With the recent changes to PvE skills and hero/henchman AI, what skills have become useful for builds? For instance, I've heard that the AI can actually manage infuse health which was a surprise to me.

I've looked over the patch notes but I'd like to hear feedback on what previously unused skills have improved.

I've seen quite a few alliance members use E/Mo heroes, HM even, never used myself but they're amazingly efficient.

Also, Signet of Spirits/Bloodsong and just about any spirits have been havily improved thanks to fast cast and low recharge. It's pretty much good enough to substitute an MM if it comes to that.

The rest, meh.

Discord and Spirit Rits are pretty OP atm. Full team of Rits and a couple discords pretty much roflstomps all vq's/quests/missions.

Rit primary with Siphon Spirit is pretty much all that is needed anymore, in the past it required an elite skill for energy management Offering of Spirit. Now get this all combined with a signet (I knew they would take the skill from the bonus mission) that instantly summons 3 long lasting spirits you pretty much have a non corpse MM team.

I've been using Racway for a very long time, since it's beginning actually. I just recently switched to Hero Spiritway and find this is a much better setup with all the new skill updates plus it kills so much faster is is not as fragile (stances).
