I know there was something in a recentish book about variant mystic adepts (with many other names) who gave up say conjuring or spellcasting. However I can't find the book and the information so rather than spending an hour or two hunting through all the books I figured I'd just ask. Can the variants who sacrifice something else e.g. conjuring astrally project or are they also bound the no projection rule?'

Oh and if someone remembers the name of the book (I thought it was shadow spells but I don't see it there) that would work too.

The book you are thinking of is Forbidden Arcana.

There isn't a "variant" mystic adept, but there are several new types of magical Talents: Apprentices (partial mages limited to a single school of magic, rather than just Spells/Conjuring), Explorers (only capable of Astral Perception and Projection), and the Aware (only Astral Perception).

None of the new aspects have access to Adept Powers, so they aren't Mystic Adepts.

You are probably thinking of how they tried to stealth Nerf mystic adepts by taking away the enchanting skill group but accidentally gave them astral perception instead.

That sounds like it.
