    I just want to point out that Stoneskin is a viable enmity tool at the start of a fight, since generally in the middle of a fight it's too long of a cast time to deal with. Damage absorbed by Stoneskin is damage you don't have to heal, and the time it takes for the enemy to break it down is more time for your tank to build enmity through damage and abilities, especially with Shock Spikes. A Roaming Soul'd Sacrifice before engaging is also useful for a similar reason.

    Correct, im not implying stoneskin isn't a good tactic to use at the start of the fight. Its a very useful spell
