This power requires a ranged touch attack to hit; If it succeeds, it deals 1d6 Psychic damage. Targets are allowed a Will save for half; Targets failing their saves are Dazed for one round.

However, it affects more mentally- and spiritually-active creatures more severely; If used against a target with the Psionic or Incarnum subtype(s), or against a creature with an Intelligence score of 20 or higher, the damage increases to 1d8, and on a filed save, the target is Stunned instead of Dazed.

However, likewise, those without minds escape the most of the effect. When used against targets with Intelligence scores of less than 5, the damage is reduced to 1d4, and they are not Dazed on a failed save. Mindless creatures are instead immune.


Augment: For every PP spent, the Psychic Blast's damage increases by 1 die. For every 2 PP spent in this way, the save DC increases by +1.
