Lancy's & Falconeye's Proposal
- Issue
- -1- Outdated Concept- (see Ritual Lord & Battle Meditation)
- -Obsolete by Imbagon.
- -Spirit Supporters no longer see any decent play (if any at all) in high level areas.
- -Dreadful energy management compared to other elite-updates (see Ether Prism)
- -Assassin's Promise is 100% superior, requiring more skill and provides greater overall fun factor (see AP Spirit Spammer).
- -Spirits were overpowered in PvP for quite a while; however IIRC that was before the N/Rt nerfs, which might be sufficient to either make a spirit buff safe in PvP or do a split.
- -2- Nearly all Binding Rituals worth spamming with Ritual Lord are too expensive and never last longer then 6 seconds (see Lancy1214's Active Binding Rituals).
- -Some Spirits already have quick recharges compared to their durations.
- -As I'm striving for Binding Rituals to becoming more active, a recharge reduction of 50% would be a little harsh considering the vast party wide buffs that these rituals have to offer and the smaller recharge times now
- -A ritualist specializing in summoning spirits could use this to cast the rituals even faster, avoiding interruption (most of the time), strive for a longer duration, and increased reliability/survivability of summoned creatures in general.
