Early investments. If you will skip improved spirit and take point blank after counterspell - all investments will be closed at 15k. Power spikes: 1 - spirit invest (torment) * 2 - reverb/boundless * 3 - refresher. First T5 sp for 'power slash' is situational, sometimes you can max 'crimson slash' at first.
