I was checking out the psionics again after a long while, and the Soulbolt archetype stood out.

Any tips for building a competent Soulbolt? Feats? Traits? Blade skills? Items?

The pic I got the inspiration from:

First note, it is not a good idea to pick from that table. Most GMs won't allow it, for exactly the reason you have presented here: The +2 stat mods.

Made the changes (Race from Aasimar to Dwarf, some items and one trait).

More advice regarding Soulbolt builds? :smallsmile:
