💔 As a die-hard Baldur's Gate 3 fanatic who's poured 500+ hours into Faerûn, I'm absolutely DEVASTATED that we'll never experience the Psion class in Larian's masterpiece! When Wizards of the Coast dropped their Unearthed Arcana playtest for this mind-blowing psychic warrior in early 2025, I literally screamed at my monitor - because it's THE PERFECT missing puzzle piece for BG3's mind-flayer-infested universe! How could fate be so cruel to tease us with this revolutionary class just months after Larian announced they're abandoning DLC? It's like finding your soulmate... at their wedding... to someone else! 😭

🧠 What Makes the Psion So Unbelievably Perfect?

This isn't just another spellcaster - it's a psychic TSUNAMI that would've drowned BG3 in awesomeness! Let me break down why it's game-changing:

  • Brain-Melting Mechanics: Unlike any class in BG3, it uses Intelligence-based psychic powers fueled by Psionic Energy Dice (think Wizard meets Monk on cosmic steroids!)

  • Subclass Variety That Dwarfs Mount Everest:

| Subclass | Playstyle | BG3 Synergy |

|----------------|----------------------------|---------------------------|

| Metamorph | Melee bruiser/healer hybrid | Perfect for tadpole corruption RP! |

| Psi Warper | Teleportation chaos master | Would DOMINATE vertical combat maps |

  • Movement GODHOOD: While my poor Wizard tripped over roots, Psions would've been TELEPORTING through the Shadow-Cursed Lands like interdimensional acrobats!

⚡ Thematic Perfection We'll Never Taste

Can you IMAGINE facing the Absolute's psionic horrors AS a psionic demigod? The narrative parallels are torture-level tantalizing! BG3's entire plot revolves around:

  • Mind flayers drilling into cerebellums 🐙

  • Tadpoles whispering sweet nothings in your grey matter

  • Elder Brain puppet-mastery

Playing a Psion would've been the ultimate power fantasy - turning the villains' OWN WEAPONS against them! Instead of begging for Illithid powers, we could've been BORN with them! Why, Larian, WHY?!

📊 Why BG3's Roster Is CRYING for This Class

Let's get brutally honest about BG3's class imbalance:


1. 🧙 Only ONE pure Int-based class (Wizard) in entire game!

2. 🤯 Psion offers Bard-like versatility with psychic flavor

3. 💥 Fills HUGE design gap: Wizards = book nerds vs Psions = COSMIC GLADIATORS

Remember struggling with Intelligence checks as a Barbarian? Psion would've made INT builds SEXY! Now we're stuck with Wizard or... more Wizard. Sobs dramatically

🕒 The Tragic Timing That Shattered Dreams

Here's the gut punch: Wizards of the Coast waited until AFTER Larian moved on to unveil this masterpiece! Even if they'd released it during BG3's support window (2023-2024), adding a whole class takes MONSTROUS effort:

  • Balancing 30+ psychic abilities? Good luck!

  • Avoiding overlap with tadpole powers? Nearly impossible!

  • Recording 500+ new voice lines? Forget it!

But let's be real - we'd have gladly traded Patch 8's subclasses for THIS glorious psionic revolution!

🌈 The Modding Miracle We MUST Demand

All hope isn't lost, fellow addicts! Larian blessed us with god-tier modding tools. So here's my battle cry:

UNLEASH YOUR INNER PSION! If brilliant modders can turn dragons into Thomas the Tank Engine, they CAN graft this psychic marvel into BG3! I'm already donating to every "Psion Conversion" Patreon I can find! Will you join this glorious uprising? 💪

What are you waiting for? Grab your keyboard, pester modders, and let's WILL this class into existence! Or are you content watching this dream DIE?! 🔥
