Question

-Do Metapsionic Feats work with Aegis Energy Blast, Improved Ranged Attack, & Empowered Blast suit mod?

• Aegis' Energy Blast seems to emulate Energy Ray power. Are the following Metapsionic Feats applicable to it?....
• Empower Power
• Maximize Power
• Twin Power
• Quicken Power
• Split Psionic Ray

Answer 1

While similar to energy ray, none of the aegis energy blast customization is not energy ray, nor any other psionic power. The aegis suit, along with its customizations, is a supernatural ability.

Note that the ranged customizations were intentionally on the low-power side. The author (who I have spoken with on this topic) said this was done because the aegis is “supposed to be” melee-oriented.
