Do your PCs use Rituals regularly?

[hailstop]

My PC's don't. We've been playing 4e for almost a year now, but they've only used Remove Disease (twice), Remove Affliction (once) and Raise Dead.

I've suggested that they use them, especially now that they're 11th level and are capable of using some of the divination ones.

 

[Crothian]

Nope, I think they tend to forget about them.

 

[Nymrohd]

Yes, but (and here is the catch) I often include ritual reagents as part of treasure. So some times they don't get gold or art but valuable herbs or rare incense or alchemical substances.

 

[Fallen Seraph]

My PCs do, both just normally and for plot-lines. I find rituals are a great element to bring in to help with plot-lines.

Our group has only used them a few times. Once to repair an item, once for Gentle Repose, and I have created a few magic items, and disenchanted one.

The limitations (casting time and cost) are just too harsh. We even award reagents as treasure above the normal parcel allowances for gold.

regularly? no.
on occasion? sure.

 

[AngryMojo]

My PC's use them frequently. It's amazing that when you ride your players hard enough, they use every tool at their disposal to get through situations.

 

[the Jester]

Just about every game, though not quite, and they used 'em much less at lower levels (the party is now 11th-14th level).

My group has used at least Enchant Magic Item, Disenchant Magic Item, Sending, Fey Crossing, Remove Disease, Tenser's Floating Disc, Comprehend Languages... etc.

Last night's game, they used Linked Portal and Enchant Magic Item.

 

[Rel]

All the time.

It helps that I've designed a couple of my own as well as giving out ritual ingredients as treasure.

 

[Stalker0]

At low levels they didn't. Once my party's wizard hit around 9th he used them pretty frequently.
