isn't this spell elite?

Its not elite, its regular Ritualist Restoration. It also lasts 45 seconds, not 60. So i edited that. - Neon

Usage

What use has this? :S Do you cast it when you go into a battle when you know you're going to get thrashed? — Skuld 02:27, 13 February 2006 (CST)

Who says you can't drop them right after casting? They are Bundles ;) --FireFox Firefoxav:22:49, 4 March 2006 (CST)
Yabbut look at the horrendous casting time. Light of Dwayna seems preferable to this. About the only use I can think of is for a R/Rt EoE carrier in an edge bomb team to pre-hold the ashes before running in. Yay no-brains fame farming! — Stabber 19:33, 18 March 2006 (CST)
Yes definitly the preferable spell for edge bomb, since you can precast it and get an instant rez after dieing, without having to bring a rezmer. --Xeeron 17:44, 29 March 2006 (CST)
Light of Dwayna has a 25 energy cost... This has 15e but 2 seconds more cast time --Life Infusion 14:34, 30 March 2006 (CST)

We don't know that it works on self yet, do we? --Karlos 19:25, 18 March 2006 (CST)

Properly, it is not a self-resurrection, the resurrection happens on droping the ashes. If the caster is holding them, and dies, drops the ashes and then resurrects. It is not a direct resurrection spell, there is not a self-resurrection skill in the game by which the caster may control when to resurrect.
Yeah, if it will rez yourself if you are holding it when you die, it would be the only self-rez in the game (... ignoring Divine Intervention). Besides, Light of Dwayna isn't even in Factions, which matters for PvE and for people who don't own Prophecies. --JoDiamonds 11:46, 29 March 2006 (CST)

It will self res. The same with the Ressurection Orb. LordKestrel 16:22, 29 March 2006 (CST)

The resurrection orb self-rezes? --Karlos 11:49, 30 March 2006 (CST)
Yes. — Stabber 12:02, 30 March 2006 (CST)
Unless you are the last man standing, I assume? Because in that scenario it didn't work. --Karlos 16:06, 30 March 2006 (CST)
Even then it did rez you, however the enemy team wins in the split second that you are dead. I think ANet changed the effect so that you are not rezzed after having lost a while ago. Before that people would indeed be rezzed and be alive after the other team already won in tombs matches. --Xeeron 19:07, 30 March 2006 (CST)

FURTHER NOTES

A tough paragraph still have to be written about this skill. Let's start some points:

(1) Who will be resurrected?

- Do not automagically resurrect the party! Resurrect deads IN THE AREA (i'll return on this concept below)

- Resurrect the holder because he is IN THE AREA. The center OF THE AREA to be precise.

(2) When will be resurrected?

- 2 seconds after ashes drop. Keep in mind: you do not resurrect when you drop. 2 seconds delay.

- If all party is dead you will see the 10 seconds count before res at nearest sanctuary. But you will not res there. You will be auto-ressed in place when count is 8.

- Resist the temptation to cast 2 seconds before someone die. He will not be res because he is not died at ashes drop. 2 seconds is a delay, again.

(3) What is THE AREA?

- Notice when you activate the skill that an area visual effect is showed. This is THE AREA EXTENSION for your information but not the FINAL AREA where resurrection will take place.

- So, if you equip the ashes far from battle, then rush over the corpse of your friends, drop it... you res your mates!

- The area around you WHEN you DROP the ashes IS the res AREA.

- You can rush into battle to drop ashes near your melee-line, but plz use your mind to capture the fact that if they need res it will mean you have no more a melee-line...

- Don't plan to be the last-man-standing. It's not feasible to run into the position to res a dead party when all mobs are against you.

- You can still chat with mates to convice them to return back when its time to die...

A NICE USE

There is one occasion you can use it to be SOMEONE.. and in a mid-game animation!

At "Vizunah Square" Mission, all party will be killed by Shiro during animation.

Cast Lively Was Naomei some secs before last mob is going to die in that mission. During the animation, all party will be killed, then you will res (you alone!) and be the last-one-standing when camera show the deadly panorama of your friend's corpses.
