Notes
- Normally, this reaction can counter a spell of up to level 4 since that is the usual maximum proficiency bonus. However, on Explorer difficulty, the proficiency bonus of all characters is increased by 2. This means Psionic Dominance can counter up to level 6 spells on Explorer difficulty, including when enemies use it against the party. Custom difficulty offers a slider to adjust the proficiency bonus which has the same effect.
