OK, so I think I know how to roleplay. At the very least, I'm ready to give it a try. But how do I find someone(s) to roleplay with. Roleplaying alone gets old pretty quick. I know about Gemini Park on Virtue, but I'm looking more for someone to team up with for some IC crime-fighting. Do roleplayers use "Seek Team"? Should I go to a gathering of roleplayers (Gemini Park, for example) and ask if anyone can help me with a mission or say "I'm new to town, can someone show me around?"? Should I use an OOC broadcast asking for other RPers (seems paradoxical)? I suppose once I find a like-minded group, this won't be a problem, but for now it's annoying. All suggestions welcome.

The best summary of the psychic powerset I've seen. Wish I had this before I made my ff/psy guy, who now has four-slotted MB and Subdue.

Seconded.

Boy do I regret 5-slotting Mental Blast. At least I avoided Subdue.

At 18, Mental Blast and Psychic Lance are the only powers I've taken so far from this line. Stupid manual! I avoided TK Blast because I thought it was similar to Force Bolt from FF, which I relied on heavily for soloing the first levels (also 5-slotted; woe is me). Now that I have a better idea of what is going on and understand my team role better, I'm committed to the Fitness and Leadership pools for the next few levels. Can't wait to pick up TK Blast and Will Domination, though.

One comment on Lance. With Mental Blast as my only other offense, I rely on Lance a lot (pictures of round tables...). Fortunately, with Dispersion Bubble running and since I don't draw a lot of aggro, I rarely get interrupted even in the middle of a big battle. More often I waste it because someone else finishes off the mob before it fires (but that's rare too, just more common than being interrupted). This is also true when soloing. I'd say I get interrupted once every 20 times, if not less frequently. If I'm really concerned about being hit while Lancing, I put a mob on his back first with Force Bolt. And the range makes me the go-to guy for pulling. I get lot's of jealous comments about the range.

Thanks for the guide SoulHealer, even if a bit too late to help me avoid some early bad decisions.
