When to buy & tricks

Tankbuster builds up a stored bonus while you idle, then your big-hitting abilities (those over the damage threshold) tack on extra spirit damage that ignores resistance. Slot it on burst casters who land one heavy nuke per fight to punch through high-HP, resist-stacked targets.
