Issue

Communing is terrible.

The Defensive Spirits

Most spirits levels up to 8, which is 50 armor and 160 health, so most spirits that lose health whenever they trigger their effect dies within a second.

• Shelter:

25 5 45 . At 15 communing; Shelter can reduce damage to 10% up to 4 times before it dies.

• Protective Spirit:

10 ¼ 5

• Displacement:

15 3 45 . At 15 communing; Displacement can block 4 attacks before it dies.

• Guardian:

5 1 4

• Union:

15 3 45 . At 15 communing; Union reduce 15 damage randomly 11 times before it dies.

• Shielding Hands:

5 ¼ 15

The Offensive Spirits

• Pain 15 communing - 160 health, 50 armor, 30 damage, can have 1, cannot move.
• Bone Horror 15 death magic - 420 health, 68 armor, 15-43 damage, can have 9 of them, requires corpses.
• lol

Most of the spirits are pretty cool and doesn't afraid of anything, shadowsong requires a non-caster, disenchantment an enchanted target and anguish a hexed target, these skills are worse than pain without.

they're all level 8 or less.

• Shadowsong:

15 5 45 . lives 30 seconds, deals 20 damage and blinds up to 6 seconds.

• Anguish:

25 3 45 . lives 45 seconds, sucks hard without a hex.

• Dissonance:

25 5 45 . lives up to 25 seconds, deals up to 20 damage and interrupts.

• Disenchantment:

25 5 45 . lives 35 seconds, deals 20 damage and removes enchantments.

• Pain:

5 3 30 . ok.

• Wanderlust:

10 5 45 . Deals no damage and dies after 4 knockdowns.

The completly pointless skills

Communing, unlike many other attributes, is filled with them.

• Dulled Weapon: wtf
• Armor of Unfeeling: reduce 10 damage while spawning spirits, and only while doing so.
• Restoration:

10 5 45 . tell people to die within the area of a spirit and then hope that it dies when people have done so. or when your whole team is dead and you're getting hunted down, stand still for 5 seconds and cast a spirit and then wait until it dies.

• Binding Chains: ends on damage, and damage isn't that usual.
• Soothing:

25 5 60 . only works on adrenaline skills.

• Earthbind:

15 5 60 . useful to increase knockdown, owait.

• Signet of Binding: spirits dies before you can use it.

Suggestions

I'm not into some revolutionary idea on how to make spirits more active, because that's stupid. I'm not suggesting buffing them to godlike powers, because they annoy me in PvP.

• Union.

15 3 45 . Binding Ritual. Create a level 1...7...8 Spirit. Whenever a non-spirit ally in its range takes damage, that damage is reduced by 10 and the Spirit is set on fire for 1 second. This Spirit dies after 30...54...60 seconds.

Union doesn't last long if cast within a fight, if burning it'd live at least 11 seconds, maybe a bit much but well needed.

• Shelter.

15 5 45 . Binding Ritual. Create a level 1...8...10 Spirit. Each time non-spirit allies within its range lose more than 10% maximum Health from a single attack, the damage over 10% is redirected to the spirit (maximum 75...51...45). This Spirit lasts 30...54...60 seconds.

This spirit lose 45 health even when it reduce 5 damage from a 65 damage hit with a weapon, this change would deal as much damage to the spirit as it reduce, any damage redirected to the spirit that is over 75-45 would be reduced to 0.

• Displacement:

10 3 30 . Binding Ritual. Create a level 1...8...10 Spirit. All non-Spirit allies within its range have a 75% chance to block Physical attacks. Every time an attack is blocked in this way, this Spirit lose 75...51...45 health. This Spirit dies after 30...54...60 seconds.

this spirit blocks and lose health on wanding, making it only block physical attacks would increase its usefulness alot.

• Anguish:

15 3 45 .

• Disenchantment Dissonance:

15 5 45 .

25->15, ritualists don't have energy storage.

• Wanderlust

Spirit loses 50...34...30 Health.

• Anguished Was Lingwah

15 3 30 . Now spawns a spirit of bloodsong.

Two ways to spawn Pain when bloodsong got changed to channeling, would be a pretty cool way to put down 2 attack spirits at once.

• Soothing Earthbind:

5 3 30 .

in line with nature rituals, even if these only affect your foes.

• Dulled Weapon:

5 1 10 .

• Signet of Binding: 0.75¾ 20

Signet. The next Binding Ritual you create gains +10...162...200 maximum Health for 15 seconds.

much better designed.

• Armor of Unfeeling:

5 1 20 . Enchantment Spell. For 10...30...35 seconds, you have 5...13...15 armor and cannot be knocked down or interrupted while casting Binding Rituals.

10 less damage won't save you when people have 5 seconds to interrupt your damn spirit.

• Binding Chains.

10 1 20 . Hex Spell. For 8...18...20 seconds, target foe moves 50% slower. Binding Chains ends if damage drops that foe's Health below 50%.

less conditional.
