Hi, I just finished this little crazy build with Blessing of moirae / Psionic touch.
Why build ritualist which is not petmancer?
I found Disc of Mani boots: +2 dream/nature so I could use Adept clasp for attack speed and recharge and I love throwing weapons
The damage displayed is laughable (3400 DPS) but combined with Plague and Distort reality it works quite well (I play single player "vanilla" game).
I use Briar ward for boss fights and generally hit them with all I have - Psionic touch, Plague, Distort reality and Distortion wave for slow. Aura is ToW.
From the nature tree I use only Refresh (1point), Briar ward, Plague and Call of the wild.
Wolves for distraction and Strength of the pack only, no healing, just spawn them again when they die.
I wanted sturdy and easy to play char with mix of str and int gear for resists and DA (Tunic of the magi, Visor of Shadowlord, Disc of Mani, Zeno paradox for dodge/avoid - very helpful). Artifact is Elemental rage with 35% attack speed bonus.
She is "hybrid" int/str. Recharge was around 50 (Adept clasp+ Moirae), with Archmage clasps it is about 60. Necessary for Plague and Distort reality.
She is accomplished hero, I just wanted to test it and it works
Until act 4 legendary it was mostly one-hand play - call wolves, Nightmare, ToW, Oak and then just Psionic touch, Distort reality when surrounded. They burned nicely
From Act 4 legendary Plague was necessary for tough monsters (giants).
No big problem with bosses in main quests.
And I finally found Archmage clasps in the Giant king chest
