correct: it actually says specifically it only paralizes arms and legs.

It actually says that someone that is paralyzed by this use of the power cannot speak.

where does it say that ?
RUE, page 177-178.
"note: a paralyzed character can still use psionics, but only if he has line of sight on his intended target. spell casters need to speak, so they cannot cast spells while paralyzed."

It's actually poor layout for a description: Specifically targets the arms and legs...but oh yeah, totally hoses you if you cast spells too.
The page break doesn't help either.

Yeah, like having the widest variety of long-range attacks isn't enough.

Looks like the Munchkin Fairy lost a few points on that one.

Believe not only person in armor, but power armor too correct?

According to
PU1, yes. IIRC in
Rifts you couldn't.

According to my unified metaphysics, you can affect people inside normal armor, but not power armor (too large and well-shielded for the aura to come through).

Spellcasting can still pose a problem, depending on the nature of the armor.
