Blood Ritual (Previously named 'Ritual of Blood') is a Witch Doctor passive skill unlocked at Level 17, which allows the Witch Doctor to draw some of his mana costs from health, but also regenerates health.




Description

50% of Mana costs are paid with Life. In addition, you regenerate 1% of your maximum Life per second.

Lore

"To give of one's self. Is there any greater gift?" - Final words spoken at the Ritual of Blood

Level

Unlocked at Level 17.


Synergies

No synergies with any active skills or other passive skills are known.


Development

Passive skills have had a long and storied history. When Diablo III debuted at the WWI 2008, skill trees included passive skills, much like in Diablo II. In 2010, it was announced that passive skills had been renamed traits and separated out from active skills. At the July 2011 Press Event, Blizzard announced that passive skills were once again in the game, replacing the traits system. Like many passive skills, Ritual of Blood was moved directly from a level 15 trait of the same name when traits were changed back to passive skills in early 2011. For the Press Event, this passive was listed at level 18. For the beta, it was moved to level 17 and renamed Blood Ritual.

See the traits page for more details on previous versions of this and many other passive skills.
