User:Saranis/Ritualist Builds/Channeling Surge

Channeling Surge uses the Channeling Magic line of quick recharge spells to lay continuous pressure on the enemy.

Equipment

 * Your choice of Ritualist armor, Halycon's is recommended.
 * Channelers Headwrap of Superior Channeling Magic.


 * 20/20 channeling staff with a +1 to channeling staff wrapping.

Usage

 * Keep Cruel Was Daoshen and Ghostly Haste active at all times.
 * Stay within earshot of Bloodsong and use Spirit Burn whenever recharged.
 * Use Essence Strike and Signet of Spirits when you run low on Energy.
 * Gaze from Beyond can be used with enemy Spirits and not just your own. However since Bloodsong will steal life for itself whenever it attacks, the Life Drain from Gaze is not that bad.

Counters

 * Daze/Interupts.
 * Increased recharge time skills such as Diversion.
 * Destroying all the Spirits in the area will cause 2 of your skills to become less effective.

Variants

 * Cruel Was Daoshen can be swapped out for another Item Spell.
 * Warmonger's Weapon may be useful to bring along against enemy casters.
 * Spirit Burn might be replaced with Channeled Strike if you would like a more potent spell at a higher energy cost.
