BestoneBestone – One of the best CC skills in the game, the BestoneBestone freezes enemies, turning them into stone, petrifying enemies for a bit. However, keep in mind that attacking the petrified enemies will break the spell, freeing them.

ElderbloomElderbloom – Eventhough this is one of the only healing abilities in the game, the ElderbloomElderbloom is by far the most potent as it creates a flower that heals all allies that stand near it.

Phantom FlockPhantom Flock – This is a fantastic skill for dealing damage to a single target. It summons a large amount of birds that repeatedly attack the target while keeping it stunlocked.

Joineries

Always use a Blessed by Iridis Joinery if you find one. If you don’t have it, skip reforging unless you at least have a Polished Joinery. Keep in mind that adding a Joinery to a weapon resets it to level 1, so you’ll need to level it up again afterward.

Iridis' FavourIridis' Favour is an important node to invest into in order to increase your Spirit. AkinAkin is another importnat skill as it lowers your cooldowns. On the other hand, TendrilTendril allows you to freeze enemies you block/take damage from or parry. Another very important skill is the Vernal PoolVernal Pool which reduces cooldowns if you stand on top of or inside water.
