I have in mind a team build involving ritualists and a couple other low-use professions to abuse their powerful skills, but lacking in people to test it with.

I'd like to see a build for FoW or UW..
I've seen someone using 330vwk for FoW tanking with a little bit modified skillbar but.. Could just a simple Splinter Weapon + AR + (maybe Succor/Balthazar's Spirit?) + healing/weapon spell work?
As I don't have EotN and no intentions being an Ursan..
Like posted before, 8 man ritualist team really can be effective in those areas.
But what happens when there are already monks and tanks around? What should a Ritualist do then?

It won't work in the deep unless the steel wall wars have an IAS. You will barely be able to keep it on two wars, leaving little room for error. Also the Necro still fills the role of an SS which in the Deep is VERY efficient.

Mind you, I did it with tanknspank the first time, and not done it since...

My main char is a rit and iv almost got led vanquisher and guardian with her. I also run HM missions with her so there r sometimes afk ppl and i only use heroes and hench so u cant say rits cant do anything. Rits can do alot and r good but ppl always underestimate them. Good luck with ur new rit if u make one =)

Volley/spirit strength/splinter/ancestors is pretty good almost anywhere..

Cleared Urgoz last weekend with my rit/r and made lots of numbers fly across the screen.

rits are by far the most underused class in high end pve ;they can dish out massive dmg or massive heals, rits always have a spot in my groups

even the DoA N00Bs started to realize how good Rits are and have Rit nukers instead of Ele nukers in some DoA builds...
that should say something about all "high end PvE"
