w00t! Ritualists can now summon Dragons!

Here, this is from the march 13th gamespot article of guildwars factions:

ArenaNet admits that it has fallen a bit behind in delivering the next chapter in Guild Wars, but Factions promises to make up for it. The company has learned many lessons from the launch of Guild Wars and applied these to Factions. There's a lot of new stuff to see and do in Factions, and as we played around in some PVP battles, we were amazed at some of the new features in the game. The rituatalist is a spirit summoner that can conjure up huge dragons and other creatures to fight for him or her, and the assassin has the ability to "teleport" on top of a target and deliver a rapid number of killing blows in a matter of seconds. Factions looks great, and considering how good the original Guild Wars is, there's going to be a lot in here for online role-playing fans to digest. The game is almost done, and we can expect Factions to launch online on April 27, though the retail version will be released a day later.

All I can say is: w00t!

Yes it looks cool, check the videos links here.

don't let alot pvp players know this because they may try to get guild wars to change that idea. I think they will be able somon more than dragons but yea I like the idea

Sorry, but I think Gamespot got their facts wrong. I don't believe ritualists will be able to summon dragons at all. I watched the videos and all the spirits looked just like every other ritualist spirit out there, ie: not a dragon. Ritualists summoning dragons just makes no sense.

Ahhhhh............that takes me back to Final Fantasy 8 that had Guardian Forces that would help you fight.



GF's FTW!

If you have the prorder, check the manual.

*AMUSING BUILD ALERT*

10 ritualists with dragons..HELL YA

lets keep hush hush for now because pvp players will start to cry. to all the players out there i am wrong pve make not a big deal

This kinda hints at it in the skills listed, but i didnt see a skill specifically stating that you can create a creature. Most everything listed was for summoning spirits.


Explosive Growth - Enchantment Spell

For 15 seconds, whenever you create a creature, up to 5 foes near that creature are struck for 20 lightning damage.

15 2 45

I wonder if a minion would also be considered as a creature. Since that would be cool... in stead of exploding the corpses create minons from them and get dmg over time and an aoe

What if my pet dies in battle and I res it? I wonder if that would be considered creating a creature.

Where in the manual does it mention Dragons?

I'm pretty sure the preorder doesn't come with a manual until the 27th/April, when you get the actual game.

i dont know, but the manual is designed to be vague enough to excite noobs and make mountains out of things which are really molehills

I agree mods can you close this thread it is pointless

I know... it keeps dragon on and on...

You are so funny, best post i read was from you lol

I think I have a following. I am known as the blackman on other GW threads. I took a break from fighting with hard head pvp players for a while. I am also playing D&D. if you read under Ritualist page 13. In the preorder maunal it is there.

It says Spawning summon and comand otherworldly allies. You can also read on page 15 under rangr/Ritualist.

to anet don't change a thing it is agood idea.

geez, how many of you just got your panties all wet, reading about the op, you know what, i'll believe it when i see it..

Anet, make dragons a ranger pet for my birthday!
