Default Rt/R Oath Shot Spirit spammer?

I was wondering if it might work with a spirit spammer with oath shot?

Thanks.

You certainly can....BUt it is honestly less effective than a ritualist primary.

Ritualists have their own elites that can keep spirits up, and they get Spawning power primary attribute.

It is better to use Ritual Lord. Except from having low recharge you will also have spirits with higher health if you invest in Spawning.

Did Oath shot require expertise or something like that to get less chance to miss? If so... next!

EDIT:: Well, it seems it is affected directly by Expertise. No statistics change however "50% Failure rate with Expertise at 7 or less"

so Oath shot Ritualist wouldnt work. darn.

Yes, Oath Shot is thankfully tied to Expertise, so it would be pretty much useless for a secondary ranger to attempt to use.

For a Rt/R, use Serpent quickness or Rit lord.... or both lol. Quicknening Zephyr is good too but you cost more energy. Boon of Creation to help to reduce the hight cost

Unfortunately, those fast recharge things stack like sprint and charge.

I'm not so sure that Rt/** beats out R/Rt in terms of spirit spamming. Sure you can use fast recharge skills and your spirits will have more hp, but the ranger will spend less energy on spirits and they will all recharge every 20sec. It doesn't really matter if they get killed since you can keep laying them down so fast. The extra hp aren't likely to keep your spirits alive that much longer under focused fire anyway. Certainly not more than 20sec, in which time the ranger could recast it anyway.

Ritual Lord Ritualist can recharge faster than an Oath Shot Ritualist.

Hi

Ritual lord with 15 spawning power=75% reduction, meaning a previous 60 second recharge would become 15.

Also at this point boon of creation is gonna be netting you 8-9 energy and a fair amount of health everytime you make a spirit, meaning energy is no problem eitehr.

Ritual lord gives you 75% faster (not reduction) in recharge at 15.

100% faster recharge only halves the timer on the spirits.

I'm quite sure that means Oath Shot still wins over Ritual lord in spirit spamming.
