Builds or Skills that could synergize with sabway using a Ritualist?
wong shoe
I recently started trying to use sabway on my ritualist, its working quite well, but i need a better build than what im using. Anyone know of any builds or skills for ritualists that i can use????

Spirit Spammer works well, lots of DPS, can you post you build and we can give you tips, also what are doign with ur Sabway, u will want to change ur build depending on what/were you are.
Spindraft
If it were me I'd run as a minion bomber & drop the mm hero for something else like a para/mes or another physical depending on where you are/what you're doing. Probably the most 'synergy' you're going to get w/ sab out of a Rt is simply filling one of the roles yourself.

go for a minion bomber, and have one of your necroes use a icy veins build to help you bomb

In my opinion, go Minion Bomber and take the MM hero, but modded a tad.
Maybe with offensive Death Magic skills and Death Nova for more boom from your minions.

what is interesting is if you use [Spirit's Strength] and [Aura of Holy Might] and some utility and you can be the frontline for your group, provided you take some + armour skills, for example [great dwarf armor]. This can do a lot of damage with ~+50 damage per attack + hitting 3 foes at once.
For a defensive option - yes a Spirit Spammer.

Yes do that.

Minion Bomber, or boom things with channeling/resto hybrid

I run this with my minion bomber, with a heavily modified MM Hero. I have a full guide in my thread, called "The New Minion Bomber."

More than alot. 
And Bargamer, what's the point in Death Nova when you're using ranged minions?

And why do people still run [Verata's Sacrifice]? o_O

[Spirit's Strength] or Minion Bomber.

The MM hero has Nova for a few reasons: Because Heroes can target minions much faster and more accurately than any human, freeing me to take direct damage or other AOE spells. So that when punks dodge the Bone Minion screen and go for the Fiends, they get punished. So that Gehraz can keep on spamming [Signet of Pious Light] as fast as the MM Hero can feed him [Death Nova].
And I take Verata's Sac because since I run minions too, [Blood of the Master] can potentially cost 41% health sacrifice every 3 seconds. NOT a good idea, even with a pair of Monk Players. And if the Fiends become master-less and start attacking the party... Even less of a good idea. XP
PS: Thanks for the plug, horseradish!

It's a fun build to dick around with, which is all you're doing with Sabway.

MM bomber is nice with a Rit, tried it out worked pretty well, what about some kind of channeling build to do damage?

Heroes don't think - they just spam.
So unless you rely on the heroes to provide you with the weapon spell to meet the SS criteria - the weapon spell you will be using will be overridden by the heroes weapon spell. Not the best thing to have WoA replaced by Splinters just seconds after casting it and then Splinter disappearing in 4 hits.
So this is something to keep in mind.
Personally - I am using an Assassin's Promise Nuker.
[skill]Ancestor's Rage[/skill], [skill]Agony[/skill], [skill]"Finish Him!"[/skill], [skill]"You Move Like A Dwarf!"[/skill], [skill]Ebon Vanguard Assassin Support[/skill], [skill]Assassin's Promise[/skill], rez, whatever you want (in my case its [skill]Flesh Of My Flesh[/skill], [skill]Bloodsong[/skill])
This way you just max our Channeling and Deadly Arts.
Been vanquishing the Canthan nooby island and also used it in normal 8-man build with this and it works nicely.

I use Taraway :P (made myself) on my heroes:
And this build is what I use if taking the above heroes:
As mentioned above: Using hero n°2 yourself and swap out the Sab-MM for a IV-Necro (Icy Veins + Putrid Bile + Rising Bile) would be a good idea.

So this is something to keep in mind. Well, one of the great aspect of Sabway is the flexibility of the builds. One can always hotkey the weapon spells if it's necessary. Smart positioning should help as well. Personally, I find SS great with a Paragon secondary, so taking damage shouldn't be much of a problem anyways.

Oh, look what appears on the "Great PvE Builds" on PvX 3 days after I suggest it?
BTW, I didn't post it on PvX and I'm probably not the first to come up with the idea - it's pretty obvious ^^
