Ritualist Profession ?
It’ll be released “when it’s ready.”
It was already announced.
Really? I must have missed that announcement. Do you have a link?
Ritualist Profession ?
The ritualists were a fantasy version of engineers; ArenaNet said as much when they were released, all those years ago. Now that the game has real engineers, those have already taken the ritualist role. So no, don’t expect to see this profession any time soon.
Probably never. They took out the core sprit raising mechanic and gave it to the engie as turrets and the guardian as spirit weapons. The Revenant reputedly has some aspects of the Rit also.
ANet may give it to you.
I honestly don’t think that the Rit will make an appearance again. What they seem to have done is integrate it into other professions (Guardian with summoning weps and Revenant with “channeling heroes”).
So long Treeface.
“…Kormir? I know not of whom you speak.”
Revenant will take in some of the ritualist like qualities along with a little bit of dervish (at least thats what can be perceived with what we’ve seen)
Prior to that Guardian actually had/have some of the rit elements, without the aesthetics (spirit weapons instead of actual spirits)
Now I really loved ritualists in GW1 and would by no means be against seeing them as they were again… buut with the above in mind I don’t think we will see the ritualist of old return. Can just hope the revenant will bring in more of the feel from it, where guardian purely had a minor mechanic.
Maybe the Ritualist will return as a Necromancer or Revenant specialization. Otherwise, I don’t think the odds favor a return of the Ritualist.
Maybe one of the revenants legends they haven’t shown will give skills similar to what a ritualist did? At least I think that would be sweet! =P
The Mesmer took over a lot of the Rit mechanics also when they went from casting hexes and interrupting to making clones. The three older professions, Mesmer, engie and guard, and now Revenant all have pieces of the Rit. That profession has been truly dismembered and redistributed.
Rest in peace my Guild Wars 1 Rit.
Or should I say, Rest in Pieces.
ANet may give it to you.
