Thunderslam – 1 Point
Stunning the whole screen is a very nice thing. In early game we have a big skill timer on this skill and on Spirit Walk, but in later game we reach a 0-timer on Spirit Walk so this will be no problem at all. Teleporting into a crowd and instantly stun them with Thunderslam is possible, though you should think twice if you really want to teleport in the middle of the crowd! Better aim at a outer one..
Stormblast – 1 – max
This skill is awesome for our barb! It hits up to 20 times with one attack, which makes it incredible strong together with crushing blow! The lightning damage is nice in case of physical immune monsters, which can't be beaten up by our Spirits, but we are not able to leech. It is the best single target attack of the barbarian but is also great against crowds.
I maxed this during the normal game play to get more range, but only put one point into it after I respected (you should have decent range with some +skill items after lvl 100)
Wolf Stance – 1-max Point(s)
It gives us and our Spirits everything we need. More points will gives us some more Crushing Blow, but it is not very much.. ...for us! But for our Spirits it is quite a lot! Also we gain all needed speeds from the stance. I think it is up to you if you want it or not. I went with 15Points.
Defender Spirit – max
Great life, great damage and Retaliate. Those minions are great tanks and eat nearly every non physical immune monster in the game. And for those, we can help with Stormblast. Retaliate is a very good crowd control and keeps monsters away while you go for a boss or a totem.
Greater Manifestations – max
Even more life and more damage for our Spirits
Spirit Walk – 1-x (to lower the skilltimer)
Teleports you and your minions towards the attacked enemy. The spell timer goes down 0.2 seconds per hard point into the spirit tree. If you want to reach it earlier, you might also put points into any other skill in this tree. I put some points into this skill to disable the skill timer when I was lvl 100. (note that you can respec later so those points arn't wasted)
Spirit Guide – max
This skill increases our damage and cast rate when we are next to a spirit. But the important thing is, it also increases our defence!
Mountain King – 1-max
Gives us a percentage bonus to all attributes. Can help you to wear your equipment and also provides us a life boost. You have to choose if you want to spend points here or in Wolf Stance.
Shamanic Trance – max (maby supermax)
Gives us more Spirits and provides a boost to their stats. If you have some +max skill items or charms you might supermax this one for more Spirits.
Immortal – max
A chance to avoid damage and faster hit recovery rate. This is important because now we don't need to get all the fhr from our items and can now focus on summoner gear.
Thundergod – 0 - 1 Point
Nice extra stun, but not necersarry. One point is just right to get some extra stun. 作者: xuehua 时间: 2010-5-6 03:30
