Role overview
The Spiritmaster is a summoner who commands elemental spirits for sustained damage. Armed with an Orb, it keeps pressure up through its pets while resisting crowd control.
Why play Spiritmaster
- Sustained pet damage — spirits keep attacking while you reposition.
- CC resistance — strong tools against crowd control.
- Safe pressure — you can damage from range while your pet holds attention.
- Unique playstyle — rewards players who enjoy managing summons.
How it plays
Summon your spirits, keep your damage-over-time effects rolling and let your pets maintain pressure. Skilled Spiritmasters use their pet's positioning and their own CC resistance to control fights in both PvE and PvP.
Gearing & build tips
- Balance magic attack with survivability — you fight at mid-range.
- Keep your pets summoned and re-summon them the moment they fall.
- Learn which spirits to use for single-target versus group encounters.
Spiritmaster vs Sorcerer
The Sorcerer is the burst caster that sacrifices defense for damage. The Spiritmaster is the sustained pet DPS with more resilience — strong CC resistance makes it harder to lock down in PvP, and the pet keeps dealing damage while you reposition. Skilled players use that combination to control fights; the trade-off is less spike damage than a dedicated burst class.
PvE vs PvP
In PvE, Spiritmaster delivers steady damage with strong solo utility. In PvP, its pet pressure and CC resistance make it a frustrating opponent that skilled players exploit to great effect.
