Soul Twisting Agony
A combination of GW:Soul Twisting with fast recharging spirits and several AoE skills allow the Ritualist to create an effective amount of damage throughout most of the enemies encountered and allow for spike heals in emergencies.

Attributes and Skills
[build prof=Rt/Any Spawning=12+1+3 Channeling=12+1 Restoration=3][Agony][Soul Twisting][Life][Destruction][Essence Strike][Optional][Rupture Soul][Optional][/build]


 * First optional slot is set for a spawning power skill such as GW:Spirit to Flesh, GW:Feast of Souls, GW:Explosive Growth or GW:Spirit's Gift.
 * Spirit's Gift also heals other spirits.
 * The last optional slot can be used for a ressurect like GW:Flesh of My Flesh.

Equipment

 * Armor is more dependant on the player's preference.
 * A +1 Channeling mod is reccomended to improve the damage of GW:Agony.

Usage

 * Before battle, be sure to use GW:Soul Twisting on a spirit since the effect lasts until you make a new spirit.
 * When entering battle, cast Agony and keep watch on the spirit's health.
 * Cast other spirits while Agony does it's work, and right before Agony dies, use Soul Twisting on it, but if it dies too quickly, other spirits should be avaliable to use Soul Twisting on. (Make a note that Soul Twisting can be used while using other skills since it has no cast time)
 * If melee enemies come close, use GW:Rupture Soul to blind them, allowing time to cast another spirit to use Rupture Soul again.
 * Agony should never be used without Soul Twisting active, it isn't worth the wait in the heat of battle. Another spirit should be cast and Soul Twisted instead, otherwise the effectiveness of this build is sorely reduced.

Counters

 * Agony is inturrupted.
 * Heavy inturruption or knockdown.
 * AoE that kills spirits.
