Ritualist Hero

First of all, I love the concept of heroes, it's one of the best additions of Nightfall and has already given me alot of fun. The only thing I'm really missing is a Ritualist hero. Why? Some Ritualist builds are quite easy to control yourself (Spirit Spammer) and are very effective to have around you at pretty much all time. Just like a Minion Master, a Spirit Spammer is a build I'd like to take with me at all time, but I can't.

So ANet, please add a quest somewhere in Factions to unlock a Ritualist hero, that'd make me even more happy with heroes then I already am

I kinda doubt that the AI would be able to handle Spirit Spamming.

Anyways, wait for Razah to be programmed into the game, then make him a Ritualist.

The AI can't, but I can. Just like a Bonder and an MM, a Spirit spammer is quite a passive class, which you can control yourself with minimal help, yet they're all very powerful.

And Razah? Do you mean they're planning to add a new hero and might make it a Ritualist? That'd be awesome

EDIT: Hmmm... I didn't read that correctly. Do you mean you can make Razah a profession of your choice when he's released?

according to the manual he can be any profession.

The AI might be able to handle simple summons like shelter and union, maybe recuperation and life as well. Offensive ones would be trickier as would spreading them out.

A restoration or channeling rit would work okay though.

Quite simply because they have every other profession, so why not Ritualist.

Plus the other fact of why did they give us an Assassin Hero and NOT a Ritualist.

Im not the only one who isnt very keen on Ass, because as fighters their rather useless and die after taking any agro.

I personally lvld my Ass to 20 and now I never use it.

So a ritualist Hero would have been alot more widely accepted and used.

They would provide alot more functionality.

Plus after reading one comment, I dont see why spirit creation would cause any issues for AI.

My MM which I got from Tyria does a very good job at controlling minions, so I doubt there would be any issues of controlling spirits.

ADD A RITUALIST HERO - BUT MAKE I ONLY AVAILABLE TO USE WITH FACTION.

sigh..why does anet hate us rits...

i'm sure everyone would love a personal version of me helping them

and as for Zingers comment a Ritualist is more than just a Spirit Spammer.

Just as a Necro is more than a Minion Master.

I was about to mention Razah...:[

Uh. The OP was specifically in reference to Spirit Spamming.

Spirit Spamming requires strategic positioning, which is impossible for the AI unless you micromanage like hell.

As a Ritualist player, I love how there's no Ritualist hero to do those spirit spamming or other Rit skill duties. Makes me all the more wanted, or at least more noteworthy when I go "lfg" ^_^

This is probably the one thing I want the most right now in GW. Oh, and of course it would have to only be availible if you have Factions, so I doubt Razah would be a Rit hero.

Maxiemonster, Razah is a hero that currently isn't in the game. There is supposedly going to be a big Nightfall update in a few months (I'm thinking around Christmas because of what Gaile said in one of her posts). In this update, ArenaNet is supposed to add a Elite Mission, Razah, and some new features.

I seriously hope they add a Rit Hero aswel.
Im getting annoyed at looking at nearly every collector I go by to find Ritualist weapons :P
