If its between those two, Psy. Broken Proc > Sonic.
^
Also if it's for sirens i would go psy over sonic on the basis psy blast is faster and won't root you as much as sonic. Lots of stalkers in sirens, the last thing you want is to be rooting around them 
I have a sonic blaster and personally i find it very boring, it's slow and lacks that nice fluent chain that psy blast has. Imo.

Thanks again.
I'll go against the grain and say sonic. Sure, you can rely on the broken proc, but I feel sonic's -res really fits well with /devices. You get no BU, so the -res really helps to put out a lot of damage fast. Get 2-3 attacks on someone, and your shout will put out damage as if you just used BU.
/dev playstyle is more "over time" than /EM. It's not so much about spikes, more about wearing your target down, while they're semi-helpless from being webbed. And here sonic shines. Not only are you doing more damage with each attack due to defiance, you're doing A LOT more, due to the -res on top of it.
Can't go wrong with psy obviously though.

Well I guess how does Psychic/ hold up if/when the broken proc gets fixed? Does sonic/ come out on top then?

I would say sonic ends up the winner if the proc gets fixed.

my vote goes to sonic/dev. its not hard to get around the rooting vulnerability with a well placed caltrops(tbh i prefer sonic's rootings to psi's, but thats preference). also, any SO build can chain shriek and scream indefinately with hasten. ive gotten kills just using those 2 from decent range while my target is webbed.
just remember, if youre just building for sirens and dont intend to level to 50 you cant slot the placate proc in will domination anyway.
Did some pvp today in Sirens on my Fire/Regen Scrap and noticed a few devices blasters that seem to do decently.
So, I'm going to roll yet another pvp toon to keep me busy till GR.
Psychic/Devices or Sonic/devices? I havent done devices in forever, but seems like it would be fun in Siren's Call. Does they -res in Sonic make it more worthy then Psychic and its ability to slot the Placate Proc?
Anyway im up for whatever suggestions you have. Let me know what you guys think between those two, and thanks in advance!
