Does anyone use any green ritualist weapons?

Personally, I never saw any rit greens worth keeping. I've just been using a collector staff for my restoration rit for 2 reasons:
1) it has the same skin as most green rit staves
2) I prefer a +5 energy 20% enchant mod staff for most of my builds
If they come out with a nice rit staff with a unique skin in Nightfall, I might switch over, but until then, I'm not wasting my money on anything else.

So far, the only rit green I can see me using is the endgame channeling focus, just so I can get a quicker recharge using the 20/20 channeling wand from Vasburg and be able to set up my spikes much quicker. Other than that, I'm not impressed really. For restoration, I've been using the spawning req lotus staff with +5 energy and +30 health, and it works great.

I dont use weapons because of the various ashes/items that you summon. IMO there is not a single weapon that compares with the items that you summon. A lesser reason is for energy controll. In the middle of a pretty thick battle its easy to lose track of your energy, and I hate it when I suddenly have negative energy after summoning a item.

Weapon set 1: Mossbeard's wand (+ 5 en, 20/20 HSR Spawning) and 20/20 HCT and HSR collector's offhand. I use thing when I'm playing a build that relies on Attuned Was Songkai for the 36% chance of it recharging faster. I use Attuned was for both Channeling and Restoration builds.
Set 2: Wayward wand (+5 en, 20/20 HSR Channeling) and Quansong's focus. I use this set if I'm playing an offensive spirit rit with painful bond.
Set 3: Insightful Spiritbinder of Enchanting (the pre-order staff modded w +5 en staff head and 20% enchant mod). Used whenever I cast Boon of Creation, and then I switch to another set. Used also if I'm using spells from another profession.
Set 4: + 60 HP Restoration staff (modded collector's staff). If I'm relying on Restoration spells a lot or if my HP gets real low, I switch to this staff. Or if I'm casting Flesh of my Flesh.
Set 5: Vengeance seeker (+ 5 en, 20/20 HSR Communing) with Quansong's focus. Used when I'm putting up defensive spirits and likely using dulled weapon and vital weapon.
But as others have pointed out, there are a lot of times when you have an item in hand, so you lose any bonuses from having a weapon. Therefore, it's helpful to have a weapon that reduces recharge or cast time of the item as that's often the only use it gets.
Early in the game, I relied on my pre-order weapon and Mighty Was Vorizun. For the most part, Rit green weapons are a luxury. One can manage with collector weapons better than most classes. I remember when the Vengeance Seeker cost a ton b/c ppl thought it recharged your spirits faster

I agree. Since I've started incorporating Attuned was Songkai into more of my builds, I don't really seem to enjoy the benefit from my items either. Rits are able to keep their weapon spells up the vast majority of the time, so we don't really need the bonuses I guess. They help when they kick in, but I don't rely on them.

I go Restoration most of the time...my weapon sets are:
1. Insightful Celestial Staff of Fortitude:
I had this drop for me and it has a rare "Req 12 Restoration Magic" on it (since I run with 16 it's not an issue)...It used to be a perfect Insightful Celestial Staff of Defence but because I wanted the Rune of SUperior Restoration Magic I decided to put a +30 Staff Wrapping of Fortitude on it. It is gold, naturally, and I love the skin.
2. Bazzr's Staff:
Acquired yesterday for 20k. I have never seen one up for sale in Kaineng....or anywhere in fact... and it has never dropped for me so when I saw this I had to have it. It has HCT/HSR Restoration Magic Skills and Health +30. This staff requires 9 spawning and I love it!
3. Kaolin Wand and Restoration Focus:
The Kaolin Wand I bought on a whim one day - not really used it much but I thought if I ever went into Channeling or Communing it may come in handy. Currently twinned with a collectors Restoration Focus (With +1 Restoration Magic - 20% chance)...I like to switch to it from time to time just cause it looks cool!
4. Longbow:
For luring enemies. I am also a "/R" so for quests such as Boreas Seabed I will take Distracting / Savage Shot.
