Channeling for me

not many people use the channel spike, so it's surprising to be killed by a rit.

A number of us were talking about weapon spell builds and started going on about how vengeful weapon and weapon of remedy in the same build can be quite good.
Someone suggested using a Rt/Mo spec'd in Restoration and Smiting using Reversal of Damage on top of that. Recently in that forum I saw a build using Resotation and Smiting that proved to be quite good at providing both healing and damage.
Here it is to try out. I haven't played it yet, but it's something that I think will really work well and probably be my favourite build based on my previous experience with some of those spells combined.

I really enjoy using skills that hardly anyone uses. One in particular I had real fun with was using; Swap, Grasping was Kuurong, Destruction, Rupture Soul - That was a really fun spike build to run.

I'm also looking at how Destructive was Glaive is a targettable item spell. I'm no good with making HA builds, but I think if you got a Ritualist-ball going around, you could channel up some pretty nasty spikes if you use it all on one target^^. KABOOM!

When you get into parties with monks who have a few enchantments to protect you with, you have a good guaruntee that your Spirit Strength rit will go far. That skill is more valued than IW - aside from it's increased damage, but also because it can be easily covered with Sight Beyond Sight. In the illusion line, you're not so lucky.

Signet of Spirits worked well for me with the restoration line. When I had recovery, recuperation and Life on the floor, I could use that elite and pump up the heals with Spirit Transfer. Normally, recover should take care of all conditions, so skills like Mend body and Soul might be a waste. Instead, take something like GwS and Soothing Memories for self defense.

Last of all is my favourite build, using Echo in the channeling line.... great times^^.

I use my ritualists in all roles, to be honest...

Communing/Restoration - Perfect PvE soloing for me.
Channeling/Restoration - Excellent for AB's and Fort Aspenwood.
Spawning/Restoration - Great for group PvE play as a secondary healer.
Communing/Spawning - Ritual Lords are far from dead.

I know I could probably create a Communing/Channeling build to deal out some sick damage, but I have a hard time abandoning the highly useful Restoration line.

rl spam before IT.
rl spam with damage spirits after IT.

one hell of an annoying resto with some ranger spirits at aspy.
(prolly my favorite build ever - on any char!)

Channeling. When I first used it I was blown away. Although as soon as I capped VwK I'm going solo vermin.

Rawr, Made a Spirit's Strength build as a Rt/P for PvE. Spears seem to be excellent for PvE, ranged attackes gives you less need of defence, while having slightly more DPS than a ranger. Too bad there are so little spear attack skills.

For some reason, I love restoration. I always find myself healing in any video game I play (White Mage in FFXI, Druid in WoW, Defender in City of Heroes, etc., etc.), and I really like the style of healing that Ritualists use. I normally run a Weapon Spell-based bar with the addition of Preservation ('cause I like that spirit) in PvE play. In PvP play I'll run a Weapon of Remedy - Reversal of Damage build so that I have some damage output with my healing. It's a fun time.
