Mechanics Explained
Before scaling the skill, confirm whether damage comes from hits, ailments, projectiles, area effects, minions or spells. Wrong scaling is the main reason a skill feels weak.
Best Support Logic
Choose supports that solve the biggest weakness first: coverage for mapping, direct multipliers for bossing, or speed and cost reduction if the skill feels clunky.
Leveling Usage
During campaign progression, keep resource cost comfortable. A lower damage setup that casts smoothly is better than a high-cost setup that stops after every pack.
Endgame Scaling
In maps, the skill needs coverage and uptime. Against bosses, it needs enough burst during safe windows and enough defense to survive downtime.
Build Synergy
This skill should be linked from builds that invest in attack, lightning, spear scaling. Avoid recommending it on pages where the tags do not match.
Common Mistakes
Do not treat the skill as a standalone solution. It still needs movement, defenses, mana or spirit planning and matching gear.
