He's a level 3 librarian with access to the same disciplines as regular Dark Angels librarians. Mind Worm is no longer his sole province.

He carries '''The Book Of Salvation''' which gives +1 A to all DA units within 6", which can have the hilarious effect of stacking with DA banners and righteous repugnance meaning the Dark Angels' dedicated melee units can have an insane volume of attacks.

He also has '''Traitor's Bane''' an awesomely named but completely average master-crafted force sword which has been placed in his regular gear, rather than being a relic. This has the effect of granting him an additional attack when combined with his master-crafted bolt pistol.

Beyond that, he has near-Captain stats (-1 WS), a psychic hood and artificer armour, making him half decent in a stand-up fight.

On his own, he's not quite the psychic powerhouse of [[Varro Tigurius]] or [[Njal Stormcaller]] in terms of both power selection or ability to re-roll failed powers. However, he does have his own unique '''Librarius Conclave''', which is different from the vanilla codex one. In this case, while he is accompanied by two or more other Librarians, they can loan each other their knowledge of powers, harness Warp Charges on 3+ at a cost of the donor librarians not being able to cast powers, '''but''' you also boost the range of the Mind Worm Primaris power to 24".

Comparatively, thanks to a combination of the Draft Psychic Power FAQ and the way Gladius Strike Forces are put together, vanilla Conclaves have been nerfed badly. Get 3 Librarians together and one nominated Librarian can harness Warp Charges on 2+. but despite having access to phenomenal cosmic powah, unless the players are using Tigurius himself, that nominated generic Librarian is limited to manifesting only two powers per turn at most, while his brethren stand around like idiots. You could of course not use the benefit of the formation, but then you're stuck with a tax of a minimum of three Librarians, since there is no other way to squeeze them into a Gladius Strike Force. Dark Angels can at least take them individually as part of Inner Circle command choices.

That's right, Ezekiel comes standard with a 4++ now. His weapons have been given their names back and actually do stuff rather than just grant rerolls. so now the Deliverer is S:4 AP:-1 D:2, and Traitor's Bane is S:+1 AP:-3 D:D3 (Damage:D3+1 against Psykers). Plus he has the [[Book of Salvation]]: friendly Dark Angels within six inches who get killed in the Fight phase, [[Awesome|may immediately pile in and make one more attack before they die]]. As for psychic prowess, he can cast/deny two power per phase, has +1 to Deny rolls if the enemy psyker is within 12 inches, knows Smite and all three Interomancy powers, so he can wound his opponent and force them to fight last and inflict a -1 to all of their To-Hit rolls. Sadly no sign of him getting any [[Varro Tigurius|psychic rerolls]] or [[Njal Stormcaller|casting buffs]], though as an actual warrior, Ezekiel is still one of the most competent Librarians out there with good WS/BS and solid weapons and armour.
