# Psyker (Fabric, 1.20.1)
### Impact: 2
> Playstyle differs noticeably from Human, but not by too much.
**TL:DR** - You know those squid guys from Larian Studios's hit game Baldur's Gate 3?
## Traits + Abilities:
### Atrophied (Passive):
> _You deal less weapon damage, and benefit less from armor._
- Attack Damage, Armor, and Armor Toughness are each reduced by 33%
- Projectile Damage (i.e: arrows, thrown tridents, etc.) is reduced by 20%
> _Your body cannot recover through natural means, only through psionics._
- You do not naturally regenerate health, and cannot be healed by the Regeneration potion effect
### Psyforce (Passive):
> _The source of your power. Maintain it at all costs._
- Running out of Psyforce will disable all of your other abilities until the meter fully refills (~20s without intervention), and greatly exhaust you.
- Killing an enemy with 8+ health or hitting a **Stunned** target will refill a small amount of Psyforce and double its regen rate for 2 seconds.
- You can cancel **Psionic Grasp** and **Mind Blast** prematurely with Save Hotbar Activator (default: 'c')
### Psionic Grasp (Active - Attack):
> _Strike a foe with an empty hand to subdue them with psionic energy._
- While restraining a target, you can trigger one of the following secondary effects with the Use key (1.5s CD between activations):
- **Psionic Crush:** Crush the grasped target, dealing 6 points of armor-ignoring damage to it.
- **Psionic Fling:** Launch the grasped target, applying a debuff to it and damaging anything caught in its path.
- Toggle between Crush and Fling using the Load Hotbar Activator (default: 'x') while you have nothing in your main hand.
- Can be ended by hitting the grasped target again, or by using Save Hotbar Activator (default: 'c').
- (Unlisted): A restrained target has greatly reduced Attack Damage and Attack Speed.
### Psionic Ward (Passive):
> _An adaptive barrier of psionic energy that twists to suit your every need._
- Cycle between one of three effects using the Load Hotbar Activator (default: 'x') key while you have something in your main hand and nothing in your offhand.
- **Mending:** While not taking damage for at least 1.5s, rapidly consume Psyforce to heal your wounds.
- **Intellect Fortress:** While using another ability (i.e: _Psionic Grasp_ or _Psionic Flight_), reduce all damage taken by 3 and potentially destroy incoming projectiles.
- **Synaptic Static:** Cloak yourself in a veil of psionic energy, making you much harder to detect (requires Pehkui for reduced mob detection), and granting you a 20% increase to movement speed.
- You can cycle in reverse by sneaking.
### Psionic Flight (Active - Jump):
> _Expel psionic energy to enter a state of suspended flight._
- In this state, the directional keys allow you to take more precise control of your movements.
- The Forward key allows you to ascend if you are looking upwards, and descend if you are looking downwards.
- Looking straight ahead will allow you to hover in place, but looking up or down will cause you to drift slowly in that direction.
### Mind Blast (Active - Primary):
> _Overwhelm your foes with raw psionic energy, damaging all enemies in a cone and potentially **Stunning** them for up to 4 seconds._
- A Stunned target cannot move, use items, or place blocks, and takes 75% more damage from any Psyker's attacks or abilities (though harming it will shorten the Stun duration).
- Can be cancelled during its windup animation with Save Hotbar Activator (default c)
# Notes:
To add this pack, navigate to your world folder, and find the 'datapacks' folder within it. Drag this baby in there and you should be all set to go.
### Known Issues:
- **Psionic Flight** is very similar to creative flight, but just different enough that it clashes with some anti-flying cheat detection software. You might need to be careful with how you use it if you plan on playing on a server with those kinds of features.
- **Scoreboards** can sometimes get set up incorrectly (or not get set up at all!). In that case, try running (or asking someone with operator permissions to run) the following command:
- ``` /function sapuspsychic:setup ```
- If that doesn't fix things, please DM me or create a thread in my Discord server, and I'll get to figuring it out as soon as possible.
