Defiler's Reckoning
This skill summons Dryads to swarm enemies; the guide chooses it because it does not cost Energy and lists Hungry Roots as an alternative.
How it works
The guide describes Defiler's Reckoning as summoning a group of Dryads that swarm enemies. Its stated reason for including the skill is that it does not cost Energy. The author says it can be replaced and names Hungry Roots as an alternative, without describing that alternative's effects in this passage.
When it helps
If you want a different skill, the guide names Hungry Roots as an alternative but does not explain its effects here.
