Description
Work in Progress
This build is meant to provide plenty of damage & survivability, while providing support to teammates. If an existing build is similar to this, or exact I apologize and had no idea. Just new to the game and want to provide a good support build for Psyker.
Damage Dealing
The primary way you deal damage will be through Soulblaze stacks. Your Staff will be the primary form of doing this. You want to prioritize the Burn, & Cloud Radius stats to 80. Damage can be under 80 if need be, but you want to keep it over 67% if possible. Secondary ways to generate Soulblaze will be with your abilities. The MK VI Blaze Force Greatsword will help as well with the Blazing Spirit blessing. However this may be swapped out for Wrath to improve your cleave damage. As you pop your combat ability you can cast your head pop on elites nearby fast. This will help build some soulblaze stacks on enemies nearby. In addition you can allow your teammates to kill enemies impacted by Soulblaze as it would just spread to others nearby.
For tougher enemies, or elites in Carapace. Your Great sword & blitz will be your best options for taking them down. Additionally, your blitz will be your main long range killing option.
Survivability
The Psyker is just naturally a very squishy class to play. Combined with peril management, naturally low toughness, & low wounds you can go down easily. This build will allow you to generate toughness through your kills, Shield, & by both generating & quelling peril. As the Psyker has a low toughness cap. This will allow you to keep replenishing that bar.
Team Support
With an increased Coherency range, you can better provide buffs to teammates. While inside coherency, teammates will receive a 7.5% buff to damage, & a 4% Ability cool down reduction when killing an elite or specialist enemy. They can also benefit from your combat ability. The Shield will not only protect them from incoming damage. But so long as they stay in the bubble, they will be within coherency range, & generate toughness.
