** One of their main skills called '''{{#skill:5371}}''' has great coverage against the 4 Basic Elements.

** Four of their skills, if you'll count Psychic Wave, are lingering and counts as '''DoT''' (Damage over Time) skills. This is useful and efficient when you're farming, as it is as simple as placing any of your DoT skills on the ground before teleporting away. You can still kill the monsters and you can still get their drops (thanks to the '''<u>@autoloot</u>''' feature). The only scenario I could think of where this won't be applicable, is when you're finishing a Kill Count quest. In that case you'll need to be onscreen to get the count. | ** Four (4) of their skills, if you'll count Psychic Wave, are lingering and counts as '''DoT''' (Damage over Time) skills.

** Their ultimate skill''' {{#skill:5380}}''' not only acts as their 4th job equivalent of Psychic Wave, it can also be endowed to either <span style="color:red;>Fire</span>, <span style="color:blue;>Water</span>, <span style="color:green;>Wind</span>, <span style="color:brown;>Earth</span>, or <span style="color:purple;>Poison</span>—basically assuming the elemental property of their currently summoned '''High Elemental Spirits'''; but unbeknownst to many it also acts as CC skill! Both normal and boss monsters with the exception of MVPs hit by this skill are rendered immobile and stunned during the entire duration of the skill animation. We'll go more in-depth about Elemental Buster and its secret shenanigans once we go into the [[The_Complete_Elemental_Master_Guide_by_Goldie#Elemental_Master|Elemental Master section]], so pls. bear with me! <s>*''cough''* '''Autocast Elemental Buster''' ''*cough*''</s> | ** Their ultimate skill''' {{#skill:5380}}''' not only acts as their 4th job equivalent of Psychic Wave, it can also be endowed to either <span style="color:red;>Fire</span>, <span style="color:blue;>Water</span>, <span style="color:green;>Wind</span>, <span style="color:brown;>Earth</span>, or <span style="color:purple;>Poison</span>—basically assuming the elemental property of their currently summoned '''High Elemental Spirits'''; but unbeknownst to many it also acts as CC skill!

** You may argue that {{#item:12710}} is basically free and only costs 10 {{#item:50000}}, but having free guyak whenever you need it is a big add-on, especially for those tight on budget. And besides, not only does it boost movement speed but it also gives you '''+50% FLEE Rate,''' which greatly improves an EM's survivability. | ** You may argue that {{#item:12710}} is basically free and only costs 10 {{#item:50000}}, but having free guyak whenever you need it is a big add-on, especially for those tight on budget.

** EM is already a class gifted with lots of ground magical skills, above average range and AoE, and yet they were still given another mobility skill with Psychic Stream. This skill with a 9-cells range lets you blink/dash towards a monster or a mob of monsters making farming faster and efficient. As an example, you use Psychic Stream on a mob then proceed to auto-cast your Elemental Buster from the Dimension Set to kill the horde of mobs around you, while aiming Diamond Storm to another pack of mobs to maximize your range and space around you. | ** EM is already a class gifted with lots of ground magical skills, above average range and AoE, and yet they were still given another mobility skill with Psychic Stream.
