Warhammer: Darktide is another entry to the Warhammer franchise. It is set in the 40k universe, where the world is futuristic, but the battles and monsters are barbaric still. You can choose between four classes, and one of those is the Psykinetic, which will be the main focus of todays guide. We will show you how you can do the leveling process, as well as show an endgame build that you can use when you reach the endgame. If you are interested in becoming a Psyker, then follow this guide to become the best Psyker you can be.
Psyker Leveling & Endgame Build – Warhammer Darktide
Endgame Build (Doctor Head Popper Build)
If you want to skip straight to the endgame build, then we got you. Here, we have the Doctor Head Popper Build. An endgame build that you can use when you reach the max level of the Psyker class. As the name suggest, you will be popping a lot of heads with this build. Here are the perks you need:
- Essence Harvest – Replenish 30% Toughness over 5 seconds on gaining Warp Charge.
- Wrack and Ruin – Killing an Elite or Specialist with Brain Burst applies 2 stacks of Soulblaze to all enemies within 3 meters of the target.
- Cerebral Lacerations – Damaging an Enemy with your Brain Burst ability causes them to take 15% Damage from all non Warp sources for 5 seconds.
- Kinetic Shield – Take between 10% and 33% reduced Toughness damage from Ranged Attacks based on your current member of Warp Charges.
- Kinetic Flayer – All attacks have 10% on Hit to Brain Burst the target. This cannot occur while at critical Peril, and has a cooldown of 15 seconds.
- Ascendant Blaze – Pyskinetic’s Wrath expends all Warp Charges and applies stacks of Soulblaze to Enemies Hit based on the number of Warp Charges expended. Enemies killed by your Soulblaze effects (from any source) have a 10% chance to grant you a Warp Charge.
Leveling Build
Moving on to the leveling build, which you will be using as you level up your Psyker, you will need the following perks:
- Quietitude – Replenish 10% Toughness for each 10% of Peril Quelled.
- Inner Tranquility – 6% Peril Resistance per Warp Charge.
- Cerebral Lacerations – Damaging an Enemy with your Brain Burst ability causes them to take 15% Damage from all non Warp sources for 5 seconds.
- Mind in Motion – Your Movement Speed is not reduced while Quelling Peril.
- Warp Battery – Can store up to 6 Warp Charges.
- Kinetic Barrage – For 10 seconds after using Pyskinetic Wrath, your Brain Burst charges 25% faster and consume 50% less Peril.
Weapon Choices
When selecting your weapons, you need to make sure your weapons go well together with your build. These weapons are selected because of that reason:
- Obscurus Mk II Force Sword
- Accatran Mk Vld Refcon Lasgun
