Alright so you asked for a review, for one this looks pretty promising. There are a few issues though, let's start with the following in spending your pain points:

  • No such thing as a vile bonus, might be a mistake I made in my own class though. The word is profane. It's a very minor issue.
  • Recovering Power Points is a bad idea, being a daily mechanic. Maybe cap the maximum amount of pp you can regain per day? (I appear to have done so in my own tormentor, I should also put a limit on that)
  • Increasing your manifester level should be limited as well, right now it make the wilder green with jealousy.

More later but right now I need to get dinner. --Leziad (talk) 22:55, 11 October 2015 (UTC)

Alright, the only issues I can see are the two powers I outlined above. Since it's impossible to limit power points in the same way I did with spell slots, there is a lesser-known rule that could be useful for you: Temporary Power Points. TPP don't stack together, they overlap. I do not remember where they are from, however. --Leziad (talk) 23:13, 11 October 2015 (UTC)
Using pain points to recharge power points is a core feature of the class; the tradeoff is that the mindbreaker's power point pool is much smaller than that of other full manifesting classes, like the psion and wilder. I reduced the size of the power point pool just in case that wasn't clear enough. I also reduced the duration of the manifester level boost. --Luigifan18 (talk) 14:20, 12 October 2015 (UTC)
Duration is not the problem, wilder has it as the next power they manifest. With psionic you can augment powers way beyond their normal range, like turn dominate person into dominate monster. I'd recommend limiting the manifester level boost to up to 1/3rd of your class level. --Leziad (talk) 14:40, 12 October 2015 (UTC)
All right, I'll do that. --Luigifan18 (talk) 15:36, 12 October 2015 (UTC)
