Description

Hello, I'm nobody.

I wanted to share a build that I haven’t seen mentioned anywhere.
I believe this could be one of the most powerful builds in terms of crowd control and AOE damage, across all classes.

I’ve run it in Havoc 30 and ended up top damage in 3 out of 4 games.
In one game, I dealt 1.3M damage while the second highest was at 900K. I believe a skilled player in Havoc 40 could push it even further.

This build truly shines when facing massive enemy waves.

PROS and CONS
+ Best crown control in the game
+ Very good AOE damage (you won't get many elite/specialist kills, but you'll consistently top the damage charts)
+ Absolutely shreds hordes
- YOU'RE WEAK AF, not even Venting Shriek to give you breathing room. You must know how to dash-slide properly
- No Telekine Dome, which is one of the best Havoc abilities. Your team should bring another Psyker or a Veteran with smoke grenades
- Low damage against bosses

HOW DOES IT WORKS ?
Most of your damage comes from Smite empowered by Empowered Psionics.
The key is Scrier’s Gaze combined with Warp Unbound, which gives you unlimited Smite for 10 seconds.

Used properly, you can keep Smite going for ~16 seconds, with a cooldown of ~ 4 seconds (depending on the Psykinetic's aura and other cooldown reduction).
Occasionally, you can cast Scrier’s Gaze again just before Warp Unbound ends, extending your Smite window to ~28 seconds or more.

You can use any weapons you like, but I recommend:
A primary weapon that enhances your survivability
A secondary weapon that can quickly kill an elite to get Empowered Psionics stack

HOW TO PLAY ? 
Try to use smite only with a stack of Empowered psyonics
You don't need to aim and the APM is low, so optimise everything (dash-slide while smiting, understand how smite's focus/control/dmg works, position youserf well)
