Description
Ok so starting from the top:
Deimos sword cause I like its attack patterns, Deflector paired with Kinetic Deflection talent allows you to put all ranged or melee attack stamina hits to peril, letting you pick up downed allies better than ogryn. (reason for 30% revive speed).
Purgatus is for chaff clear, flak armor to deal better with flak enemies (a lot) because unarmored chaff enemies were going to die to it anyway, this just makes it do its job better. Faster charge speed also makes it do its job better.
Soul stealer, Quietude, Warp Expenditure and Battle Meditation are recommended at the top of talent tree, combusion is optional but I find it situationally useful for brainbursting elites/specials in a horde, before my purgatus gets to them.
Kinetic Resonance under BB is the first important talent, using your ult makes brain burst cost 50% less peril and charge 75% faster, you have 2 ults stored. If you have an elite killed you HAVE empowered psyonics (EP) active; meaning, your brainburst with EP does 100% peril cost reduction, 50% cast time reduction and does 50% more damage.
If you throw a shieldwall down to kill the elites in a room, your brain burst now charges 125% faster (75% KR + 50% EP) and does 50% more damage all for the low low price of 0 peril generation as long as you use it to kill elites which continues the empowered psyonics stacks.
125% charge speed roughly equates to about 1-1.3 seconds.
