Priest class quest

question

#1

LOOT: Book of Saints: Item, This luminous tome includes three complex rituals. One of the three can be performed each morning. Ritual of Life: For one day, one target cannot die, by any means. Ritual of Protection: For one day, one target takes half of any damage done to it. Ritual of Resurrection: Raise one dead ally per day. All rituals cause 8 HP Magical Damage to the caster.

I’m looking at the Alfheim class quests and was curious about this loot. Why would anyone pick Ritual of Protection over the Ritual of life?

Regards,
Alberaan

Because “cannot die” isn’t the same as “cannot lay there unconscious with 0 hp on the edge of death while everyone else dies”?

I’d for sure have my “cannot die” PC still need greater than 0 HP to be functional, ie move and act.

Didn’t think about that. Thanks!
