Maybe I’m just not evaluating the class properly, but the metamorph still seems bad?
There’s nothing to shore up its AC without also spending a psionic die, and despite being the melee fighting class who can cast a cantrip with an attack at level 5, they cannot use true strike with their organic weapons so they fall behind the bladesinger and valor bard pretty heavily. Personally, I’ve been hoping they would get primal savagery added to their list as a melee cantrip that could also trigger biofeedback.
I wonder if you’re supposed to be getting hit a lot and just generating lots of temp HP, but the features still feel to hungry for resources for a player to be comfortable with 15 AC and a bunch of temp HP.
EDIT: One thing I’m wondering is whether or not you can use the new version of telekinetic fling while “threatened” in melee. If there’s a rock 10 feet away from you and a guy standing between you and the rock, within 5 feet of you, can you fling the rock at the back of his head without disadvantage?
