= Main Characters and Builds = Note: The vast majority of my playing is done solo with heroes and henchies and that's where I use these builds. Feel free to use/modify to your little heart's content.

Build:Rt/any Painful Ritual Lord
This build is an offensive version of the Ritual Lord (take that as you will). This is the build I'm using 99.9% of the time when soloing both in missions and skill caps.

{{skill bar|Boon of Creation|Ritual Lord|Bloodsong|Shadowsong|Dissonance|Shelter|Anguished Was Lingwah|Painful Bond} Usage Immediately cast Anguished Was Lingwah and Boon of Creation upon entering an instance. Keep BoC up at all times. When you encounter a group of enemies, cast Painful Bond on them, drop the ashes and cast Bloodsong. Be sure to cast Ritual Lord while Blodsong is activating. Now get creative. Cast either Shadowsong or Dissonance depending on which will be most useful. If it looks like a long fight, pull back and cast Shelter. Just keep spawning and bonding until the fight is over. OACjAyiE5OOzgZ58sl5seHzqJA

Build: Rt/any Quick Channeler
This is my version of a channeler making use of Weapon of Quickening. I'm using this the other 0.01% of the time I'm not using the first build.

Gaze of Fury is optional. It just amuses me to screw with the ranger spirits. Usage Again, cast Anguished Was Lingwah as soon as you enter an area. Cast Weapon of Quickening and keep it going constantly. Select a target and spam until dead. Use Ancestors' Rage if anyone gets too close or pick a tank surrounded by enemies and cast on them. Rinse, repeat. OACjAuiMJNeTKXxeZe5OmGb6JA

Build: Rt/any Ritual Lord
Every Ritualist must have a version of this build. I have a few, including the first build listed. If I'm heading out with a PUG or my guild, I'm loading this one and it generally does the trick.

Usage Cast Boon of Creation upon entering an area (sensing a patern here?) When the group attacks, stay out of aggro range and bind Shelter, Displacement and Union. Of course, cast Ritual Lord while Shelter is activating. Try to keep these up as much as possible. They will, of course, die before recharged but you can keep decent coverage. Bind Pain and Soothing if you have time. Note: This is one of the few times I use Pain rather than Anguished Was Lingwah. There are two reasons for this. First, you don't want to get close enough to use the Pain Spirit most of the time so carrying the ashes is pointless. Secondly, by the time you're using this build, you probably have an item to boost max energy and you lose that bonus when carrying the ashes. OACjSuhEJPOzgp1Lc+4+myzLGA

Build: Rt/any I'm not a Healer but Play one on TV
I hate this build. I hate Ritualist healing builds. Ritualist != Monk, but try explaining that to a PUG that can't find another healer. I'll run this build with either Preservation or Attuned Was Songkai and neither really works for me. Most of the time I end up yelling, "I'm not a f'ing monk!!" as the party dies a painful death.

Options You can swap Attuned Was Songkai for Preservation. You can swap Shelter for Recuperation, but it has a longer cast time. Usage Stay out of range and cast Recuperation and/or Preservation. Cast Resiliant Weapon and Vengeful Weapon on the tanks. Spam the rest or your heals as necessary and keep at least one spirit up for the bonuses. OACjAShM5ORTp5kbiR8qeizLGA
