Overview
A power DPS build for Ritualist.
Skill Bar
- Ritualist spends much less long in Shroud than other Necromancer specialisations, which strongly inclines it towards the higher sustained damage of Spear over other weapons.
Skill Variants
怨恨纹章 can be swapped out if extra utility is needed:
鬼灵缚爪 - AoE pull for easier cleaving.
腐蚀毒云 - destroys projectiles.
召唤血肉地虫 - 1200 range teleport. Can also bodyblock certain projectiles (e.g. Old Tom's poison whirl).
Template Code

死亡冰寒 is poor damage against against targets with no boons, so you could run 
恶意坚韧 to boost your life force.
Equipment
Equipment Variants
- You want to aim for ~2005-2010 precision (with
超级精确法印). 
超级学者符文 would be a tiny DPS loss.

Impact Sigil Variant

Utility:
Usage
Necromancer's Spear is one of the less complicated spears. Most of your weapons skills build up stacks of a powerful lifesteal buff called Soul Shards Soul Shards that caps at six stacks. 
千疮百孔 consumes these stacks for a burst of damage and healing. 
腐坏纷争 and 
斩草除根 generate four and two stacks, respectively, so these are used for the first 千疮百孔. 
悲痛欲绝 generates six stacks, and so it is used both to recharge, and power the second 千疮百孔. You may gain different numbers of stacks depending on the number of enemies nearby, but this doesn't change your rotation.
Rotation
You want to cast both your Weapon Spells off cooldown while close to allies. You also want to cast 
支配苦痛 off cooldown, but bear in mind that the attack happens around your spirit, so make sure it is next to your target. The other F-skills can be saved for utility.
Opener
Start on Greatsword
分裂之器 and 
噩梦之器 - make sure not to cast these two early in raids, as the stacks will be removed by the boon strip

Shroud Loop
The Shroud Loop is the same each time. 
灵魂召集 causes your spirits to perform an extra attack if they're not still using their summon attack, so you want to use at least two autos between 
庇护灵魂 and 灵魂召集. At the same time, you want the attack from 灵魂召集 to be finished in time to cast 
苦痛灵魂 a second time without delaying it, which means using no more than three autos here.
- 苦痛灵魂 - Cast this first both to get the debuff on your target, and because we want to cast it twice before exiting Shroud

夜幕降临 as soon as you can, but otherwise the skill order doesn't matter on Greatsword as long as you don't interrupt the auto chain.

Below 50%
When your target is below 50% health, replace the auto chain on Greatsword with three 掘墓剑斩s (so you're using five each time).
