Ritual buffs are very tedious. After every sleep I have to spam Longstrider on each member, and the delay inbetween casts is so frustrating. couldn't we just have ritual buff spells be a group buff?
D:OS2 also had this kind of issue, where some things just waste your time for no reason. Long cast times, single target etc when everyone knows we're just using these spells out of combat and on everyone.
Do ritual spells need to take up a spell slot? The idea is these are spells that cannot be cast in combat, they need time and preparation. If I am taking that much time I would have them in my spell tomb and could read them as I cast them.
If you cast longstrider with a higher level spell slot, you can select multiple targets at once. If you cast it outside of combat, you don't use that higher level slot, you just have to select it to increase the number of targets.
