COMBAT SIGNALManaging a companion-style command kit
Use this as a class-choice lens, not a ranking.
STIGMA / SYSTEMCommand: Proxy
Name confirmed in NC’s March 2026 update; check the live tooltip.
02 / PLAY PATTERN
Mechanics and tradeoffs
The English announcements do not publish a complete current summon, resource or rotation reference, so precise execution claims would be premature.
Precision boundary
Exact damage coefficients, skill sequences, cooldowns and class rankings are not claimed. Those change with balance patches and are not provided by the cited official material.
03 / FIELD DECISIONS
From leveling to group play
Learn the loop
Use the solo-oriented identity to test how comfortably you clear routine objectives, then check the current client before specializing into a particular command sequence.
Read the encounter
Compare your solo consistency with group expectations rather than assuming the same setup serves both. The official sources do not certify a group ranking.
Test the matchup
Check the current effect of Command: Proxy and whether it improves control, survival or pressure in your chosen mode; no effect is inferred from the name.
04 / LOADOUT
Skills, build direction & gear
Skill direction
The officially named Command: Proxy Stigma.
Build direction
Decide whether your immediate problem is solo safety or group utility, then test available Stigma options against that problem.
Gear decision
Prioritize confirmed acquisition paths and content gates; no pet-scaling formula is asserted.
05 / ANSWER
Is Spiritmaster a separate ninth class?
No. The first English reveal used Spiritmaster; a later NC announcement used Elementalist for that class lineage.
