    I'm currently using this skill. Maybe it will change after some clarifications from the developers.

    Passives

    Critical Shot 5/5; Damage 5/5; Haste 5/5; Knowledge 5/5.

    Masteries

    Fireball 5/5; Lightning 5/5; Curse 5/5.

    Skills

    Fireball: [1] Engulf and Giants Pyre; [2] Ignite and Searing Heat; [3] Impact and Corrosive Flame.

    Lightning Strike: [1] Empowered Bolt and Deadly Dynamo; [3] Positive Surge and Electric Eye.

    Time Shift: [1] "Dodge and Death" and Dying Time; [3] Countdown of Pain and Quitting Time; [4] Freeze Time and Chronologist.

    Lifegiver: [1] Increased Range; [2] Empower; [3] Regrowth.

    Arcane Shield: [1] Extended Shield and Arcane Efficiency; [3] Static Resonance and Vicious Shield; [4] Hardened Shielding.

    Curse: [2] Penetrating Curse and Searing Curse; [3] Lingering Curse and Cursed Attacker; [4] Sweeping Curse.


    It works like this:

    Ekenta

    I use Arcane Shield to stay inside the red circle attacking the boss. And Fireball, Lightning Strike and Curse to attack.

    Rahabkor

    Lifegiver to stay alive at the end when you can't use potions and help allies. And Fireball, Lightning Strike and Curse to attack.

    Hedourah

    I need to keep everything in attack. Fireball and Lightning to activate kraken armor. And then Curse and Time Shift to break down the boss's defense.

    For me just curse and equipment with boss damage, the lighting bolt is for boss too, but I don't use because mostly attack with my main weapon.
    Charging other skills costs time of your proc, and spam them you lose abilities.

    Passive critical, damage and haste is a waste of skill points.
    10/10 the mastery of the curse and always changed

    I agree w most but this part
    Why use shield on ekenta?

    Stay out of red zone and you don’t need any defense skill,
    or 1 point in gale mastery negates stun if timed correctly

    Point is if you use an attack skill rather than use a defensive skill (shield) where it isn’t needed you are more effective

    If I move away from the boss I lose the pet's buff. Since he prefers to attack than stay by my side. There is also the fact of leaving the range of the skill.

    And since Kraken equipment has a lot of haste, I prefer to stay still and attack without stopping.

    Ahhh, pet range, that makes more sense
    I prefer ranged pets, but there can be trade offs, I see

    I don't know, me on elite Ekenta I need arcane shield only for the bombs bugs, the Ekenta I do 1 curse proc kraken gun , switch to force gun and die!
    I use only boss damage and elite damage awakening, my intelligence is low.
    My hard thing is to switch to gl to take the extra gold before Ekenta die.
