The ritualist can be recognized by its typical robes, garnished with bones, teeth, shells, and other objects. Like monks and necromancers, they also wear magical tattoos. Furthermore, ritualists are blindfolded to better communicate with the spirit realm. The patron god of ritualists is grenth. Ritualists provide party support as well as offensive enhancements through: - binding rituals: Create supportive spirits by "binding" them with ethereal chains. These spirits are capable of dealing damage ([[pain]), healing ([[recuperation]), or negating damage altogether ([[union]). - item spells: Conjure ghosts by containing their ashes within an urn. These bundle items allow you heal ([[protective was kaolai]), deal damage ([[cruel was daoshen]), and resurrect allies ([[lively was naomei]). - weapon spells: Improve allies' weapons with magic effects that may heal ([[weapon of warding (pve)]), increase damage ([[brutal weapon]), or provide other benefits ([[guided weapon]). Ritualists shine most in team support, similar to monks. Ritualists are able to solo quite well, as well as effectively tank - given they run the proper builds. A ritualist's strength lies in preparing for battle by summoning spirits and manipulating urns before battle even begins. Although, more recently, ritualists can be found in heroes' ascent, dealing massive damage through such spirits and channeling magic for powerful spikes. The primary ritualist's base armor provides 60 armor, +10 energy, and +2 energy recovery. A starting primary ritualist begins with 30 base energy and 4 energy recovery. The ritualist's primary attribute is spawning power, which increases the duration of weapon spells as well as provide additional health to spirits and creatures you create. 123456789012 |
