"Pathetic, you will have to try harder than that."
You infuse your arm with ki and then karate chop a ki-based or magical attack away. This counter allow you to make an opposed initiator level roll against a foe's caster level, manifester or initiator level to deflect an incoming line, cone or ray. If you succeed you harmlessly deflect the attack away, although certain type of attack react differently.
Cone: You spit the cone in two smaller cone that avoid your square but otherwise continue on.
Fireball-like Spread: You redirect the spread anywhere within range, as long as it at least 100 ft away from you and the originator of the attack.
Line: You chop the line away, redirecting it up to 90 degree away where it continue it effect as normal,
Ray: You harmlessly deflect the ray away, if you beat the originator by 10 or more you may redirect the ray against him using the same attack bonus.
At the GM's discretion other effects may be redirected as well, you automatically know before using this maneuver if you can or cannot deflect a particular effect. If you fail to deflect the blast you forfeit any Reflex that would normally be allowed against the attack, you are still allowed any other saving throws as normal.
This power is unable to deflect any effect which has been "charged" for more than 1 round, such as a charged anima explosion.
