** Four (4) of their skills, if you'll include Psychic Wave, are lingering and count as '''damage over time''' ('''DoT''') 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. Apart from this, your DoT skills possess a "hit-locking" CC effect that flinches monsters and places them away from you. | ** Four (4) of their skills, if you'll include Psychic Wave, are lingering and count as '''damage over time''' ('''DoT''') skills.

** | ** Their skills have strong maneuverability and it doesn't take too much effort to accurately aim them to hit monsters. Most of their spells are '''ground targeted''' and would not require a unit present before they can hit or cast. You can control the distance of how close or far apart your skills are from you; all that will be required of you then is to predict which direction the mobs will likely move towards to and then cast your skills there. | ||
** Their ultimate skill''' {{#skill:5380}}''' acts as their 4th job equivalent of Psychic Wave as it can 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 a 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 please bear with me! <s>*''cough''* '''Autocast Elemental Buster''' ''*cough*''</s> | ** Their ultimate skill''' {{#skill:5380}}''' acts as their 4th job equivalent of Psychic Wave as it can 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 a CC skill!
