@Undead_MerchantPsionics PDF looks great, but Immortal Mystic has zero need for INT. Features scale with points/level. @mikemearls, is this intentional?
yes, still need Int for power attack/save DC (tho not important for immortals), but I'm ok with the immortal dumping it

Psionic release date
.@DLalichIs there a target date for official release of Psionics? This fall seems unlikely, maybe next spring?
like the core 5e game, will release official rules for psionics when they hit our high targets for quality. that's our deadline.

@Maldroth @DLalichwill we have a playtest period like what was done with the core rules?
yes! targeted release date is when it is thoroughly tested, approved, and complete, just like 5e

@sirgourlsI had assumed that was pretty true of everything we see in UA? That we’ll see those things in an print once they’re ready? assuming they represent concepts people like, yes

Deathknight’s Hellfire Orb
@nahualrpgis a deathknight’s Hellfire Orb considered spell damage for a paladin’s Aura of Warding spell damage resistance? no, it applies specifically to spells.

Eldritch Knight and Arcane Trickster foci
@kvltjamshould Eldritch Knights (and Arcane Tricksters) get Foci? Things like Wand of the War Mage would help with Evocations.
wand works for them as written AFAICT
— Mike Mearls (@mikemearls) June 22, 2015
@kvltjamdoes this mean that they can also use “mundane” spell foci? Do they also get Ritual Caster? yes and no – ritual caster must be specifically granted by a class feature

Swashbuckler sneak attack
@vashzx1Hey Mike with swashbucklers sneak attack, does the sneak attack go off with the main AND offhand attack? core rule for sneak attack remains the same (once per turn). You just have more stuff that would let you use it, be gone when used

Paralyzing reaction
@EpicWizardGuyif somebody had a reaction that would “paralyze the attacker when they attack you”, would the attack still go through or no? default is that the reaction happens first, but specific ones might say otherwise

The article has been corrected and is now ready to go. Enjoy our first step into the world of psionics in 5e – http://t.co/nGhABJUeMJ

For folks looking at the psionics material in today’s UA, looks like there was a minor error. Not all the material is there.
