The basics of this build: When 3 is used on an enemy, they are unable to perform most actions. One of these is parrying. The clever magician knows when to use sleight of hand, but also when to use hand to hand. Jump in, Rabbit Hex them, Punch them, Spawn your spectral assistant and throw your bolts. The most important thing to note about this build is that it's not just spirit based, but early on that's going to be the majority of your damage. Order of items can change depending on situation. Don't blindly follow the guide, use your judgement.
