User:BrianG/Rt/Me Echo Doom

This build is designed to get the most out of one of the most powerful damage dealing Ritualist skills, Doom.

Equipment
Shaman's Armor is recommended since there should be 3 spirits up at most times. If you change the spirits to defensive ones that will die quickly, Halcyon's might be better. Recommended weapons are a wand and focus that both increase the chance to halve the casting time of Spawning Power spells.

Usage

 * Start by casting Boon of Creation and then placing all of your spirits. Restoration can be optionally skipped until needed, but it will increase the damage from Doom if it is also recharging.
 * Use Echo, followed by Doom. Use both copies of Doom to deal as much damage as possible to one target.
 * As soon as any of your binding rituals are recharged, recast them, even if they are still alive.
 * If your team could use a health boost, you can optionally use Feast of Souls on any remaining spirits before you recast them. You can also use this skill to cleanup your spirits and top up your team's health before moving on to the next battle.

Counters

 * Backfire or other anti-spamming skills.
 * Interrupts will reduce the effectiveness of your spirits, but they will still be recharging to power Doom
 * The build has no defensive skills so you should try to avoid aggro.

Variants

 * Offensive spirits suit this build best, but it can be adapted to use defensive ones instead such as:
 * Union
 * Displacement
 * For PvP, you may want to switch Restoration and Feast of Souls for:
 * Resurrection Signet
 * Rupture Soul
