Here is bit of talk regarding Master Ritualist passive that literally jsut another dead passive.
Said lot of time that having passive that not working incombat to actively benefit user is same like not having this passive at all. But lets see ressurect numbers: here coz without diminishing was turning templar ressurect into OP so zos added diminishes but as result passive effect suffered too much:



1. Ritualist reduce res by 1.2s. Meanwhile Kagrenac by 1.5s, Battle Resurrection by 1.8s. At same time those additional bonuses are useless, first - when ressing you already not spending mana coz you wasting it on ressurcet so you dont need this small restore once per millenia, secondly - this is last passive in lin and when people leveled to be be able to invest into it - they dont have empty soulgems nor they do need to fill them coz everything in overland drop filled soulgems already. I.e for exchange of additional bonus of filling gems and restoring mana main function of passive already perform worse than additional sources.
2. In PvP Ritualist + Alliance passive reduce res by 2.6s, i.e. stacking of those passives loose 0.4s diminishing. I.e. diminish of 30% of Ritualist itself.
3. Rit+ Kag reduce res by 2.4s, i.e. stacking of those loose 0.6s diminishing. i.e diminish of 50% of Ritualist passive itself.
4. Rit+Kag+Passive reduce res by 3.5s, i.e. stacking loose 1.0s diminishing. I.e. diminish that is like 80% of Ritualist passive itself.
^^^ Isnt you think that while passive operating with miliseconds, having diminishing that by defualt in PvP reduce effectiveness by so much miliseconds is too punishing?
5. Kag+Alliance reduce res by 2.8s, i.e. it loose 0.5s, i.e. diminishing is bigger for 0.1s than Rit+Allaince but total ressureect time is 0.2s faster. I.e. people who desire do dedicate themsleves to ressurect bot would be more effective with it than templar without Kag.
6. Anyone with alliance war passive would ressurect for 0.6s faster than templar without passive, and only 0.8 slower than tempalr with both passives. It like 0.2s to value effectiveness of tempalr vs non-templar for entire passive.
7. In PvE Kagrenac ressurect faster than Ritualist for 0.3s, i.e. anyone with Kag would ressurect faster than templar passive, will have actually viable passive that work in combat and get additional spd bonus from Kag. While Templar in Kag would win just 0.9s for res (not even straight 1.0s) while inexchange of this time he loose full bonus of passive that could be otherwise used proactivly in combat for either dps or helping with heals to prevent deaths. Imagine get 0.9s faster ressurect time with wasting on ressurect like 0.5% of combat time when you could have smth like for example 4% more healing 100% of time.
8. In PvP even worse - Templar fully setuped would do just 0.7s faster ressurect than any nontemplar with passive+kag. So templar loose entire proactive passive effect for just 0.7s faster ressurect.

Running non-templar ressurect-focused build is more effective. If people wants to focus on ressurect - they have options to do it effectively, while class passives should provide unique passive strength. This logic applied even to item sets when Kagrenac recieved huge (for that time) boost to spd as 5pc or Hanu having additional bonus as 5pc - bonus fully dedicated to pure ressurection has no value because it has zero effect on parses, etc.
And for templar it especially worse coz ressurect being class passive means no alternatives, no options.
Master Ritualist need to be changed into smth that actively helping in fight instead of adding marginal numbers to action that value failure of templar job and happens less than 1% time in combat.
