WORK IN PROGRESS

“

Ritualists channel other-worldly energies that summon allies from the void and employ mystic binding rituals that bend those allies to the Ritualist's will. They hood their eyes to better commune with spirits that grant great power and protection to Ritualists and their comrades. The energy they channel drives Ritualist skills which enhance the deadliness of an ally's weapon and wreak havoc on an enemy's health.

Ritualists are masters of spirits. They summon lost souls to fight for them, channel life energy and rend their enemies' lives. Ritualists draw on spirit energy and use it to strengthen or heal themselves and others. As a scholar profession, ritualists wear light armor.

Abilities

Essence is the ritualist profession's unique mechanic. As the ritualist summons spirits, essence is built up and powers the spirits, granting them bonus stats. When the ritualist has gained maximum essence, they can bind their spirits to them to transform into Spirit Form. While in Spirit Form, the ritualist gains new skills based on the number of Spirits active when the ability was cast.
