@LeMarcSharma @mikemearlsShouldn’t the mystic have included (optional?) rules about dispel magic, even counterspell, and psionics? We're experimenting with a version that is unaffected by dispel magic & counterspell.

Psionic creatures
Psionic creatures (mind flayers, gith, et al.) show their power through innate spells etc. A psionic class could be built the same way. #DnD

@jaa0109…So a potential Psion class wouldn’t be part of the Mystic class? The mystic touches on the same story territory as the old psion.

I suggest developing an integrated approach to psionics and monsters…
@DeanMSimmonsI suggest, strongly, developing an integrated approach to psionics and retconning monsters as needed. We have an integrated approach to psionics in the game, using innate spells and special abilities. The mystic is the variant.

How would you handle the situation if I multiclassed four levels into Mystic and didn’t have Wisdom save prof.?
@SaintNoofAs DM, how would you handle the situation if I multiclassed four levels into mystic and didn’t have Wisdom save prof.? As DM, I wouldn't let a player multiclass into an unofficial class that isn't built for multiclassing.

Any thoughts on how the mystic might integrate with settings like Dragonlance?

If we make a class official, we'll give tips on integrating it. Meanwhile, things in the multiverse have a habit of world hopping. #DnD https://t.co/7P6VrgcL89

Will psionic races use elements from the Mystic or just psionic-flavored traits?
@JeremyECrawford will psionic races (kalashtar, gith etc) use elements from the Mystic or just psionic-flavored traits e.g telepathy?

Too soon to say what we'd use from the mystic if it became official. Psionics are already in the game, in any case. #DnD https://t.co/fyb3sf0om5

Do you foresee changing existing psionic monsters?
@JeremyECrawford @mikemearls once the mystic is done, with psionics more fully developed, do you foresee changing existing psionic monsters?
— C M (@corymacdonald) March 15, 2017
The mystic is a class. If it becomes official, a monster could use parts of it, as already happens with classes like the wizard. #DnD https://t.co/73jgZeiHIx

How do you get playtest feedback?
@JeremyECrawford how do you get playtest feedback? I assume the questionnaires are too early for real feedback?
— Matthías Páll Giss. (@tritlo) March 14, 2017
Unearthed Arcana surveys stay open for 3–4 weeks. We get feedback from them, our playtesters who've signed NDAs, and our own play. #DnD https://t.co/PcHD10Bu83
— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) March 15, 2017
@JeremyECrawford Why only 4 weeks? We're about to start a campaign and it's a shame we can't give feedback for UA over a long period of play
— ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ (@gabriel403) March 15, 2017
UA feedback helps us decide whether a concept is worth more development. If it is, we then spend months developing/playtesting it. #DnD https://t.co/sRV9HSnJZj

@gabriel403 We have several hundred playtesters who sign NDAs and provide feedback before we publish something.
