The most glorious melee psyker build to bring fiery death to all heretics. Leveraging the power of the Force Great Sword and Disrupt Destiny this build is a zealot main's dream psyker build.
The build uses Perilous Combustion, Wildfire, and Souldrinker from the talent tree along with Blazing Spirit on the sword to easily proc and spread soul flame to every enemy that gets near you. While this does add a small amount to your overall dps, that is not its purpose. The soul flame tics will be you main source of survivability by proccing Souldrinker giving you steady toughness regen andnnear constant extra 5% crit. The build has very high crit which feeds into Mettle and Empathic Evasion. This gives you steady toughness regeneration and makes you nearly invincible to ranged attacks while you have burning enemies to kill.
The best part is EVRYTHING BURNS! 🔥 🔥🔥
The shredder autobpistol brings high mobility and versatility to the build. You can use it to close gaps to ranged units safely, regen your toughness quickly, stagger and knockdown multiple enemies, and quickly kill any high threat targets that you don't want to melee.
The sword itself does really strong damage and annihilates everything short of monster class enemy units. Use the warp slice special liberally to stagger ranged threats and specials allowing you close the gap and finish them safely. This will also spread burns if you proc kinetic flayer and can be used through walls to do useful things like knock dogs off of teammates.
The push attack is incredible for pushing back poxbursters and setting up crushers and bullwarks for quick kills.
Rounding out the features of this build is Kinetic Flayer. It will often surprise you how useful this mostly throwaway talent can be. It is essentially a free kill on most specials and elites every 10 seconds whilen swinging your sword around and, when using the shredder, it will pleasantly surprise you quite often by instantly deleting your target.
The playstyle of this build should be to stay aggressively forward in melee as much as possible and use the warp slice special of the sword to gap close. Pull the gun out for mobility when sprinting or to get some emergency toughness regen. You will have little use for brain burst other than the odd sniper/bomber here and there or when you need to target an otherwise hard to hit enemy.
Stay in their faces, stay aggressive, and keep the fires burning 🔥🔥🔥
