Owen: Added comment about validity of current page

-"Optimal success rate for a priest is obtained around 40-45 channeling." what am I reading here? this makes no sense

I'm not sure about this either.--[[User:Doughboy|Doughboy]] 06:29, 14 January 2011 (UTC)

The guide is seriously out of date, I have talked to a number of priests in game in an attempt to gather enough info to bring it up to date, but I am not an expert in the subject (yet) --[[User:Owen|Owen]] 07:17, 17 January 2011 (GMT)

Alignment

Owen: Small edito to add links to Priest types

[[CDB|Main]] / [[Religion]] / '''Alignment'''

===Description===
Alignment is a measure of how good you are to your god, 100 alignment being maximum for [[Fo]], [[Vynora]] and [[Magranon]], -100 for [[Libila]]. When having below 1 alignment, you cannot choose any of the [[White Light]] [[Gods]]. For [[priest|priests]], a high alignment value increases chances to successfully cast [[:Category:Spells|spells]] while a low alignment value lowers the chances. Alignment is also said to affect your fighting ability, but it is unknown by how much ([http://wurmonline.com/forum/index.php?topic=28321.msg276734#msg276734 source]).

Alignment will automatically go towards 1 over time for whitelighters, and -1 for blacklighters.

When it goes down it will drop at a value equal to 1-([[Faith]]/200). Thus, at 0 faith one would lose 1.0 alignment and at 100 faith one would lose 0.5 alignment.
This loss is halved in local range to the White light for white lighters.

If your alignment drops below 1 as a whitelighter, you will lose your faith.

===These actions can effect your alignment:===
* Butchering a human corpse (- 1)
* Burying a human corpse (+ 1)
* Listening to a [[confession]] (+/- 1)
* Confessing to a priest (+/- 5)
* Holding a [[sermon]] (+/- 1)
* Listening to a sermon (+/- 1 or more, depends on preaching success)
* Converting someone to your religion (+/- 1)
* Healing someone else (+ 1)
* Successful Lockpicking (-5)
* Casting [[Bless]] on [[spirit guard]]s or [[tower guard]]s. (+ 1)
* Sacrificing items in an [[altar]] (at least worth 50c get price) (+/- 1)
* Praying at the [[White Light]] on the [[Wild server]]. (+ 3)
* Praying at the [[Black Light]] on the Wild server. (- 3)
* Desecrating an altar (- 2)
* Killing of a [[whitelighter]] (- 5)
* Killing of a [[blacklighter]] (+ 5)
* [[Fo]] special: plant a sprout (+ 1)
* [[Vynora]] special: pave a tile (+ 1)
* [[Vynora]] special: working on walls (+ 0.5)
* [[Magranon]] special: mine (+ 0.5)
* [[Magranon]] special: kill a creature (+ 0.5)
* [[Libila]] special: kill a creature (- 0.5)
(numbers with a positive (+) are good for whitelighters and negatives (-) respectively good for blacklighters)

Gaining alignment to your choosen side has a cooldown timer. Once you gained alignment you have to wait 30 minutes before you can gain again.

Channeling

[[CDB|Main]] / [[Religion]] / '''{{PAGENAME}}'''

[[Channeling]] is the [[skill]] used in the casting of [[:Category:Spells|spells]] in order to enchant [[item]]s. You will need to be a [[priest]] and have your god's [[statuette]] activated in order to channel.

Success in channeling is determined by your channeling skill, your alignment and the [[quality]] level of the item you are casting on.

===Tips for early skilling===
* Fo priests should concentrate on blessing and [[healing]] until 10 channeling, then focus on enchanting [[Pottery flask|flask]]s of [[water]] with [[Fo's Touch]].
* Vynora priests should bless things until 15 channeling, then [[Opulence]] [[meal]]s/food items until 40 channeling (The quality of the food affects the chance to succesfully cast Opulence, so a high [[quality]] food results in less fails), then use either [[Vynora's Touch]] on flasks of water or the various item augmentations ([[Circle of Cunning]], [[Wind of Ages]], [[Frostbrand]] etc)
* Magranon priests should bless objects until 5 channeling, then enchant flasks of water with [[Magranon's Shield]]
* Libila priests should bless objects until 5 channeling, then use the drain spells on a penned animal until 15 channeling, then enchant flasks of water with [[Libila's Scale]]
* Using a higher quality statuette is not known to affect success chance or skillgain if it is augmented with [[Circle of Cunning]].

High channeling skill gives increased success rate. Optimal success rate for a priest is obtained around 40-45 channeling.

* Conduit at 70 skill
* Casting specialist at 90 skill
