This is interesting, and a vastly powered up version of my own skin of the construct variant feat, but sadly it's way overpowered, even for a VH feat.

It's a host of really great benefits and powers all wrapped into one without even having to expend your psionic focus or pay additional power points.

I don't agree that it is beyond VH. The effect only lasts as long as a normal construct. It isn't separate from the manifester like a normal construct, instead basically being armor, thus no additional actions are gained. At base its a level 1 construct, so more power points have to be pumped in to get greater effects, just like the construct power. The main benefit to the feat is providing power armor that shields the manifester until its hit points run out, then it fails. The listed menu picks are physical or movement based, and limited in number by how many power points you spend to increase construct level. While the construct lasts the manifester gains (likely) better AC and the shield, but isn't protected fron attacks that don't do direct psyical damage. If you really look it over I believe you won't find it as all encompassing as you thought. Elohim (talk) 12:42, 4 February 2017 (MST)

Does the construct still have its own set of actions while you're inside of it? Dvtrex$ (talk) 3:05, 17 February 2017 (CT)
No, it functions as powered armor in a sense. Elohim (talk) 16:07, 17 February 2017 (MST)
