At 12 in Restoration Magic it last for 10 seconds and steals 29 health each time.

There's one skill that does extra damage when you're holding an item. Channeled Strike I believe?

Yes, but there is alot of ppl who does not know the differance and still do it anyways. I am a farmer myself and know what its all about. People who don't know the differance is where the problems begin. Also, some people will lye just to get into a group and when we are half way through will start trying to be a 55 monk. Or necro, or memer for that matter. I didn't mean to say the idea was stupid just the people who are so stupid they wanna try to use it in missions. I have come across many people who wanna try out a new 55hp build and wanna join a group instead of henchmen and screw us all. If you cant use that character in both ways then you need to stop doing missions with it. I stand by everything I said though, with the exception that I didn't mean to make the idea of a farmer 55 stupid. If you use it for the sole purpose of farming good for you. I will stick to my warrior. If i see you in a mission area though I will be the first to open my mouth and proceed to cuss you out. Bottom line is if your %%hp keep your a** out of missions and quest. You screw it up for everyone. Like this guy is going to one time or another wanna try to take his 55hp ritualist into a mission that he thinks he can dominate in. Then he will screw it up for the rest of his group. Then he will be pissed when someone call him stupid. They will get into a argument and someone will wind up gettng reported cause one person wants to be a dumba** and try something newwhile people are needing this mission or quest. KEEP IT OUT OS THESE AREAS and i will have nothing more to say. If not and I meet you I will have something to say and you wont like it I promise you that. As always good night have fun.

There is nothing wrong with 55hp. Most people only use it for solo farming. There will be no problem if a 55hp ritualist build it made. Don't worry about it! Do I have to repeat this? No one really ever uses 55hp in missions unless there mother dropped them over and over again on there heads at age 1! Just don't worry about it. 55hp builds should not be nerfed because people are being total retards and useing them in missions. If they do tell them to go kill them self and then you should just forget the experiance because its not really a big deal. If you want to insult and talk badly about the 55hp builds make your own thread and talk about it there(if anyone ever goes to it). Everyone likes 55hp builds. Also if you see me in a mission area I'd perfer you didn't cuss at me because I do missions but never as a 55hp unless I'm soloing it for fun. I do not wish to ruin someone elses day by being a 55hp monk in a mission with a group.

Now, Anyone else have any ideas for a 55hp ritualist please continue to post them here! And please stop talking about how bad 55hp builds are on this thread because thats not what I made this for!

thats pretty good. You might need to have restoration at 16 to use a 55hp build with ritualist though. Which doesn't really matter because you probably won't need any points on healing because you'll gain health from this skill(and take no dmage at all).

Gaile has said along the lines of "soloing a content which are meant for a party is not justified", I can't remember the exact quote/quotes but it's something along the lines of what I just mentioned.

So if you want to solo a place intended for a party, expect it to be nerfed and don't cry about it.

awesome 55 build for ritualist, which literally takes no damage
Actually I was part of discussing that build, and Ensign proved it cannot work because the elite operated the other way round from what the OP thought, it didnt give constant cover from attacks.

Spirit Rift is also a very nice AoE spell that works like Lightning Surge. I'm sure you could combine a couple of these.

Not that I'm condoning/damning the use of 55hp builds. I'm flat indifferent.
what if you also threw in a death nova for some more spike? just a thought since i didnt see any secondary restrictions

Well I don't think a 55 hp ritualist build with ashes would work, since the ashes would cancel out your weapon set

55 hp characters ruins the game! I can't begin to count how many times I been in missions where some idiot thought it was cool to bring a 55 monk, or necro.
Wow, you sure type interesting when you get angered over a computer game.

Quote:
Then cause they didn't know didly squat bout how to use that character in the area, kept dying.
How do you know the area they kept dying in was easy for them to stay alive? Do you have a 55monk and you have tried it? In which case, you're a hypocrite, if not, you're ignorant; therefore, you don't look like the brightest pebble on the beach in either case :]. I also wonder how they "kept dying". I mean, did the Queen of Shiba res them or did you? Rebirth and restore life don't work, so I take it to mean you wasted your res signet on a 55monk you hate so much. Good choice!

Personally I thinnk A-Net should find some way to nerf these builds to make PvE gameplay better.
Well I don't thinnnnnnnk anyone asked what you thought. Did they?

Quote:
I think it is rediculous that people are already thinking of making a 55hp ritualist. YOU ARE STUPID!!! The main reason i say this, is because you will want to bring your 55hp character into a mission and ruin it for the rest of the people in your group.
Arseholes can be clever. No matter what your intentions are here, you're blindingly insulting people without knowing the full facts; therefore, the only one looking stupid right now is yourself. In addition, I've been a 55 necro and I've been a great use. I've been a battery, low health = low sac :]. I've also been a 55monk/warrior in UW with a team, helping to get a spider. The irony behind it, I helped for free, now if I want a spider I can make a team with no 55monks and fail to get the spider. If I really want to get one, I have to pay a 55monk to help.

Quote:
Your wanting to make a build like this only decreases the pleasure of the game for other people.
OH RLY? Yes, I can act retarded too.

Quote:
Like someone said earlier, " this is a multi-player game, learn to play with others not just yourself".
Quake3 is a multiplayer game too, doesn't mean you have to have a team does it? Infact, I've got sponsors and money from _NOT_ having a team (not in guildwars though).

I have a 55monk, you've blindedly insulted me and people like me. The words, "YOU ARE STUPID" is offensive, so your appology is fake. You're as much of a fraud as they are. Twice as stupid too [sarcasm]sorry if you get offended[/sarcasm]

Quote:
but I get tired of having to do missions 20 times to get it done cause of a 55 character. Have a nice day!!!
All of the missions can be done with hench so there you have it, your team you crave for.

Have a bad night!

It would still work. You would gain 10+ each time they hit nolifying away the 10 damage they deal to you when they attack you. while holding the ashes you wouldn't even need healing breeze. Remember, while holding the ashes you steal health.

Stop complaining already! 55hp is a great way of using skills, it isn't the lazy farm build everybody thinks! you have to watch out for shatterers, life stealers, not losing ur skills and doing damage at the same time, seriously try to make a phonecall, eat and farm with a 55hp at the same time, this was do-able with the wamo; cyclone/bonnetis thing but with a 55hp.... it's just a lot harder and since a-net is nerfing everything wich makes it possible to even make money, most people are forced to use 55hp or take a full hench party and get crap drops.

Im not used to do that, but ill be serious now. 55 hp characters IMO are like imperfections on a skin of a beauty. IMO its time for them to make the areas impossible for them to farm/tank. Why ? Because its abused plenty times too much, making the players addicted to the build because in their opinion is the best way to get money. If youre looking for build for that, fine, i dont mind. But next time consider what other people think about it. I once made a 55 monk, farmed a bit with him, and then i felt its simply not fair for other people, i felt like im using hacks, in order to get myself some imaginary money. When other people try to do it the hard way - the fair way, i just felt sorry for them(after that i deleted my monk). You can think what you wish, but i did how i felt i needed to. Ending my comment, id just like you to know, the game is just a game, and it isn't popular JUST because of uw 2-man farming, 55-monking or other of this sort.

actually, I 55hp farm alot. And I think it is very lazy. It being hard to do while eating or makeing a phone call probably isn't the best example. I find it easy :P. Its probably about the same hardness level foreverything in GW. lol, the part that makes it hard is its so boreing. Although 55hp running can be fun, and challenging. Farming really is lazy! but boring...

As I look more and more at ritualist skills I'll post my own ideas here!

Thanks
