Telepath help

[daken201]

I am playing a Telepath and was wondering if there is ANY way to get around the immunity to mind-effects that everything seems to have.

Nope. 

Long answer, if they have Mind Blank you can use Shatter Mind Blank but that's a rare case and requires an extra action and save. Have you considered, instead of running combat by Mind Controlling your enemies, bring your old enemies as allies into combat?

I have thought of that but the biggest problem i have is that undead, constructs, vermin, ooze's, and others that i am missing i am sure are just outright immune to it. and most of my damaging powers are mind effecting for some reason.
ahh well. i am gonna try to work with my dm on adapting the nightmare spinner to the enchantment and then replace all instances of enchantment with telepathy.

That's your problem. Buy a power stone of Psychic Reformation (or pay for Psychic Chirgury, research a power, etc), and pick up a couple of powers that are useful and aren't Mind Affecting. Astral Construct is a decent one.

I did a Nightmare Spinner re-write here. Feel free to use/adapt it if you want. And yes, CantripN is right: lingering enchantment is ridiculously good. Probably too good, but I don't really feel like writing up new mechanics.

Thanks a lot Echoes, This gives me a great base to start with.

only if you have a way to remove racial or class features. which does exist in at least one spot i can think of.

i suggest items with affects to help you, or alter your powers some.
