This Ritualist takes advantage of the synergy between Attuned Was Songkai, the spirit Empowerment, and Renewing Surge to deal a steady flow of low-cost damage. It is primarily meant for PVE, but with some changes it functions well in AB and competitive missions.

Attuned Was Songkai

Empowerment

Renewing Surge

Spirit Rift

Spirit Burn

Channeled Strike

Ghostly Haste

Flesh of My Flesh

• In AB you will not need a resurrect.

Equipment

• Halcyon's Armor for the extra energy never hurts, or Oracle's Armor for the armor bonus.
• Weapons are not crucial to this build as you will not be using them most of the time.

Usage

Begin by summoning the spirit of Empowerment, and follow up with Ghostly Haste and Attuned Was Songkai. Pick a target, preferably a soft one, and use Spirit Rift, Spirit Burn, and Channeled Strike, with Renewing Surges in between. In this way you can keep dealing damage while your stronger spells recharge.

Counters

Backfire; this is a spamming build. Energy denial will not hurt much, unless Attuned Was Songkai is interrupted.

Variants

• Lively Was Naomei can be used as an AoE resurrect.
• Draw Spirit is useful to have when paired with an NPC that is constantly on the move.
• Destruction could replace Empowerment with its low recharge, or Bloodsong to increase damage. As long as a spirit is there to trigger key skills, the particular spirit is up to personal preference.
• Ancestors' Rage is useful if there is a tank in your party, or if a monster somehow finds its way to you.
• Soothing Memories is a useful self-heal, synergizing well with Attuned, but to make it truly effective more points would have to be moved into Restoration Magic.
