I would like to see some version of the level 5 arcane spell telekinesis added to the game that would allow caster to do things like open doors and throw levers or switches from a distance.

I'd like it too, but someone would then complain that casters are overpowered............again! :rolleyes:Quote:

Maybe rather than throwing switches, a good use for the telekinesis spell would be to move mobs. Though, with the speed of combat, it would require a LOT of practice to master.
Why not make a whole new Arcane PrE entitled Scion of Bigby? Too Greyhawky? ;)

Telekinesis in the game is used by some (beholders, abbot) to fling us around. I would thoroughly enjoy a spell that comes in two versions: pull and push.
Edit: Probably exploitable as hell though, just like Gust of Wind was in PnP. "Hey look, a cliff!"
