Need an expert Guild Wars player's advice.?

I recently started playing and I bought the Trilogy box set. I really don't have much knowledge yet as to what classes do what but I played WoW and loved healing. I was thinking of making a Monk Ritualist so I can heal and use the spirits for added DPS. I want to know if I have a good class combo here and if not if anybody has any suggestions to tweak it they will be much appreciated. Thanks!Need an expert Guild Wars player's advice.?
If you want to be a healer then Monk is definitely the class for you. Monk/Rt is a decent combo, but something in your question sounded wrong. You said you want spirits for extra DPS. As a monk, your job is to heal and/or protect your team, not generate DPS. Healing is a full time job and it will take every skill on your bar. Let the rest of your team worry about killing stuff.



In low level areas or if you're running with heroes and henchies then you can choose to be a smiter monk and add some damage to your bar. In the beginning areas, most any bar will be successful. Experiment and see what role you enjoy the best. However once you reach harder areas and especially in the Elite missions, you will need to be a full time monk.



/Rt is a good choice for the restoration line to enhance your healing.

/Mes is good for energy management.

/War for some defense.



Go with Rit for now. Once you progress a little ways into the campaign, you'll be able to change your 2nd profession at will. At that point you can experiment with different skills.
