Spirit skills[edit | edit source]

The Spirit tree focuses on mana regeneration, crowd control, and being more adept at surviving. Like any skill tree focusing on any element of gameplay, it cannot be called a skill tree if it doesn't have signature skills that can actually kill. Luckily for us, the Spirit tree has a few cool skills that makes enemies easy to kill, like Haunt, Soul Harvest and Mass Confusion.

Tier I[edit | edit source]

• Haunt
  • Launch a Spirit to invade the bodies of your enemies, causing sustained damage over time; the spirit lasts longer when inhabiting a host than when searching for one.
• Spirit Vessel
  • Replenishes your mana when consuming a health globe.

Tier II[edit | edit source]

• Soul Harvest
  • Draw out the life of enemies to replenish your mana.
• Rituals
  • Increase your spell power by a percentage (%) of your vitality.
