--------------------------------------------------------------------
So now that the Ritualist is confirmed with good detail about it. I guess it is a solution to our Summoner needs? Actually, I saw a concept class done by someone with similar concept of summoning "Avatars" and bind them to other before too...

So, basing off this, post your suggestion on what more can be added to the Ritualist (skills, weapons, armor, etc)

why change it to druid? ritualist sounds cool

what sort of armour level will it have anyway? i'd imagine it'll be same amount as casters..but not sure

somebody think a Ri/Ra using pet would do well ? yust speculation

well the ritualist is like a dark priest/necro/ranger, so I expect it would do a ton of damage with a pet to help.

Its like a shaman in WoW, except its probably cooler (judging upon the name and the blind-folded decription of its appearance.

wonder what type of weapons they'll give him.

Hmm, Im thinking thinking ritual skills with preemptive qualities

Skills that are similar to Reversal of Fortune mechanics

for exampel
ward off poison
Ritual. For 8 seconds, the next time target ally would become poisoned, that ally deals poison damage on his next physical attack instead.

ward off undeads
Ritual circle. For 20 seconds, undeads entering the ritual circle are struck with burning (and flee)

i think that ritualist was the necessity of balancing the over power of some existing professions than others..and the ritualist will make ppl fear him as one of players in PVP u can't underestimate his skills.
may be he can balance the IWAY methods of boring playing to its side and create new methods of playing PVP after CH 2 being release.
i think combination of Ri/Me or Ri/N will make him so dangerouse

I really really want pictures...

I think running a n/ri or ri/n would be really fun spamming minions, fiends and fighting spirits - probably basic but really fun, and might make for a 'summoner' type feel.

this is quite freaky, but the day before the ritualist was announced, i was fooling around outside Temple of Ages with my monk while I rearranged my interface.
i rarely get close enough to a monster to admire the model, however on this one occasion i did - and i saw that the Damned Cleric is blindfolded.

imagine my shock when, the next day, i read about the new class being blindfolded!

the cleric model looks nice, too, so have a quick look if you're desperate for blindfolded madness. i'm now gonna go find some white mantle ritualists, and have a snoop around

Dang ActionJack you beat me to making a thread. anyways if anyone else has any ideas on the assassin profession those go here http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...ad.php?t=80738

I like the fact that it can heal allys now monks aren't the only ones who can heal altough were going to starting seeing "NEED A HEALING RITUALIST OR MONK FOR GROUP!!!" in C2.

I would like to see a skill like:

Absorbtion Spirt

You summon a lvl X-X spirt. 25%? of damage is redirected to this spirt from party members in the area. This spirt dies after X-X seconds.

Bump:
15e|1c|5r: You walk into a bar. Knock your self down.

Anyway.. I like Roupe's idea. I was hoping there would be more summon type of skill (summon a minion like spirit,but with out the dead body, that last for few seconds that fight like a pet, and have really low health) Or something like Shaman King, where you can possess your self with differnt spirit for differnt attacks.

And I will quote my self with this line of skill I wrote before for a Psion type of class.. but could be modify to fit that of Ritualist... just change crystal to differnt sprit and such... Maybe it will be an inspiration to other
