Rt vs R

I am having a problem deciding on one of these 2 secondary professions. Could some of the more experienced players shed some light on which might be more viable? Do we have any E/Rt here that can share their feelings on this, E/R are welcome too. I have read about the E/Me and E/Mo classes and Iam trying to pick something that is farther from the norm. This is going to be strictly for PvE and I am starting in factions era.

Ended up picking up ritualist, in the end it looked more viable than ranger IMO

Even though you have chosen Ritualist as your second profession (good for you by the way), I'll still give you the good and bad of both.

Rangers:
Winter - changes elemental damage into cold - you can cast fire spells and do cold damage
Serpents of Quickness - faster recharge time of spells
Stances - good defense when you try to cast, or try to flee
Grater Conflaguration (e) - I don't know if you can get this or not, but turns physical damage into elemental damage - use this plus wards plus stances for greater armor protection
Troll Unguent - better healing than Aura of Restoration
Can have a pet

Ritualist:
Channelling gives possible energy regains from Essence Strike
Restoration Spells - good healing and condition removal
Communion Spells - good protection spells
Hard Rez
Create extra targets - spirits

Just so you know, you can change your 2ndary profession at Senji's corner if you do not like the Ritualist.
