When to buy Ritual
Consider picking up Ritual if you're playing as Ranger or Speedy, especially if you have a high Damage output and want to enhance your survivability through Life Steal. It's effective when your Damage exceeds 50 and you can afford the Engineering loss.
When to skip Ritual
Skip Ritual if you're focusing on Engineering builds or characters that rely heavily on Engineering for their effectiveness, as the penalty can hinder your overall performance.

Best characters for Ritual
Characters that pick up Ritual in our curated build pool — with notes on why the combo works where we have them.
Knight
2 builds
Ritual boosts both damage% and life steal, two stats Knight loves for late-game bossing. The engineering penalty is irrelevant for pure melee builds, making this a very efficient offensive and sustain item.
Vampire
1 build
Ritual directly boosts both damage and Life Steal, two stats Vampire converts into incredible sustain and scaling. The engineering penalty is irrelevant on his typical melee tank builds, making this almost pure upside.
