Umm, resto preety much pwns em' both in my oppinion
I run 16 resto 13 spawning on my rt and I use Bazzr's Staff, that's prolly the best rt staff I've ever found <.< (dropped by Vwk boss)

But resto/channeling hybrid s preety cool too (I've heard.)

Spawning is basically the "I have a few extra points laying around, so I might as well invest them in..." attribute.

Channeling + Restoration are the two lines you want to spec in when playing a Ritualist. Communing, after the move of Bloodsong, is pretty much the suck.

That really depends on your build.
Spawning is only any good if you actually use any skills from that line (Spirit's Strength for example)

My Rit was Channeling mostly with restore for a couple skills from time to time. Spawning got the left over points. Right now my Rit is setup as Restore running the 330 build for farming though. Spawning only gets points when I dont know what else to put it in.

Channeling kills things. Hard. Ancestor's Rage and Splinter Weapon are both in the top 10 of guild wars skills.

Spawning is only decent in Minion Bombers and Spirits strength.

Resto and channelling. Spawning an communing needs a buff.. they are useless :/ Hmm.. greens, resto/channeling droknars staff is pretty good.

Unless you are using enchantments, Droknar's Restoration and Channeling Scepters and Foci.

Channeling is a damage/support line. Spawning is only support. Therefore, Channeling wins. As for greens, unless you find a really, really, good one, you can pretty much play the Salvage game and make your own, according to your own build.

Why choose between the two? Best ritualist builds usually put 12 in both.

Channeling is much better than spawning for almost every viable build.

Since i have gotten NF and Capped OoS i have been making a ton of builds using either 16 Channeling and Resto or just Channeling and Spawning power (for the increase time of Wep Spells... unless your gonna go as a spirit spammer its only really good to use Spawning for Wep Spell duration increase.) I can't decide if i was to use just one, i would prolly use both, like my current healng build is like 16 Resto and 12 or 13 with Resto Spells and OoS.

Channeling:

[ancestors' Rage][splinter weapon][spirit rift][offering of spirit][nightmare weapon][warmonger's weapon][bloodsong][death pact signet] or [flesh of my flesh]

Restoration:

[vengeful weapon][Weapon of warding][Mend Body and soul][life][Protective was kaolai][offering of spirit][Spirit Light][Death pact signet] or [flesh of my flesh]

Hybrid <3 <3 <3:

[weapon of warding][Mend body and soul][ancestors' rage][splinter weapon][protective was kaolai][offering of spirit][life][death pact signet] or [flesh of my flesh]


Try these builds out. Customize them when you feel necessary. I know the resto build has OoS, but you're seriously gimping yourself without e-management and the unused skill points. I suppose [energetic was lee sa] could work though.....

*I never get tired of posting those builds *

Typical. No one adding the Songkai healer : P

The most spam happy build you'll ever find at 15 Spawning so long as you have Songkai and don't dip below 0 when using it.

[vengeful weapon][spirit light][soothing memories][mend body and soul][weapon of warding][Life][Attuned was Songkai][Death Pact Signet]

[Recuperation][resilient weapon][Flesh of my Flesh][Recovery]

For your secondary, you can try other stuff like [mending touch][serpent's quickness][glyph of swiftness]
