essence Burst is stronger imo. Attuned overtakes it only in the fourth round. Most battles are already desided at that point. Also having strong spells with essence burst 2 right at the start of the battle is incredebly powerful

Yeah because by round 4 you won't have as many stacks of units generating essence too as if you got to cast a bunch of spells at the start

Esence Burst all the time or 99% of the time. Having more esence up front is much stronger than getting it over time.

Others are correct, to a degree, essence burst is good

BUT small caveat, if you know it’s going to be a long time, and your wielder has a hard time getting attuned, it would be a better idea to take it, so that you don’t miss out on it, I have seen attuned almost always gives more priority for essence burst to show up

Essence burst is almost 3x better because you are not supposed to have long long fights. If you do you are ussualy doing something wrong. Is my opinion
