Spiritmaster skill priority
Ranked by how much each skill matters at level 45: what you keep on cooldown and level first. Cooldowns are base values from client data, before Cooldown Reduction and specializations.
| # | Skill | Type | Cooldown | What it does for you |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Elemental Fusion | Active | – | Big hit you can use once you hold four element stacks (Four Elements). |
| 2 | Combustion | Active | – | 20 m AoE fire hit. First in game8's skill-point order and your main filler damage. |
| 3 | Summon: Ancient Spirit | Stigma | 90 s | 30-second strong spirit whose skill hits up to four targets and grants Four Elements. |
| 4 | Dimensional Control | Active | – | Usable briefly after a spirit uses its skill: AoE slow that restores MP. The glue of the spirit cycle. |
| 5 | Summon: Fire Spirit | Active | 15 s | Damage spirit with a chance to use its AoE on each hit. Summon it last so it stays out. |
| 6 |  Enhance: Spirit's Benediction | Stigma | 60 s | +20% PvE damage and damage tolerance plus healing every second for you and your spirit. |
| 7 |  Jointstrike: Corrode | Stigma | 45 s | 20-second damage-over-time on up to four targets; they also take 10% more damage from your spirit. |
| 8 |  Flame Blessing | Stigma | 60 s | For its duration, your attacks have a chance to deal extra damage. |
| 9 |  Jointstrike: Curse | Active | 10 s | AoE plus a Curse damage-over-time; your spirit adds an element-specific effect. |
| 10 |  Cold Shock | Basic | – | Basic 20 m water hit that restores MP. Weave it in whenever MP dips. |
| 11 |  Summon: Water Spirit | Active | 15 s | MP spirit: each of its hits restores MP to you. First in the spirit cycle. |
| 12 |  Summon: Earth Spirit | Active | 15 s | Tank spirit that holds enmity and can taunt players. Keep it out when soloing tough mobs. |
| 13 |  Summon: Wind Spirit | Active | 15 s | Healing spirit that restores a bit of your HP with each hit. |
| 14 |  Soul's Cry | Active | 45 s | 5-second Fear (70% chance on players). |
| 15 |  Cry of Terror | Stigma | 90 s | Chance to Fear up to four enemies. The PvP swap. |
| 16 |  Seize Magic | Stigma | 90 s | AoE that strips up to two buffs. |
| 17 |  Magic Block | Stigma | 60 s | 75% chance to Seal a target for 5 seconds. |
| 18 |  Defiance | Active | 60 s | Shared skill: breaks stun, knockdown, airborne and similar crowd control, then gives 5 seconds of status immunity. |

PvE vs PvP
PvE
- ◆Use Summon: Ancient Spirit on cooldown so Four Elements comes early in each fight.
- ◆Summon the Fire Spirit last in the cycle; only one spirit stays out at a time.
- ◆Keep Jointstrike: Corrode up on bosses; the spirit's damage bonus is easy to forget.
- ◆When soloing, swap to the Earth Spirit to tank and the Wind Spirit to heal.
PvP
- ◆Cry of Terror and Soul's Cry are two separate Fear tools; chain them for a long lockdown.
- ◆Seize Magic strips buffs like immunity shields before your burst.
- ◆You have no escape skill, so position behind your frontline.
- ◆The Earth Spirit can taunt players and pull pressure off you.
