Help me with a Spiritualist Build.

[Chelios]

So i'm thinking about a PC who is a kid( only for flavour) and his borther died in a war, so he remains all alone since the brother comes back as ghost/spirit
At first i think to do a Summoner character since Summoner is really a strong class and i can make an eidolon for being his borther, than i think about the Spiritualist, but it is a bit hard to build or i can't understand how to build it so i made 2 characters:

Phantoms are generally less strong direct combatants than eidolons, as a rule. Obviously Anger phantoms are a little better at direct fighting. You want to pay attention to how the phantom's powers work.

Dedication has a lot of abilities that key off when you get hit and a defensive aura that's a bit short in distance. So it tends to work better if you're going to stand next to the phantom and fight with it. Ranged is already a feat intensive style and spiritualists get no bonus feats, so it may not pair as well with this phantom.

Despair really focuses on debuffing your opponents damage and spells. It's a moderate combatant otherwise. It's going to need to get up it your opponents face. You could reasonably do ranged with this one, having your despair phantom to harass the target, weakening it, and then alternate a debuff spell of your own or ranged attacks.
