Pyro & Psychokino's Synergy

I had some time to look into the synergy, but I was wondering to people who had chosen either of these classes to say what people thought of it, or if the combination is beyond too mana-guzzling or unfriendly for people/parties due to Linker meta?

An example of what I’d do. It’s essentially an alternative disciplined in doing both DPS and having good crowd control.

Because of Fireball being counted as an ‘enemy’ unit, Psychokino can interract with it quite well.

  • When hit by Psychic Pressure, the Fireball will send out an decent ranged AoE firespin.
  • Telekinesis can grab a fireball and preserve it, then toss it ontop of an enemy, both doing Fireball’s on-hit damage and Telekinesis damage portion.
  • While harder to do, Magnetic Force and Gravity Pole probably also has interraction with Fireball as well as even Flame Ground. Dragging and pulling enemies onto your AoE is both beneficial for you and your party.
  • Flame Enchant for that little bit of extra damage.

Featherfoot because you’ll actually end up more frontal than you realize, and you may make mistakes and get hit. Healing is nice. Healing others is also nice.

Is it worth doing in some people’s eyes?

Pyro kino is really good. But as a psyokino c3, I’ll tell you, there’s no reason to go c3. Every skill besides psychic pressure, swap vs bosses, and telekinesis is garbage. Magnetic Earth isn’t worth ever using, and gravity pole isn’t very useful, especially for a c3 skill. These 3 skills that are worthwhile, you get at circle 1 of psychokino.

The reason c2 is worth it: Psychic pressure gets a stun attribute, and effectively stun locks enemies for the entire duration.

So imo, pyro kino is good, kino c3 replace with something else. Maybe cryo for icewall psychic pressure?

Does the pyroball still move if hit by psychic pressure?

Yea. Need to position it against a wall or a boss.

Or Joint Penalty the Fireball to some monster. Place two fireballs, link them to a boss and face a direction such that the fireballs will move towards the boss as you Pressure the boss.

Assuming you want a PVE build

@zhouyu47 Fair enough. I remember getting that ability enhancement and found myself loving the skill even more. I never went C3, but I guess the scaling is high enough to invest into another class altogether. Theory-crafting ahoy~

@Loztchild Yes. This would be my mage who’d be dedicated to PvE, generally being an AoE Menace while looking cool. There’s tons of benefit that come with Linker, but I wanted to see if one could make alternatives that could at least compete with it. However, with research and theory-crafting, I end up coming back to Linker indefinitely. It just has incredible syngery to not only the Pyromancer in general, but also to party mates and general C1 superiority.

I wouldn’t really call Psychokino a PvE class, outside of the combo.

I mean, you have a stun/tiny aoe, a single target long stun, an escape and another escape.

i remember trying Wiz> Pyro> Linker and not liking it. It takes way too much mp and not much damage and no point in linking except for lvl 50 dungeon. bosses r awfully slow to kill. only exception is if u always have a party.
Wiz> pyro> pyro> Linker
Wiz> cyro> psycho> cyro/psycho (seems linker isnt as useful here)
