If you are having trouble to make a newly-added templar into Psion, and you use [WOTC] Additional Soldier Console Commands, use the commmand "rebuildselectedsoldierclass templar psion #" to change your newly added templar into a psion.
Dunno why, but using the "Makefactionsolderaclass" wasn't working.
Now the Psion can use both templar gauntlets and psi-amps

Hope I could help

So did the missing friendly description / abilities get resolved?

Hi umm... having a problem... the class is missing several abilities... they just show up as "missing friendly description text" errors... selecting them anyway does nothing...

I was looking forward to trying it out more it was really great, but with a combination of "No More PsiAmps" (/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1467502437) and potentially Grimy's Loot Mod (by Ginger) it consistently crashes when equipping the Psion with an upgraded Psi Underlay. That coupled with T.Psion/S.Heavy/R.Scythe not qualifying for respective Covert Action requirements I'll have to forego for the time being. But keep up the great works loved the classes while it lasted.

@Freddy But isn’t that a Reaper?

Hello, not sure if it's a problem with this mod or something else but I seem to have a problem and I will admit, tried to see if by removing this mod it fixed it, but it didn't and I am asking here to see if anyone can figure out what the problem may be as right now I got an issue where Templars seem to end up being a weird mix of a Templar and something else entirely.

If anyone knows any way I could fix this please tell me.

I can’t choose or get vanilla templar in the game, how can i fix it. By the way i got empowered templar mod, and i also modified some templar skills, and i also got the same problem in heavy skirmisher and reaper scythe

Is this a new "class" or its just the templaR?

i have other templar class mod and i do not know its its compatible because it seems that other mod "change" the templar class instead of addading a new one.

also, is tere a reason why my "hand" is invisible while using ballistica shields ?

My Psons seem to be having issues with not casting powers as well.

Is there any way for the Psion to equip the Psi Offense PCS from Additional PCS mod?

A Templar that's actually good before major? This is unreal.

QUESTION : will this mod override the supreme focus mod? or will it cause conflicts?

Yep, that was exactly the issue. My templar was getting psion abilities but since it wasn't an actual psion I couldn't equip psi amps. I had to use the MakeFactionSoldierAClass command to turn them into a psion and I turned them back to a regular templar, this fixes the base templar's abilities.

@teslapunk I have the same issue. In your roster is the soldier's class title just "Templar" or "Templar Psion"? My "Reaper Scythe" soldier has the correct class name but my Templar is just "Templar" but they have psion abilities.

I love getting access to psionic abilities early on, but insanity is fairly useless - every enemy in the game has at least 50 will, the Psion starts with 50 Psi Offense, Insanity has - at best - a 50% chance to work, and once Psions become Corporals, they can get Soulfire, which is massively better.
If some of the basic infantry enemies - like troopers, vipers, and mutons - had very low will, Insanity could be effective.

What happens if you get the trainable templar class mod? Could you get a psion through that?

The insanity ability doesn't over ride the base version of insanity does it??

My Templar Psion has Psion abilities but can't equip psi amps or use the psi abilities (They cast but have no effect) am I missing something or is it just broken?

My Templar Psion is getting the Templar Dragoon's abilities for some reason, any idea why?

Has anyone managed to add the Brigadier rank to this class? PZ seems to be missing for a while now lol

Hate to be a stickler, but I don't think the Focus-on-kill effect for TPSoulfire is working right. I know I'm not getting any from it right now. :I

Could someone post the psion's default AP gain per promotion? I lowered it a while ago to match other classes without realizing that the psion's abilities are more expensive. Just want to get back to default without resubbing and having to redo other changes I made.

hey Pz do you have any ideal on why kill don't give no focus at all??

here is the two thing that could be but i would like your opinion on this

1) i have a Ammo "dragon ammo" on himto give his blade incendary damage (like my normal Templar)

2) i have bladestorm ability on him.

So the crazy thing is that whenever i see a enemy, it mark as Bladestorm activate from afar enemy and it shoot his side harm ( that doesn't exist since he have the Psi amp in his secondary) and does normal damage witch is not normal ( i don't have the mod to give him additiontal secondary slot). and whenever i close in for the kill nothing appen no focus fill up..

can anyone else try this and see if it does the same to you?

Oh sorry, its an area effect Fortress from PsiOp class in LW2 classes mod. But actually I think I figured out an workaround.

I'm not sure if I can help you without more information. What is LW2WotC_Bastion?

Hey PZ, I'm trying to make this work with LW2WotC_Bastion but I'm getting error that solace is required. Is there a way for me to make it where it will work with the version of solace you have for Psion via ,ini?

I started using the musashi RPG overhaul mods with this and Im having the issue with a psion unable to equip an amp. Can someone give me the exact wording for a console command because I keep screwing something up.

Do not seem to count as a templar for covert operations.

this a new thing with the mod i've been killing people left and right yet his focus don't rise?

as anyone else had this issue?

Ah cool thx alot man

You have to use MakeFactionSoldierAClass (a new command provided by this mod) or it won't work. The class name itself is TemplarPsion

What class name would I enter for MakeSoldierAClass?

Hmm is it random for templar or templar psion soldiers? All the templars I've received have been psion.

If I wanted to make some adjustments, like increase damage to soul fire etc, can I do so in the .ini?

@PZ, no worries. Just a cool idea I had. Thanks for being so responsive. The Psionically Guided Bullets mod was really what inspired me, so maybe check that out?

I pretty much just copy-pasted the stuff from the Templar, to be honest. I might look at it at some point but no promises.

@PZ Focus baseline only increases Rend damage, mobility, and dodge (not particularly helpful for this variation). Would it be possible to add a function to allow and edit boosts to Psi Offense? (or is there a way I can do that myself in the .ini?) I'm playing with mods that increase my max focus to 10, and I think that would add some fun dynamics to the gameplay with Focus fluctuations.

It does get stat bonuses from focus. It doesn't get any other benefits.

Does this class get stat bonuses from Focus? Increased damage on Soulfire or increased Psi Offense (a la Psionically Guided Bullets ?

I believe it would been badass if the templar have both all it ability and all the psi operative ability and I mean all. That is what I want.

Sweet thanks for the compatibility changes.

Updated! It is now compatible with No More Psi Amps.

As for compatibility with the No Psi Amp mod.


Did some testing last night and it doesn't seem to work on this class but it does for the Psionic class mod so I know it's not just a psionic amp wide issue.

I'll test to see if it's compatible with the no Psi Amp mod tonight as well as a couple psi related classes I was curious about.

Is this compatible with the No Psi Amp mod?

@PZ, Great mod! Any chance you would do a RPGO port? I'd really love to train soldiers with templar skills! Thanks!

Where is the "FavorNewClasses" line? Can't find it anywhere...

@EvilNecroid
No, you have to recruit one just like the normal templar.

can i train a rookie to be a psion?

Thanks for posting the solution for this bug. I got it too but didn;t realize it until late game. My templar says he's a templar but he has the psion abilities. I thought nothing of it but it was way later did I realize the problem. For some reason he had the auto pistol instead of the amp and it wouldn't let me change. Soulfire and Insanity weren''t doing any dmg or had very low %'s to land. I'm going to try the console command to adjust that. ty.
