Pros:
Quite comfortable with robots due to access to acid pistols with good fire rate.
Huge amount of crowd control. Stuns from electrokinesis, electrokinetic Imprint and taser. Chem guns, thought Control and throwing nets for your disposal for fearing, rooting and incapacitating.
Mobility is there: sprint + Psycho-temporal Contraction
Damage wise sword excels when there are stunned/rooted enemies for building momentum with flurry and onslaught.
High dex and int means easy times raising lockpicking, hacking and crafting.
Cons:
The build somewhat lacks the devastating crits of proper machete build, but opportunist with shield bash gives some +15% dmg compensation
Sweet +12% crit chance of recklesness+weapon smith will appear when game will be almost finished
The build comes to full strength somewhere after 20 lvl when you have enough dex and advanced catalysing belt.
Afterwords:
The reason of this build is to find use for Psychosomatic Predation, which is quite interesting spell with flavor in it, but still crappy due to long cooldown and hight ap cost. In general build tends to sacrifice damage for more crowd control options, but in case of swords I think its reasonable exchange.
