An Afflicted Ritualist is an undead ritualist corrupted by the malevolent spirit of Shiro Tagachi. They are always encountered in a group with other Afflicted and it is essential that they be taken out early in a fight as they can resurrect other Afflicted (including Afflicted bosses). Alternatively, have interrupts ready and always monitor what Afflicted Ritualists in a group are doing.
