    yes i have some thoughts:

    Just build the genie with skills that seem nice to you now.
    Replace skills when you want to try other ones.
    Get to know them.
    Make a second genie when you go PvP, youll want a totally different one than for pve.

    This.

    You'll have to try out skills yourself since some of them might not fit your playstyle and/or cultivation.

    For PvE I'd suggest the following:
    Holy Path
    Tree of Protection
    Absolute Domain

    Additionally: Earthquake, Cloud Eruption, Extreme Poison, Tangling Mire


    For PvP I'd suggest the following:
    Holy Path
    Expel
    Absolute Domain
    Fortify

    Additionally: Tree of Protection, Cloud Eruption, Faith, Occult Ice, Extreme Poison, Badge of Courage

    There are the general/popular choices but, like I said above, some of them might not fit you (eg. Demon Venomancers don't need Holy Path in PvE, Sage Venomancers don't need Tangling Mire since they have 100% proc Ironwood etc.)

    Actually tangling mire is still useful for sage venos, as 40% phys debuff from sage ironwood stacks with the tangling mire debuff; with a high appropriate stat genie you can get close to 100% phys debuff for 15 seconds from ironwood + tangling mire.

    Well, of course it benefits both types of Venomancers but I wouldn't consider it a priority if my cultivation was Sage. Holy Path is still nice to have even as a Demon but not a priority. Like I said though, some things may or may not fit one's playstyle or needs so it's up to them to try out the skills.
