I made this topic to look at the benefits of each class combination for ritualists.
Ri/W: Since the ritualist is a caster, and some of his spells seem to rely on proximity to his spirits, this does not seem like a very beneficial combination, unless you focus on the defensive skills of the warrior such as the various stances, which is helpful in PvP where casters can be prime targets, but in PvE the defense seems unnecessary.
Ri/R: Similar to the warrior, the Ranger offers a few dedensive options, and various attack skills, but it seems to me the bow attacks would not work well without expertise or the ability to use superior ranger runes. Although the possibility of synergy between ranger and ritualist spirits is intriguing.
Ri/N: Now this is an interesting setup, it is yet to be known wether the ritualist primary attribute would benefit necromancer minions, or wether the ritualist has decent healing abilities, but if it does, this seems to be a plausible minion master build (a battery necro and either OOB or a ritualist energy management skill could solve the no soul reaping problem). Also, it seems that the ritualists spirits could benefit the group while the necromancer curses simultanously hinder the enemy.
Ri/Mo: If the ritualist has good energy management skills, and/or its own healing skills, this could turn out to be a potent combination of spirit buffing and healing.
Ri/Me: Similar to the necromancer, this could be a powerful combination of benefitting allies with spirits and harming the enemies with hexes.
Ri/E: Since ele is a high energy use class, and the ritualist already seems to have decent damage capabilities, this class combination might not work too well, unless the ritualist turns out to have some sort of awesome energy management skill or spirits that increase elemental damages.
Ri/A: Like the warrior, a melee class would not work too well with a ritualist, but perhaps the Assasin will have a nice line of defensive skills the ritualist could benefit from.
Feel free to disagree, agree, and discuss away, but dont make it into an argument please.
