To shinyshin:
What I did is once I got past the first fight I respec, resulting in gaining 19 more attribute points, and put them all into instinct.
Then I got Salvation up as much as possible as well as shock therapy.
Then aim to have by level 8:
Wraith Form
2 Electrical Storm
3 Salvation
2/3 Shock Therapy (Can't remember how much I had at this level)
2 Terrify (This was my most useful skill, I used it to lower certain monsters focus and give Veradux more time to heal. Or I would use it to make 3v3 fights more like 3v2)
