Duelling sword

OK, yeah that does sound less scary to mix with Scrier’s Gaze than the Force Sword. Wait… I just realized my favourite Psyker melee weapons are both the Mk IVs 
aside from this i would like to see the old psychic push from force swords, not many people remember, but the push attack’s push of the obscurus used to feel heavenly
it got changed, normalized like all the damnable weapons of this game, the push effect reduced so much its barely noticiable and the peril on the second push got lowered, or outright removed, to ‘‘balance’’ it with the other weapons
every time a weapon has something unique, it has to be stripped away and rebalanced so that everything perform the same as power knife
power sword unlimited cleave on special activation
psychic sword unlimited dodges
psychic sword push attack’s push got basically removed
power maul room stun with the heavy specials got nerfed aswell
the inbuilt run’n gun from laspistols got removed aswell
what else?
everything that contributes to make the game fun keeps getting removed, god only knows who will be the next victim

Which closed beta?
back in 1y and 3months?
you talking about the ulti that insta save you from reaching 100% peril?
you talking about the ulti that gave stacks of soulblaze/blue flame DoT?
saying psyker underloved and comparing it to sharpshooter…
I agree. It just feels weird. Also psyker needs love )=

I’m convinced that my VoC Vet is actually a Latent Psyker, fr.
The one that knocked down a whole horde. God I miss it, with that and a force sword the tele-kinetic really FELT kinetic. The force sword’s stun/push was also nerfed pretty bad, though it’s okay on pushing a single target.
Then they nerfed the whole class into the ground and it’s never been quite right since, even if you can make it perform well in other ways with a lot of work.
But to take the psyker’s nerfed ult and give the un-nerfed version to the vet feels like a real slap in the face to the class.

Let’s just agree that the venting shriek does a poor job at pushing, and improving that, +adding a talent that improves it more, would not make it OP, but certainly make it more fun.
As for pushing in general? Seems like, again, a good place for an Optional Talent that allows improving pushes for peril. Same with dodge.

I’d agree with that.
But it’s still baffling why.
I don’t know why they seem to mistreat this class so. There’s a lot of powerful builds in the game and powerful weapons, but there’s an undercurrent of trying to force things into playstyles or patterns that are just weird and it shows on the psyker most.
Psykinetic should be the absolute master of knocking people down and throwing things and pushing… and it was in closed beta. …And was nerfed into the ground and then beaten and set on fire… only the be brought back on a totally different (and mildly inappropriate) class!
I’d really like to know what they are thinking. "Oh, pushing people as the kind of psyker who pushes things is too op… so no pushing. We are going to removing pushing from the push-master.
HEEEEEEEEY! You know what would be cool? PUSHING. Let’s let the vet push down a large group."
!!! MAKE IT MAKE SENSE???
its also funny that the vet has the power to see through walls (well, certain enemies) and help others on the team see through walls with one of their powers, because thats like a perfect power for a psychic to have too
Eh, veterans don’t need a talent to make their shout push so hard, I don’t think psykers should either.
I very much want a Talent that allows me to yeet a Crusher Patrol against the nearest wall, though.
And ideally knock back grenades, too.
Agreed.
I really miss being able to knock guys around as psyker, because it was just plain FUN.
I’d like to see the cooldown reduced a fair amount, so I could knock people flat on a regular basis, but that of course assumes I’m able to do it in the first place… Really one of the least advisable nerfs in the whole game, and that’s really saying something.
I think we all want to see psyker mentally fling a group of pox walkers against a wall.
