On nearly all of my playthroughs I've not even bothered with psi. Hacker soldier hybrid class spec for me.

I never touch Psi if I'm doing single-player, but I tend to do it for Coop. Going invisible and hacking turrets can be a huge help in a few places.

I found the psi useful when playing Impossible + mods making each and every aspect harder.
Damage reduction and damage shields are key to survival.

Psi is very useful for a hacker. I always use a combination of Navy/OSA.

PSI is useful for anybody but it costs a shitload of CM. On Impossible you can't afford it 99% of the time.

Tier 1 Psi is relatively cheap and you can get the Cyber enhancing ability, which is invaluable for hacking.

yes that is really invaluable, what ever this means!

Please keep yourself restrained to the loony bin (i.e. your ShockCfg3 blog).

save your cyber modules for the Assault Rifle, which you want to be good at more than everything else.
Hacking, obviously, is also extremely important for your chosen path.
be good at these two and you'll be fine.

I remember once trying to go Standard 6 on Impossible and in the end decided it's simply not worth it. Getting anything past 4 on Impossible is just burning your CMs. Getting Standard from 4 to 6 costs over twice as much CMs as getting it from 0 to 4!

All Cyber Affinity is good for is reducing the number of ICE Nodes, really, since the difficulty bonus is pathetic compared to raw Hack and Hack Soft bonuses. ICE Nodes aren't usually a problem because you can just re-roll the hack minigame if you have nanites to burn, and you always have nanites to burn.
Getting Cyber Affinity from 1 to 3 is cheaper than getting first PSI tier and the Psychogenic Cyber-Affinity anyway. And it's permanent. I guess after you get C-A to 3 you could take the Psychogenic Cyber-Affinity since it's cheaper than getting the stat to 4, but only if you REALLY hate ICE Nodes...
