I play a wizard and can cast any ritual spell I know out of combat without using up a spell cast slot. Even though the spell will list the cost as spell slot 1 or 2, it will cast without using the slot.
Out of combat, you just have to add the ritual spell to prepared spells, cast it then remove it and add another type of spell.
Other classes can add ritual spells as a perk at level 4.
(I made level 4 last night and looked into it when I saw the Ritual Spells perk. Wizards will not need to take this perk. They only need to learn/have ritual spells in their spell books.)
I play wizard 100%, need to spend some time investigating Ritual Spells. I think I saw something about rituals while leveling up, but glossed over it. I cast Fire Bolt all the time out of combat to light braziers and the like, but I don't think that's the same thing (cantrip). Currently level 4 as well.
Wizards are the best.
Also, I didn't know you could cast Flame Bolt to light braziers. I have been walking over and turn them on like a chump.
You can use Ray of Frost to turn them off too.
