TNG didn't make the best use of Troi's powers.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Introduced in the first episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation, Counselor Deanna Troi had empathic abilities that proved to be vital for many missions aboard the USS Enterprise. Troi served as the ship's counselor aboard the Enterprise under the command of Captain Jean-Luc Picard .
Counselor Troi’s Betazoid Powers Eplained As a half-human half-Betazoid, Deanna Troi could sense the emotions of those around her. She could communicate telepathically with other Betazoids, such as her mother Lwaxana Troi , but her abilities were more limited than those of naturally telepathic full Betazoids. She may have been able to speak to Commander Riker telepathically because of the pair's closeness, but this ability only appears in TNG's pilot episode.
Why Star Trek: TNG Changed & Hardly Used Troi’s Powers The character of Deanna Troi was originally meant to be very intellectual and cerebral, with early concepts for the character even likening Deanna to Leonard Nimoy's Spock from Star Trek: The Original Series. However, over the course of TNG, Deanna Troi would become more the heart of the show than the brain.
