Axe autoattack will give 16s of might to your pet per bounce with strength runes + fortifying bond assuming that change makes it through the next balance patch. I wanted to test out the synergy between strength runes and fortifying bond so I built up typical spirit build with the condi rune/sigils swapped out for strength/battle.
This is built for this patch only.

Some condi damage (balthazar-> strength+ geomancy -> battle) is lost in favor of 15-25 stacks of might for your pet.
The build works by abusing fortifying bond + strength runes. A few actions will result in huge might stacks for your pet and long duration might for the player.
ex. (for pet)
1) pet swap – 3 stacks (19s+)
2) stalker f2 – 10 stacks (15s+)
3) weapons swap – 3 stacks (16s+)
+strength runes, sword AA, and assorted random boons from allies
I have found this is stronger than current spirit builds against low armor builds (meditation guard/ele/some engies), slightly better against warrior, and slightly worse against thief.
Post patch the might will be pumped out by your axe autoattack. Stalker will be swapped with a canine, battle sigils could then be swapped out, and RaO could be traded for the new entangle.
edit: corrected an error
