RPG Overhaul - Psionics Specializations Extended

This mod is an extended version of Ash's mod RPG Overhaul - Psionic Specializations.

It adds three new specializations for Musashis RPG Overhaul and 14 new abilities, including 5 from Iridar's mod [WOTC] More Psi Abilities, 7 brand new custom Starting Abilities (aka Squaddie perks) for RPG Overhaul, 1 brand new custom Brigadier rank ability for the Telepath specialization and the Bastion perk from Long War 2.

• Three new specializations with 7 Psionic abilities each.
  
• 7 new RPGO Starting Abilities specifically for psionically gifted soldiers. These work with Psionic Abilities from many other mods.
  
• T1 Psi Amps available from campaign start.
  
• Psi Amps are given a +50 Psi Offense boost to make up for the RPGO Soldier's nonexistant psi stat.
  
• All biotic abilities can be used with Psi Amps as well.
  
• Supports RPGO's new Random Classes SWO

• Psionic Conduit: Activate to make the next Psionic ability a free action. Each time Psionic Conduit is activated, the soldier's Will is reduced by 10. When the soldier's Will falls below 50%, Psionic abilities deal 50% reduced damage and Psi Offense is reduced by 33%.
  
• Unstable:The soldier deals 50% increased damage with offensive Psionic abilities, but using an offensive Psionic ability has a 25% chance to make them panic.
  
• Psionic Atrophy: Increases Psi Offense by 15 and grants immunity to Psionic damage and Mental effects. Damage taken from all other sources is increased by 33%.
  
• Battle Meditation: Hunker Down increases your Psi Offense by 10 and your Will by 10 for 2 turns.
  
• Mind Over Matter: Whenever this soldier takes damage, the cooldowns of their Psionic abilities are reduced by 1.
  
• Spirit Thief: Killing a psionic enemy increases Psi Offense by 15 and damage dealt with offensive Psionic abilities by 50% for 2 turns.
  
• Open Mind:Increases Psi Offense by 25 but reduces Will by 10.

All values can be adjusted in the configuration files of Bstar's Perk Pack.

To prevent situations where you have Psi-related Starting Abilities on soldiers without Psi-related specializations, I highly recommend picking an appropriate combination of SWO.

This mod is incompatible / will not work correctly with:

• [WoTC] XCOM Psi Overhaul

This mod makes the following mods obsolete and you can and should remove/uninstall them:

• RPG Overhaul - Psionic Specializations
  
• Starting PsiAmps

This mod should work correctly with and I recommend the following mods:

• RPG Overhaul - Templar Disciple Specialization

The Starting Abilities added by this mod should work with abilities added by:

• Biotic Class Redux
  
• [WOTC] More Psi Abilities
  
• Mitzruti's Perk Pack and the class mods that depend on it.
  
• Others will be added over time.
  
• More can easily be added in the configuration files of the mod Bstar's Perk Pack.

• There may be some mod-added Psionic abilities that don't work with the Starting Abilities added by this mod. If you find any, please report it in the appropriate thread.
