This is my build:
Spitefull Spirit, Generous Was, Resilient Weapon, Mend Body and Soul, Price of Failure, Mark of pain, Faintheartedness, Defile Enchantments.

Kill them all.

Please rate it. Thnx.

Slayer is the name, killing is my game.

That is not massive damage.....what if I decide not attack you?
what this can done....it's like Necro trying have better SS....what is stupid because necro with 16 att points is better than you with 12 or lesser....

what if I attack you with..hm...Ele? can you kill me?

Bankai · Apr 06, 2007, 07:59 PM // 19:59

Isn't this... you know... the PvE part?

Dr Strangelove · Apr 06, 2007, 09:38 PM // 21:38

Uh... if you're going to fill your bar with necro curses, why are you a rit again?

lennymon · Apr 06, 2007, 11:12 PM // 23:12

I rate it low. Offensive spirit spammer or channeling is more threatening. I run into alot of hex removal, but the straight up offensive power of a Ritualist thankfully doesn't depend on using a majority of skills from the Curse line.

erfweiss · Apr 07, 2007, 04:41 AM // 04:41

Why would you use faintheartedness and Spiteful Spirit at the same time anyhow? Slowing down the amount of damage they cause on themselves. No form of Energy Management.

Brian the Gladiator · Apr 12, 2007, 12:52 AM // 00:52

That build sucks. I rate it a 1 out of 10. For constructive criticism, Don't take faintheartedness and SS, try bringing Reckless Haste + SS. Post your attributes in the build so I can actually see a "real" build because as is now, I see half of a really bad build.
Word of Advice: when trying to decide whether or not your build is any good, think to yourself, "If I were to switch the professions around (make it a N/Rt) would the build get stronger???" If that is the case, than the build is bad. As your build stands now, it would be better as a necro. IMO - This build even as a N/Rt is bad so if I were you I would give up on trying to make a cursing ritualist.

TGgold · Apr 12, 2007, 01:39 AM // 01:39

I rate this a 1.

First: Fatinheartedness and SS have absolutely no synergy.

Second: Nothing in this build is allowing you to throw out more SSs than a normal necro (which would have helped compensate for the spec of only 12 in the attribute).

Third: Generous deletes your weapon mod. You don't even had that 20% chance to halve the casting/recharge of SS or Defile.

Basically, you have a weaker SS that's triggering less often. WOW. How impressive.

And the rest of the skills? How do you have time to use them appropriately when you're trying to herald this as a dmg build?

In PvE? I guess this is passable. But it's nowhere near "massive damage".

You will be failing at your own game by playing this build my friend

You have no energy management, and none of your skills are light on energy. There is absolutely no reason to be a rit, in fact, if you were a necro you could use soul reaping as your energy management and put a few points into restoration.

0 of 10 atm >.<

Sir Pandra Pierva · Apr 12, 2007, 03:24 PM // 15:24

That build sucks. No Energy managment and like others have said faithhertedness is not good with SS. Even as a N/Rt it wouldn't be that good.

Fishmonger · Apr 14, 2007, 02:05 AM // 02:05

sry bud, but i gotta add to the flaming here as well.

this build is terrible. short and sweet. first of all, SS and faintheartedness? thats the worst combo since iron mist+ flare.

second, you ENTIRELY missed the purpose of being a rit by loading up on nec skills.

third.....iono. im still laughing.

0.5/10 for actually finding this forum at all. back to the drawing board for ye

slayer5555 · Apr 15, 2007, 11:45 PM // 23:45

Well it's strong in ab, if u know how to use it. Plus my energy ma,agment is good cause i have 65 energy.
Second: The healing goes very well to
Third: u don't believe me? do scrimmage me.
Fourth: I play this char very long, and i'm not that stupid to use SS and Faintheartedness at the same time... I use SS on 1 target and if someone else attacks me i use faintheartednes to gimme some more time.
So don't judge it before u tried it.

$hade. · Apr 16, 2007, 12:21 AM // 00:21

How do you get 65 energy?.......When you're a Rit.

Also I go with all the other statements above because I DID try this build and died miserably.

If you're going to have all those necro spells then you might a well just go Necro Primary.

Next time post your attributes too.

FoxBat · Apr 16, 2007, 04:57 AM // 04:57

Price of Failure is a failure without some other blind or miss aid.

Div · Apr 16, 2007, 01:28 PM // 13:28

Just because your energy is high doesn't mean your emanagement is good. My monk can go above 70 energy, but I'll still quickly run out of energy (especially with those 2 pips of regen). This build reminds me of the wammo that tries to do a little of everything, but fails. There's some defense and healing, a little bit of damage, some shutdown, some hexes. It sucks in pve (I'd rather take a channeling rit build), and it sucks in AB (again, I'd rather take a channeling build since you're a rit, or spells that don't make each other suck).

slayer5555 · Apr 16, 2007, 10:23 PM // 22:23

Well it works very good on me, so i'm happy about that. I almost enver die in ab or Ra.

NateC4 · Apr 18, 2007, 02:16 AM // 02:16

This is why no one takes RA and AB seriously. The reason you almost never die is because anyone with a basic understanding of the game will see you cast SS and immediately target someone actually posing a threat.

i totally agree, with such a small amount of damage you can cause, you are seen as a target to kill on spare time...

Month old flaming threads are not a good place to post on.
