Mostly just an observation I feel like sharing, because it caught me up as I was theorycrafting a Nomad->Elocator build. The Pathfinder version of Elocator waives the Spring Attack requirement if you have the Nomad's Step ability, but one requirement I kept missing as I was plotting out getting into Elocator at level 6 was that the PrC also has a +3 BAB prerequisite. Which a pure Psion doesn't get until level 6, meaning you can't enter Elocator until level 7. Given that they waived a feat requirement, I wonder if that was just to get it down to level 7 rather than 8. Especially since a human could meet the reqs even with Spring Attack still there.
Just a little odd. You can get in there with a multiclass of Nomad and 3 levels of PsyWarrior or one level of Soulknife or Aegis (or fighter, for that matter). Though the multiclass seems a bit sub-optimal, especially with the lack of any Practiced Manifester feat or equivalent for psions in PF. There's Scholarly Discipline, but that only works if you are a wizard/psion multiclass, and mixing wizard into this build just for the opportunity to get +2 manifester levels back is a terrible idea.
But since the +3 BAB requirement caught me by surprise, I thought I'd share.
