannot target same opp twice (arg!). Do not use on high SR races unless Lower Spell Resistance is used first.

4) If you don?t like a power choice (i.e. Mental Barrier = WotC trash!), use Psychic Reformation.

5) Psi-Meditation (aka Psi Medi-Wasting) was intentionally not taken (BS 3.5 mechanic).

6) Race was chosen over Illithid due to better natural AC, Con and Str bonuses.
That is not dead which can eternal lie.
And with strange aeons even death may die.

Updated with Practiced Manifester, corrected bonus power points and psi-bogus mitigation ;).
