Skills

Thorns Totem
Is a supporting skill that is going to allow us to consistently utilize the Thunder Totem node in our Summon Storm Totem tree. The two most important nodes on this skill tree are Forested Expanse, which increases the maximum number of Thorn Totems we can summon, and Grove Mind. These nodes work together, as Grove Mind will allow us to summon all of our Thorn Totems up to our maximum in a single cast, providing instant fuel for our Thunder Totem.

Primalist
We will put 25 points into our Primalist passive tree, which will grant us access to the other mastery passive trees. This tree is also going to provide us with several foundational stats. We will gain Attunement, which is our primary scaling attribute for damage, as well as spell damage that benefits both us and our Summon Storm Totem. This tree also provides essential health and sustain to improve our survivability.
