Scrier's Gaze is an unhinged active ability

Pretty accurate, if Smite was redesigned it could also be a much more versatile group support Blitz as an alternative to shield, so Psykers could go Gaze and still provide meaningful contribution in higher difficulties.

Smite would now:

Stagger distant Gunner groups for teammates to close the gap.

Stagger Bosses for teammates to revive downed players

With Empowered Psionics it would:

Debuff initial targets with 40% increased damage from all sources

Stagger Ogryns for the full duration of Electrocution (8s)

With Enfeeble it would:

Debuff enemies with Electrocution status effect, reducing their attack speed hy 25% and increasing weakspot damage they take by 15%
