Genie's

TehMage - Lost City

Alright so I think I saw a thread earlier with some genie talk in it, but the focal point wasn't about genies, which brings me to my point. Which genie skills are good and which should I not even bother with.

Holypath
Extreme Poison
Frenzy
chi skill (can't remember the name but i saw it come up once)
Second Wind
Tree of Protection
Thunderstorm
Fortify

Just to name a few, these I've been told are decent skills to have. If I can get a few responses from people who have used or have different skills with some experience to show for them please do post.

Thanks for the feedback in advanced.b:cute

I have cloud eruption,Holy path,Second wind, and extreme poison. With cloud eruption(chi skill) I'm completely independent of mana. I don't even have mana pots in inventory. I'm satisfied with this genie, but i'm working on better genie with 5 spells. ;-)

Holypath - One of my favorite skills to use running to do Treasure hunts and to escape quickly to use some healing pots or if you weren't paying attention to quaff an mp powder or somf mp pots.

Second Wind - Saves you on pots, saves you when you accidentally pull more then one mob. Heals you instantly and has saved me a few times when i accedentally got in too close to a boss with an aoe attack.

Those are the only two i got atm, on top of the Zeal Genie skill to pull mobs. heh.. makes life so much easier when u don't have to worry about pulling 5 mobs when u need just the one in the middle of the group for a sill quest.

I have..

Extreme Poison
Frenzy
Holy Path
Fortify
Absolute Domain

I wouldn't bother with thunderstorm.. we already do plenty of dmg, you'd be much better off with a defensive skill or a skill that boosts ur own damage. Second wind would be great, but i have just a vit/mag build on my genie.. so the base +800 hp is almost useless. I think the chi skill would be amazing on a demon mage.. but I rarely need more chi.. and when I do, its not hard at all to kite a bit while spamming pyro and waiting for li's technique. I wouldn't say useless, but I feel there are better skills out there. Tree of protection is more for high hp classes, the ability to tick your charm is pretty nice (i.e. you get slept and see a BT coming.. auto tick ur charm and you have more hp so ur less likely to get one shot.. and it even gives a little heal to get you by to ur next tick) but the heal over time just never seemed fast enough. Again my genie doesn't have enough strength to make this worthwhile.

A dex based genie could also have skills like spark to reduce resistances (have heard stories about spark + undine meaning WotP hitting 4k non crit on a 9x robe) and wind shield would be useful when you see alot of dmg coming your way. You can make alot of genies work, but I wouldn't have a genie without absolute domain, extreme poison, and holy path. Your last skills are gonna be based on playing style.. but those 3 are imo absolutely neccessary.

Frenzy, Extreme poison, Absolute domain, Tree of protection, and holypath.
Tree is great once your charm ticks, its like a EP heal that saved my **** countless times when I had no event pots. Absolute helps for those god damn chain stuns, allows you to tank long enough to nuke back, or during a huge ult. Holypath is good for kiting if DS is under cooldown, or just getting around places, its gotta be my most spammed genie skill to date.

Frenzy and Extreme are self explanitory. You go from a normal cannon to a OMFGWTFLOLOLOLOLPWN Cannon.

In order of usage:

- Second wind (1600 HP heal)
- holy path
- Poison
- Frenzy
- absolute domain.

I plan to get a genie later with the chi skill and second wind just for TT/BH/light grind so I'm not going to worry about mana anymore. I do fine with a 16k mana pool now and the sage water shield/spark but with additional help in chi from a genie, hmm...I could prolly sell mana
