wait until you have better mana regen. rate and invest the skillpoints in Liche King instead of Ternion in the beginning, he will kill for you

I think Ternion should only be upped at around lvl 18 and such.. When your Liche is no longer as godly powerful as before (altho he is still powerful of course).. Then mayb you may choose to do some dmg yourself... Which means Ternion

Use Ternion when you need it, usually when facing 3 or more monsters, and your normal staff attack otherwise to save mana.

At early levels you will only put 1 point in ternion and try to max out arcane lore. This gives you an AE attack when you have multiple mobs on you. The AE aspect of arcane lore makes group killing a lot easier. With 3 mobs in melee range, if you blast ternion, all 3 mobs will take the effective damage of 3 staff attacks.

Comparitively, ternion is a cheap costing spell, but at low levels you don't have the energy to spam it.

but I think three projectiles of ternion skill is not good for killing bosses, I'd like to use Ice Shard when play Oracle

If you have a pet to distract a boss, and able to withstand 1 or 2 hits, ternion is also good on bosses. Just send in the pet, get behind the boss in melee range, then unload until the boss turns on you.
