The above text is the RAW on being forced out of physical contact. I'm thinking of making a technique for my game (I am the GM) for Telepathy skills (maybe all of them, maybe only specific ones) that would allow the person who has been forced out of physical contact to immediately reestablish contact mentally and remain a part of the gestalt. My only question is how bit of a penalty should I think of applying to the skills for such a talent.
