11 Spiritmaster is the summoner. It deals magic damage with an orb while elemental spirits fight beside it, and the spirits are the class rather than a garnish: they carry damage over time, apply debuffs, and in the earth spirit's case can pull threat off the caster.

44 How It Plays
55  
66 The class plays as a manager rather than a caster with a pet on autopilot. Spirits are debuff and damage-over-time engines, the earth spirit carries a taunt, and the class has command effects that trade spirit uptime for the caster's own survivability. That gives Spiritmaster an unusually strong solo profile: the spirit can hold a target while the caster resets.

2121 Every class runs the same underlying loop: tab-targeting with active dodge and parry, skill chains that prompt a follow-up key, a Groggy stagger gauge on bosses, and Perfect Block or Perfect Dodge windows on a well-timed input. Loadouts hold twelve active skills, a set of Stigma slots and ten passives, allocated with Mastery Points and Stigma Shards.
