Q167: I see in a few threads people raving about how AWESOME Telekinesis is, so... how awesome is it, and why? Just for the combat maneuvers it offers?
Best blasting in core no questions asked. Possibly one of the best in all of 3.5e.
throwing weapons coated in poison is ridiculous. And if you chain it? You can get 40 Full round attacks or some shit like that. Ask TML.
Basically, if you just want to use telekinesis and no other spells, Master Of The Unseen Hand lets you full attack with BAB=CL for any telekinetic wielded weapon by concentrating on it. Chain telekinesis gets you up to 21 wielded weapons, which all can make full attacks as a standard action.
You can use this to spam a bunch of low-dc effects like poison or whatever. Quantity has a quality of its own.
Or just use violent thrust, and hit your opponent with a no-save faerie fire (CSco bug paste), no-save blindness (dust grenades, OA), no-save entanglement (tanglefoot bag), and then twelve colossal weapons of your choice.
If you have sneak attack damage, violent thrust is also a cool way to get a fifteen times multiplier.
