Expert Ritualist
A Expert Ritualist can make use of and sometimes modify existing Rituals. With the right knowledge (Ritual Phenomenology and others), some existing Formulae can be increased in usability or potency. Their experience corresponds to Uncommon Knowledge – in most settings it must be sought out and developed. By default, the following Paths of Experience gain Expert Ritualist capability:

You can cast any class spell you know of that class as a ritual if that spell has the ritual tag and that spell is prepared in the appropriate Mystic Reservoir; The tag indicates it be cast following the normal rules for spellcasting, or the spell can be cast as a ritual. The ritual version of a spell takes 10 minutes longer to cast than normal. It also doesn’t expend a spell slot (from the Mystic Reservoir), which means the ritual version of a spell can’t be cast at a higher level.
