Hello there, this is my first build posted here. I main Psyker and Zealot and cooked this one up for fun.
Build strategy:
Spam assail till 90% peril and go in with Scryer's Gaze. Dodge the big swings from Maulers and Crushers to maximize crits on your sword. Shoot any unyielding enemies in the head with laspistol as well as bombers and snipers, dodge bosses to crit with it. Alternative attack on sword is great to clear out some horde but do not rely on it, it's better to throw some assail. That said, peril should always be around 90% to maximize damage. Laspistol has a force push on alternative - DO NOT SLEEP ON IT. It can save you from death if used correctly, adjust pushing back poxbombers from your teammates to save them. Overall, you are best in close quarters so it takes some time to use to dodging.
Melee weapon variants:
- If your team needs consistent cleave to clear out hordes rather than powerful piercing attack, you may switch to Mark VIII sword as it has better potential of doing that. Would suggest to switch out Shred for more cleave and change to do more Soulblaze.
- If you rather stick to killing specials, you definitely should use mark VI sword as it has a piercing heavy dealing massive damage.
Laspistol variants:
- I wouldn't recommend other mark since the damage is significantly lower. However, you may tweak what the pistol does.
- Wanna shoot more to eliminate ranged? Switch Dum Dum to Concentrated fire
- Not comfortable with Crits and you prefer Weakspot damage? You may add Raking Fire to the combo and switch for Ranged Weakspot DPS.
- Wouldn't recommend putting Infernus since melee weapon does not put any other stacks like bleed. Unless of course, you are switching to Soulblaze.
Curios:
- This curio setup gives you 205 HP which is enough to live through a poxbomber direct hit and 1 big Mauler hit. Wouldn't go less than that.
- If you dodge like a pro, you can add something else for toughness regen.
- You generally don't need ability cooldown. You will constantly have max peril which means you do a lot of damage more. Use the ability to further it, but it's not like you rely solely on it.
