Curse

Hey guys,
An a Ele who has just brought fractions (only had proph previously) and was looking at interesting combinations with ritualists. I quickly took interest to both their channeling and restoration trees and was wondering if anyone has made a successful combination with one of these?
Channeling magic has some interesting lightning moves that would complement perhaps or lightning or other tree?
Restoration magic is quite useful and would help keep an earth ele alive?
Im interested in your opinions and attempts. Further more, is it possible to change our secondry to Rt like the other classes, or can we only do this with the proph classes. I was considering starting a new ele anyhow in fractions...

1) Factions, not Fractions.

2) Ritualist is designed as a support class. Their nuking is not going to work better than ele nuking by design. You could, of course, use your high energy pool to spam certain Ritualist skills - Weapon of Remedy, Vengeful Weapon, Splinter Weapon, or just generally the Restoration healing spells. Unless you try to "fake it" as a Ritualist, though, the best use of such a secondary for your ele will probably be in providing a hard res (Flesh of My Flesh or Death Pact Signet).

3) You can change your secondary to a Factions profession once you go through the equivalent of "ascending" for that campaign. In Factions, this comes after the second mainland mission, in Senji's Corner. After you beat it, you can pay to change your secondary in that outpost or in the Great Temple of Balthazar (and switch it whenever you wish).

4) If you are interested in Ritualists so much, I would recommend starting a new character in Factions. With a Rt/A, you could unlock all the skills for both professions on one character, as well as get the "authentic" Canthan experience with a "native"

You can certainly change your secondary to ritualist no problem.

Rits can be a quite effective lightning "ele" just using ritualist skills.

suggest you check out Resiliant weapon and Splinter weapon

some of the other weapons can interrupt or heal or blind so may fit in your earth build.

Quite a bit of energy management in rit as well should you need it.

[splinter weapon]
Most damaging spell in the game.

[Ancestors' rage] because it's good in every possible situation

That build needs more Glyph of Lesser Energy or Mind Blast and less Meteor before I'd be happy playing it.

it also uses a Nightfall Elite, which is no use to the OP.

Would maybe suggest something like:

[build prof=E/Rt name="Something Fiery" box fire=12+1+1 energy=8+1 channeling=10][Elemental Attunement][Fire Attunement][Rodgort's Invocation][Fireball][No Skill][Ancestors' Rage][Splinter Weapon][Flesh of my Flesh][/build]

...as an alternative Prophecies / Factions version.

ah yes sorry
but i think that you can replace the skills with other useful skills
for the same it can be a SF nuker or like you did a dual attunement nuker

Just putting Ancestor's Rage and Splinter Weapon on an ele bar increases it's effectiveness greatly.

[Healing Renewal;AGKSIzwDxbyJNFe1CaxwccC]

keep in mind Ether Renewal lasts 21 seconds now :/

Rothan Celt · Jul 03, 2008, 08:03 PM // 20:03

Normal ele build
+
Splinter wep
Ancestors rage
I always find theres enough room for 2ndary skills that generally just helps out the party Splinter wep and AR spam on a ele rocks!
