I haven't locked how you'd actually get this unique melee weapon, but I AM thinking a Stormguard warrior would give it to you.

Unique items should be rewarded to players by fleshed out NPCs, meaning they should at least have names.

Also what would be the reason for this item to be psionically attuned and empowering?

I wanted to make an end-game kineticist weapon with a damage type(Electric) kineticists don't get access to with any of their class abilities, I fully intend for this to be paired with coldstar rings.

I wanted to make an end-game kineticist weapon with a damage type kineticist's normally never use, this is meant to pair with coldstar rings.

My first impression of this item is that it feels like something you wanted to have in the game for your own player character, without really considering whether it makes sense as an endgame drop.

Like, which enemy on Phaedra could realistically drop it, and which weapon manufacturer could have produced energy chainswords specifically for psykers in the past?
