This build is disgustingly good for removing Elite enemies from the equation. The pairing of Overpowering Souls and Empowered Psionics gives you as many head pops as you want. With half the cast time, none of the peril and a 50% damage modifier on top for your trouble. Particularly helpful on Auric missions with a constant stream of gunners, ragers and don't forget those pesky snipers. You also have 10% chance for all kills to trigger a brain burst.
You're also no glass cannon by any means. The Voidstrike staff combined with Venting shriek, Creeping flames and Wildfire give you a severe capability to purge gargantuan amounts of heretics.
