Skills - Ritual Lord
1 pages • Page 1
Any ritualist expecting to be able to maintain useful spirits such as Union, Shelter, Displacement and to a lesser extent Recuperation simply _must_ have this or Soul Twisting (although some may argue for Oath Shot, it requires further attribute spread, restricting your spirits' strength). At 12, as is unstated here, it reduces recharge by 63%, making 60s recharges of many spirits about 24 seconds - meaning that they are very maintainable (in 4v4 you can achieve 0 spirit downtime, in 8v8 you can achieve 10s spirit downtime, which is great compared to what you have without this). Add that to a good focus/wand combo and you have many spirits recharging in an unheard-of 12 seconds.
The only issues here is the depreciating energy cycle you put yourself on by using it. With a 30s duration and 30s recharge, at 10 energy you'll be hard pressed to keep your energy up (even with boon of creation - another skill which you pretty much need to have), after all, you're casting all those 10-15 energy spirits constantly. Still, it's more than worth it - that much mass prot is something only a ritualist can do.

This is also a very nice skill to carry with you. The fact that it is not an enchantment is a plus.
Since spirits die quickly, assuming they lose health when the effects are activated.. this is too hard to pass up.
There was also a big discussion(which can't be linked) about Ritual Lord and Soul Twisting, Ritual Lord being the most favored in using spirits. I'm gonna have to wait to cap this skill and see how useful it is, it should be worth the elite slot.

Aww, can anybody help me? I would like to capture this skill, but my guild and I are Luxon. Most people I have asked have said you can only get there by completing the "Befriend The Kurzicks" quest and most after it, but I cannot get 10,000 Kurzick faction. 
The only way I got all that in Luxon was because of Alliance Battles, the quests don't give enough and every time try another game you get faction I only get 50 . Thanks for your help

I recall capping this skill outside of Unwaking Waters at the Luxon side.
It may have been a lucky spawn but that's where I found it.
You can reach this place after you do "Journey to the Whirlpool" from Leviathan Pits after you finish Gyala Hatchery.

They don't just add up (that'd be over 100% recharge reduce)
One activates, then the other does It seems. Haven't tested the order though
Like Ritual Lord cuts it by whatever percentage, then Serpents cuts down the new recharge. or vica versa.
Like if it recharged in 100 secs, and Ritual lord made that 20 secs instead, serpents would cut down that 20 secs. Or the ther way around, I just know they dont directly stack, but they DO both work.

Without checking i can safely say Puebert that your wrong, Rit Lord is a skill.
They will not cancel out, but as was stated only 50% can be achieved by a combination of spells on recharge times.
Rit lord can easily hit 68% on its own, so Serpents is useless combination with it. get some 20% recharge weps is the only way to down the recharge time ontop of Rit Lord now.
