Coming soon. In the meantime, you can share any tips and lore about the Psion in here, and it will be inserted in the main article. Thanks for uploading a picture !

Character Introduction

Psions are men and women who are specially trained to use the powers of the mind. They are chosen for power, intelligence and sensitivity. Lui Ling is a military psion, assigned by Sol Force to track down and recover the missing scientist Tamiko Hoshinara, who is believed to possess unusual abilities by the high command.

General tips

  • The Psion starts with an incredibly high melee skill. It's entirely possible to get through the early using only your fists and TK thrust, allowing you to save some durability on your gear. You can also forego armor for a while, using Psi Armor and Heal to stay topped off - not hard considering most enemies don't hit very hard on the top floors.
  • With a might stat of 30, Psions are very susceptible to disease - which can be fatal if they can't fight it off. Early on be wary of disease carrying monsters like the Giant Virus and Rabid Bat, and consider raising your Might stat or Redaction skill to unlock Cure.
  • Monsters that drain psi points are particularly dangerous, and can render a psion helpless if they aren't dealt with quickly. Watch out for monsters from the Leech family in particular.
