Regarding Spiritmaster

Good day!

So today, I decided to make a Spiritmaster since aside of Scouts, this is the only class I haven't explored yet and I also find it interesting.

I would like to ask those who are knowledgeable about this class some advice and tips on how to play the class better and enjoy it. If you can link me a guide, I will be more than glad.

About my set, I have full ABG, as well accessories, and E.Mastarius' Tome. I would like to know what manastone should I put on the set and the weapon and what tome should I get to fuse with my Tome. One of the problems I noticed earlier while PvPing is that, when I am using full MR, I oftentimes getting resisted by Sorcerers, even Gladiators. With full MACC I just die in instant.

I am a bit clouded as well about what skills are useless and doesn't need to be put on the skill bar. I am playing in Siel and LOL, the skills are just too much and the skills for the spirits are way too confusing.

And about the game play, what should I focus when facing an opponent, or 2? Should I really start with fear or try debuffing them first? What are the debuffs/skills that can not be resisted?

If you feel like recommending a video for me to watch, it's fine and please do so.


Thank you so much in advance!

 

I really don't ike SM but you said that you would mail me some SW parts and you forgot

 

To avoid getting dehydrated, drink a lot of water...

 

Uh damn! Yes I forgot. Sorry about that. I will send it right at the moment I log-in later. I will just send you some items I can send.

You might want to bring your trolling elsewhere.

 

Been playing SM for months and I think going MR is pretty useless. You cant hit anybody at all, full MA is my preferred choice. There are a lot of spirit skills that you can utilize to help you protect yourself from dying instantly. Also I combine Shield + Fine protection scroll whenever faced on a 1on1. that's like 2k+ shield already about 2 skills blocked or 1 spell blocked if it's Glacial or Flame. Although I think it is important that you know how to use spells/debuffs effectively. Wish someone could link you to a TUT though.

 

Remember my advice after playing Spiritmasters for 2 days without drinking... then you'll be grateful!

 

Thank you for this. This helps don't worry. Question, do you know an exact skill of SM that can not be resisted? Like, at all. LOL with my Sorcerer full MR before + Elemental Ward + NHDE accessories I think I still received a damage from an SM I was fighting with. Was it the Implosion something?

Wow! My topic is way too far from your reality D:

 

I saw an SM who could resist my sorc (1500+ ma) and he could also bypass my 2358 MR. How is that possible then? He was also resisting me with magic assist,the only way to hit him was through the focus..

 

Magic Implosion can be resisted, unlike Shackle of Vulnerability which lowers elemental defenses/attack speed and increases your cast time.

(Not talking about Focused Evasion and such, those can resist it)

 

Yes Magical Implosion it removes 3 buff which deals damage and leaves a DOT damage. Although before even if it resisted it still leaves the DOT damage but lately that's not the case (not confirmed though).

Also MB is not so important for SM's having 1.8-1.9 mb is enough. Effective use of spirit + debuffs = you win.

Hmm. if you have 1500 MA that can be resisted with a Water spirit buff that adds 250MR. Im full MA with 2.2k MA w/water spirit buff and 1.9k MR with spirit buff. The buff adds 100MA,250MR.

 

I did review all the skills awhile ago after reaching level 55 but damn, what made me confused are the skills for the spirit. I mean, I know that there are skills that can help me switch the damage I receive to my summon, even take its HP to heal mine, etc. but what about those commands like, "to attack with boost, hypnosis, etc.." >.> Let alone the skills for the spirits, it occupies all the skill bars =.=

 

sm has 1.5k mb .

 

we're living in Siel. I have 1.8mb and using MA/MB food.

Meh want to post more but I need to leave. Need to go to the beach for our Year End School party.

 

Geez. Which I guess I did not take into consideration. All spirits and their buffs give different stats increase on us, right? I will read all the skills now =.= It was just too boring OMG, the skills for the spirits are way too long and many..

 

Summon Cyclone Servant is broken so i wouldn't use it at all ... Use Wind Cyclone instead ... here's a pick of what i use on my SM



I mainly Rely on my Pet and Armor Spirit as well as Body root if its a melee and Silence and stuns if its a caster and Infernail Pain....

As for Manastones you want to stack MA / MB or HP Mainly MA Since ALL Sm's Need MA... .. For Pets there are really only 6 Commands you Need (Thats if you have Spirit Burn-to-Ashes if not then just 5) ... SM's pretty easy to play

 

LOL I guess you will laugh at my skill bar if you see it. When I reached level 55 and saw all the skills I went insane, being so problematic on where to put all the skills Now my skill bars are still full since I put some of the skills I found might be useful in PvP and disregarded some away. Thank you for the response. Later on I will fix again my skills placement. I am on Asmodian race by the way

 

Witouth mb stones = 1.5.

On topic

You have to concentrate in dealing dmg rather than CC-ing . Do not try to fear first . For example against a tanker the most important thing is to be sure that he wont reach you . For example use Root - Root of enervation and shackle of vulnerability , debuffs ( be sure that you remove his UD ) . chain of earth , dmg / dots / body root , kite all the way . Was just a example as you can do it in a different order ) . Against any other class just start with chain of earth ( and be sure that the skill dun get resisted ) then silence ( for mages ) / body root ( for ph dmg classes ). You can use the spirits skills in pvp but its pretty much usless ( if the spirit is not the dp one ) as most of the skills gets resisted as the spirit has only @ 1k macc .
For protection you can use spirit sub and spirit wall of protection ( wather spirit will give you 100 macc and 250 mr and earth spirit will heal you ( 700hp ) and will cure you ( even COW ) ) .

 

Thank you for the response HEX. I will keep all the tips and advice in mind. I have decided to put full MACC on my ABG set and Tome and buy foods for MB & MACC increase. I was using MR foods earlier which is a fail I guess, hohoho

What should I fuse with my tome?? Is it fine to use Tahabata even though my tome does not have PvP attack?

 

My opinion is to have a MR set and a MA set.

MR set (perhaps use MA tome with it to ensure you hit most players) + water spirit buff = easily over 2.4k MR. Which is... more than enough to rofl-face-roll most clerics/sorcs/ a few other SM's. And beauty is you can always hit those who use MA since their MR will be lower.

But I remember having a huge guide on these forums:

(Just searched) This one here =3

It might help...

http://forum.gameznetwork.com/f16/aegis-ultimate-spiritmaster-guide-36691/ o.o

"Old threads" lmao.


But overall my opinion is to not use fear, and to instead focus on kiting and quickly hitting their face with a flurry of fast-cast. Pet is good for bursting too....

 

Thank you for the guide Aegis <3. LOL I tried to search for the guide before making this thread but found none so I resorted on making a thread and ask directly. Your guide is very old too, no wonder why it didn't show up. Thank you again Reading it now.

Question, I have full MR set Mastarius, ABG and EGT. Where would you suggest me to stock MR and MACC? Which do you think I will use more? MR set or MACC?
