Ive had few issues healing large groups with this and can even heal a single tank at the start of the deep. I am luxon so getting to rit lord would be someothing akin to a pain in my royal behind. Thus I adopted Perservation as my elite. Good length works well for what I do and a short recharge.
Preservation isn't a bad Elite Spirit at all, the only downside is that it's way too random. It could end up healing a fully healed character instead of someone who needs it, or even worse, a Minion.
Alternative Elites to consider are Soul Twisting (keep it up with Recuperation and you'll never have to wait for it to recharge or cast for the entire time outside of a town), Ritual Lord (definitely if you manage to get it, getting it is the problem on Luxon side, don't worry too much getting it if it's that hard) and Attuned Was Songkai (only if you have difficulties with Energy management, contrary to what people say, it's certainly isn't bad).
Ive rarely seen my perservation heal someone that was fully healed... It has healed me once or twice when im at full health. But im also standing near it 99% of the time to use mend body and soul. Ill consider soul twist since it should be easy to obtain... If the rit boss shows up thats the problem I could spend a week doing that mission over and over and never see it show up -.-..This game is anti Rit when it comes to trying to get the elite you want.
About Ritual Lord, I honestly don't think it's harder to get on the Luxon side as it is on the Kurzick side. All you need to do is make sure the Dragon Hunter quest isn't activated, and the boss (Whispering Ritual Lord, and Irukandji) should be there. I did encounter him when I didn't have that quest running, and he's not hard to beat at all.
Can you get to said boss from tangle corpse. Or would anyone here enjoy helping escort me to said boss.. I cant pay much but id greatly enjoy the help. Add Holy Dragon Goddess to your friend list...
There are only two known Rit Bosses with Ritual Lord to capture. The one I mentioned, Whispering Ritual Lord, or Spiritroot Mossbeard in The Eternal Grove. If you really need help finding Whispering Ritual Lord, just add my character (Aya Spiritweaver) to your friends list and watch for me online. Just a heads up, though, I won't be available for tomorrow morning or afternoon due to a social event, but check for me during the evening (dinner time or later).
It looks like a good build, but you should know that the restoration line provides a good deal of flexibility depending on the zone you're in. Use a different weapon spell depending on the situation: (but don't keep more than 1 in your bar, I find that to be a waste most of the time)
Weapon of Warding: For opponents that don't hex or condition and when you're expecting lots of melee attack.
Weapon of Resil: If you're facing people that like to hex or condition, this should be on your bar. Its the best out of all of them.
Weapon of Ven: Heal + damage is never a bad thing, but don't even think about using this one unless you're lacking offensive punch. You could do better IMHO.
I also strongly recommend using Resilient was X... its an instant cast hold item that gives you regen and condition removal. You can use this ability with skills that have bonuses for hold items and then drop it if you run low on energy, it only has a 10 second recharge.
Why be shy? :D
It's easy to get to the Whispering Ritual Lord in Jade Sea area! I will show you.
it's nice to combo 2 weapon spells on the same target. Dump something fast like Vengeful Weapon to hold off death til u can complete casting of Weapon of Warding.
With only Recuperation and Preservation as spirits I think Soul Twisting would be better than Ritual Lord, since u have to drop the Elite spirit to take either of them, leaving u with only 1 spirit in the build, which is perfect for Soul Twisting.
Depending on what area ur playing, Consume Soul could be better. In PvE areas where spirits are used by mobs (e.g. Ranger Wardens in Kurzick zones, Jellyfish mobs in Luxon zones) u can get a good supply of spirits to convert into heals.

I do believe the locations of both ritual lord bosses are after the faction specific missions (eternal grove and gyala hatchery), so don't worry about getting there without advancing through the game first..
