My rant about how the lettering for PSI is a nightmare. I know that it is just that the loop at the bottom of the letter was emphasised, but it still takes me a moment if it's been a while since I played EarthBound to recognise the symbol.īut there you go.

This can be done in many more tighter spaces like Saturn Valley, which is a pain to Teleport Alpha out of. greek/phoenician/etc counterparts, since certain previous symbols. Teleport Beta sends you round in circles, the circles getting progressively bigger yet not too large before shooting you off. Commissions are open, you can get any Earthbound characters and other subjects drawn. Alpha shoots you forward with the ability to turn, and you have to run for long enough to teleport, meaning it's darn-near impossible in tight areas. In EarthBound, PSI Teleport is only Alpha and Beta. These are organised by order of learning, which begs the question why do you learn Shield Beta (an objectively worse shield) after Sigma?Īnd then Other PSI is whatever the fuck it wants to be. PSI Shield Sigma for instance, applies to all allies and gives a shield of Beta power, with Beta only inflicting one ally. Most of this is Shields, which follow alpha-sigma-beta-omega with Sigma added is as a midpoint between alpha and beta. The same goes for status-inflicting PSI like Poo's Brainshock. Of course, these don't cost PP, that'd be stupid instead, Omega misses more often. So Magnet Alpha steals around 5 PP from a targeted enemy, whereas Omega from all enemies. The reason is that Magnet always steals PP, and enemies have a fixed PP value, so you can't up the PP stolen, because if an enemy only has 20 PP, using Magnet would just be obsolete after once. However, the PP-stealing Magnet is just Alpha and Omega. The HP-healing Lifeup and status-restoring Healing follow the same Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Omega. The first letter, the second, the third and the last as Omega is the most powerful. So in EarthBound, Attack PSI follows as such weakest Alpha, then Beta, then Gamma, then Omega. The pattern of Greek letters that PSI follow makes sense.Īt least, in EarthBound it does (we don't talk about Pi okay). ![]()
