Gloomfang, enfeeble is insane ESPECIALLY for assault lists. A Trygon (our any t6 model) can wade in to unit of enfeebled space elves / IG and not even get hurt, or an iron arm Tervigon, hive tyrant, swarmlord, or broodlord (on a 3+ for BL) vs MEQ. If your mixing it up in CC enfeeble gets that much better.
Enfeeble is simply the king of synergy. I run biomancy everywhere in hopes of spamming this. My opponents hate me. You think OM is in the verge of broken... trust me you will mulch people when you are casting it on everything that moves. And I have to remind people all the time that enfeebled units treat everything as difficult terrain. Aside from the obvious benefit of slowing your opponent to a crawl in an edition where movement wins and loses games, it can also be hilarious on jumpers or anything else your forcing dangerous checks on.
Life leech is just a handy wound recoup if you need it in a pinch.
The power of endurance doesn't need defending, and more often than not better than dome, even for smaller stuff (cover is your friend, I'll take 5+ 5+). Plus it's just boss on our MCs, especially with IWND.
Hemorrhage is plain awful, no doubt, even vs t3 your lucky to kill more than two models with it.
Warp speed is a bit situational. But when your ready to slam crushigon in to the foe, I can't count how many failed charges I have when she doesn't have fleet. and an additional 2d3 strength 10 attacks.... eesh. Just wish fleet conferred to the squad and it would make swarmy a little more beast mode. This would also be better if you could cast it on friendly units... definitely a waste when a zoanthrope rolls it.
Look I was on the TK/TP bandwagon when the cool kids were poo pooing biomancy because it was the obvious pick. As I started to actually play test the different disciplines I realized there is just too much (please do not swear) in TK, and TP has a two powers that are straight up useless for Nids, and two that only swarmy can use (albeit pretty flipping powerful ones). I realized the power of biomancy was its consistently beneficial powers and... enfeeble just turns your opponent in to a heap of fail and I want it on every psyker. :-)
