Mystic

[Vivid Extent]

Is it possible to get a Mystic class in the future?

[Razorblade]

No. There's no Mystic class in 5E DnD.

Its a game lol it doesn't have to follow 5E rules.

Sure it doesn't have to, but it does. Thus, no Mystic class.

Its a game where you use your imagination you can the rules say you can't "play" a mystic but at the end of the day the DM has the final word in whether or not you can.

In this case, Larian is the DM, and so far, the answer is no, and it's highly unlikely there ever will be officially, since WotC has largely scrapped the Mystic.

There's no reason they couldn't find a way to implement it though.

Not sure why you bothered asking if it's possible if you refuse to accept any answer other than "yes." Do you really think Larian is going to add a UA class that WotC doesn't even like enough to print? We're not even going to see most of 5E's subclasses in BG3, and a subclass is easier to implement than a brand new class. Your wish is a pipe dream, to be frank. If you're lucky, maybe some of the psionic sublclasses from Tasha's will make it into the game.

A question is a question I'd rather ask, and get a answer than stay shut and receive nothing.

Dude... They answered your question and your response was to just shrug it off and continue asking as if they didn't answer you.

Mystic is not an official class in 5e so the likeliness of it being added to BG3 is slim to none. Probably less than 0.0001% to 0%. This isn't Roll20 where you have live DM that may or may not give you the chance to play an UA 5e class.

If you want you can ask Larian when they have a live Q&A if there is a chance where they may include one, or you can wait for when the game goes live and someone makes a mod for one. Otherwise you got your answer.

Bottom line is that if it ain't in the players hand book it will not be in the game. Sven has said that the characters in the PHB 5E will be in BG3.

what exactly is a mystic to you TC? do you have some kind of example?

You can probably eventually add one via a Mod once the game is released, or at least, someone may attempt to do so.

To be honest, a lot of existing assets can probably be leveraged to make "a" Mystic available, although probably not like how it was in UA before it got removed. Especially since a lot of the abilities the Mystic had were actually quite CRPG friendly to implement, and in BG3s case, can actually be seen semi-implemented for something else already.

The main thing, is that it won't be as diverse as how it was in UA, but most likely a build that makes the most of what is suitable and compatible between UA and BG3.

I remember when I was taught to play and it was just a Psionicist but yes, I agree it will most likely be a mod once the final version is released and those wonderful modders get to work

Mystic wouldn't fit the game anyways...

The Mindflayer Tadpole completely loses all of its purpose when you just straight up have psionic abilities xD

[NixAhmose]

No. Even ignoring that Larian is likely only going to do phb classes(so no artificer either) Mystic is very unlikely to make it in considering it was never made official. While it was in the works, the balancing of it was really bad and Wizards decided to just scrap the idea of having a psychic based class in favor having psychic based subclasses and feats for existing classes.
