Description

Divider

This build is designed to support the Rifthaven Inferno Force Staff Psyker.

Strategy Based on Peril Levels

  • Low Peril:
    • Use Smite for crowd control.
    • Utilize Bubble for zone control.
  • High Peril:
    • Target weak spots with the Deimos Force Sword until you clear the peril, then switch back to Smite.

Havoc Performance

In Havoc, your quell rate is 85% slower. To maximize your usage of Smite, you should incorporate the following talents and blessings:

  • By Crack of Bone (Talent): Reduces peril by 5% on weakspot (WS) kills.
  • Exorcist (Blessing): Reduces peril by 5% on chained WS hits.
  • Battle Meditation (Talent): Grants a 10% chance to reduce peril by 10% on kills.

While at high peril, your melee effectiveness is enhanced by these talents:

  • Wrap Rider: Increases damage by 20%.
  • Wrap Splitting: Adds 100% cleave.
  • One with the Warp: Provides a 33% chance to reduce toughness damage.

Why No Staff? Why No Kinetic Deflection?

Your peril is reserved solely for Smite. If you use it for shooting or blocking, you delay the timing and duration of your next Smite. Additionally, if you employ non-wrap ranged attacks, you'll also gain passive quell while using it.

Why Bolt Pistol?

This choice is based on personal preference. You can select a non-wrap ranged weapon that you are most comfortable with. Just remember, the primary purpose of the bolt pistol is to take down dangerous specialists.
